Just curious about the application of the aluminum paint prior to adding the top coat colors. I was thinking you might lay down some chipping fluid on those areas to support a demonstration on chipping the Atom paints.
Thank you so much for your comment, of course you can also use varnish if you prefer. We like to present as many options as possible to the community, but modelers should use the option with which they are most comfortable. Have a great day, Jamie, AMMO Team
No, it's to knock down the scale and build up and pile of particulates from the airbrush at that scale. Hit a paint job with either a small piece of 1800 wet/dry or a 2200 grit Emory cloth after the paint has cured and you'll see a big difference with 1/72nd models.
Very impressed. I'm moving away from enamel / Lacquer based products and have been looking for an acrylic product line. I ordered several Atom basic colors to try out, see if I like them. Looking forward to using them on my next build. BTW, any chance in the future you'll be releasing paints in the "FS" (federal standard) range?

I like how the ATOM airbrushed with 1:1 in thin layers, is better than the AK GEN3 paint, but the real pain and shame is the completely inaccurate color rendition of many of the famous well-known colors like RLM02 and RLM71 from this review... Also I don't understand why acrylic paint manufacturers don't make satin and gloss themed paints for aircraft painting and make them super matte, this is fine for painting armored vehicles, however it is very impractical for aircraft as you need to apply a thicker coat of gloss varnish to get a good transfer decals and fill the panel lines with washes, thus degrading the surface quality and losing fine details (((
The paint job is very good, but the colors are not right. Captain Wilhelm Meyerweissflog 109 was painted gray, RLM 74 - 75. The red band was only on the sides of the hood, not between the machine guns and not on the underside. The spinner was only painted white on a quarter of the plane.
@@epicforger12345 - Indeed! As are MRP paints, but the ATOM paints are also terrific for airbrushing, in spite of what that guy says. He obviously has never tried them or lacks airbrushing experience.

They look great. On the other hand, using a coat of varnish is easier than polishing a painted surface!

And the ATOM paints are polishable?
10 minute cure before safe handling and masking? Where was this when I was a kid?
👍👍
Unfortunately the Early WWII RAF set just released contains some generic colours which are a poor match to the actual colours.
Only down side at the moment. Colour accuracy is poor.

Dios mio...
You sure aren't going to freehand camo with these paints. It sure don't atomize well.
Mr color paints are great for doing freehand camo
That's simply not true.
Sounds like skill issue.

That's just not true, the metallic and RLM 65 paints looked rough but they were unthinned, the mottle was and it looked perfectly fine
