QUOTE(Parody @ Mar 21 2010, 09:49 PM) You should ask in the modding thread... but here's what i can tell you. sorry for this thread ...but Thanks Q very much !!!You don't need to mix thinner into Mr Hobby Color. If the paint is too thick or dries up too quickly, add a drop of Mr Retarder (about 5%) in the paint. Thinner could be substituted but use an even lesser amount because if you use more than that, it eats into the first layer of paint when you apply the second layer of paint. Or if you put too much, like what you did, it becomes so watery that you can't even paint. Using handbrush, usually 2 layers would be sufficient, although sometimes you wanna additional layers to cover the brushstrokes. If you're painting light color on a dark base (like white on dark blue), you obviously need more layers. Mr Surfacer or primers are used to show uneven surfaces so that you can repair them. Not really necessary unless you've done some modding on the kit. And yes, you can use it as base color as well so that lighter colors can cover over easily.  i would like to ask ..now still got sell BB buster gundam ma ...where i can find o.O? |
