I went to a general store. They wouldn't let me buy anything specifically.

So I have had the chance to use the new Citidel "washes". They absolutely suck in comparison to the old inks. Not really sure what they were thinking when they decided to make that change, but it is not for the better.

Hey guys,
Was just curious if it's fine to use Tamiya Spray Cans (the ones designed for plastic model kits) on statues made from Super Sculpey.
Also, how well will Humbrol enamel paints work with super sculpey statues (thinning and brushing)?

on resin statues/kits i use americana and delta creative cereamacote...thinned with water and air brush thinner. on canvas, clothing, leather, and other surfaces i was told that createx is very good...i havent used the createx yet. what i love about painting statues/kits with the americanas and delta creative ceramcote they dry to a nice flat matte finished and when sealed with testors dull coat they look even better. also, i have the tubed liqutex acrylic paints ...i do not use them on statues/kits because they dry to a satin finish, and the dull coat does not matte/dual it down i only use these when iam painting canvas.

for the past couple of months i have been using chalk pastels to shadow my repaints and kits..you can almost get the same effect of an air brush. well as of today i got my new aztek double action air brush with 6 interchangeable tips, and a new iwata studio smart jet compressor...so time to get busy and painting...i have to say the model mania dvds from david fisher are great!!...also all the advice from my great friends mike and joe..thanks!!! |

I know this is late but there is no way that i could use an air brush on this.
The detail would have been lost if i airbrushed it.
5 shades,3 skin tones,and 3 highlights.
Then about 4 layers of watered down blacks and browns.
A lot of blending.
