Paul, since this thread is still active I will ask my question here. I've just re-watched your 2 part run through of paints and was wondering, since there are a number of new paints on the market (and on your paint rack!), would you recommend different paints than you did in 2013?

Thanks,
DBM

Hi
A few questions from a newbie if that's ok?
I only just starting with this so be gentle eh?
Can I paint one colour of a camouflage in enamel and then paint the next touching colour in acrylic?
I bought some Humbrol Clear which I now know is acrylic based, could I still use it over an enamel coat?

Sorry, but I have a lot to learn.

I have a question, and it may have been asked and answered already, but I am going to ask anyways.

So I have been looking for the Mr Hobby Aqueous paints and have not been able to find a website that has them in stock and will ship to the US.
My question is this, is the My Hobby H2 a water based paint? Isn't that what the Aqueous paints are? I am just looking for some clarification on the Mr Hobby paint lines. Thank you for any information :th:

Lee/Paul

Thank you very much for these videos.

I wonder if you could maybe help me with a problem I've recently come across using Vallejo Model Air...I posted about it here
http://www.intscalemodeller.com/viewtop ... 55&t=13989

I just don't know what I did wrong. I have had no problems at all using/thinning my Tamiya paints and this was the first time I used the Vallejo Model Air (my wife bought me two box sets for my birthday) and I'm scared to use them again.

Any help would be appreciated.
