I bought one of the new Humbrol 18 ml acrylics and it feels like they are pre thinned for airbrush. I could spray it right from the bottel. Is this correct?
Best to use the same brand thinner for the paint as they are obviously designed to work together. There's always the chance that one manufacturer has a weird thinner or paint that doesn't play nice.
Imho...since you degrease sprues, you should avoid touching them afterwards to not transfer any grease from your fingers (like you did). Anyway, good primer is best solution to skip deagreasing process.
Yippee!!!!! I love these tutorials they are so motivating and inspiring, Kit now ordered and trying to order paints now.
Thanks guys and hope you enjoy this series - I've tried to include as many tips as I can to help. Best wishes, Geoff C.
Excellent video - Thanks
Wow those books look really good might have to pick a few up
I was actually going to ask how felt about washing the sprues - never heard anyone who advised doing that using Isoproponol before.
You seldom hear modellers talking about reference nowadays, when it was THE thing back in the Airfix Magazine days.

What’s the difference between the Tamiya X20A and the Humbrol thinner?
X20A is dedicated for acrilic paints

Is there a pilot?

The Zero was a vastly superior machine to the Wildcat - a bit cheeky that artwork.
Can you drag this out any longer?? Don’t care about the description of the kit. Just show the paint!!
Not a word about paint droppers. Click bait.
