and yeah one more thing, enamel needs its own thinner right? can i use my mr. hobby thinner?

each type of paint base has it's own thinner ...... for enamel if u cant find its thinner then u can replace it with zippo lighter fuel .... but note zippo drys up very fast

hi... for panel lining i use a technical drawing pen... you can get any of these from any art shops... the tip sizes ranges from 0.1 to 1.0...
the one that i'm using it 0.2...

ink for these pens come in either cartridges or bottled ink... mostly india ink which is waterproof... but i find that i can still remove then with a cotton bud or eraser (rubber)... probably because it's on plastic... i have not tried it with models which i have painted or applied primer/surfacer yet...

also... i use different types of paint with my type of applications... lacquer paints uses thinner as solvents while acrylic paints use water etc etc... with this in mind, it would make your painting easier....

e.g. you paint the whole part with (lacquer paint) white... and then you start to touch up with (acrylic paint) blue... if you make a mistake, all you have to do is to immediately wash it off with water and still retain the base white...

i'm not too good with painting yet... but that's my knowledge on why people use them... smile.gif

having said that... i'm still having a hard time applying a coat of acrylic paint evenly on my kits... i'm guessing that it would be easier if i had a layer of primer... anyone care to enlighten me? tongue.gif

errr .... once acrylic dry u cant remove it with water .... use cloth detergent to remove acrylic paint will be easier

if u find hard to apply paint on ur kit an easy way is to use high grade sand paper to sand ur kit once so that the paint can have better grab on ur kit ....

hmm... i'll try that... what's the grade that you would recommend?

also... sry if i wasn't clear abt washing off the acrylic paints... when i mentioned immediately, i meant when the paint was still wet... i find that using glass cleaners and a tootbrush works well when the acrylic paints are dry...

err... noob (or stupid) question here... can do weathering using pencil 2b?

as for lining, i'm using GM01... but it only work great for "longkang" because can wipe off the spilled part.. but for edges, the lining can disappear if trying to clean it by finger or cotton bud...

any tips?

2b pencil? i oso use that...but i noob... this my way of "weathering"(seriously, i duno wad im doing,it jus looks cool and it makes the certain part of my gundam smell rusty...lol.)...but for small parts oni most of the time... i use the gold gundam marker... paint one layer ...thn i paint ovr again... the paint will go like no smooth... i take a toothpick and smoothen it .... and instead some parts of the colour will cme off...and some parts look like its bulgy(co the paint)... thn i use pencil and shade certain areas...and it smells rusty...lol...

PS: i love ur username... blackorange... coz i call myself blackzest in my blog and i love black and orange...lol...

Well its been almost a decade since i made any models... blush.gif
But i guess u mean weathering effect like dust and dirt and a lil rust ?

I used to do that using pastel chalks. Did great for my panzer models with diorama. Sweet stuff as long as u don't hold it too often. Details like real but wears off easily. Applied on "painted" models with a thin brush...usually those tiny tipped ones...and the process is looooong sweat.gif
After tat the model is basically a see-no-touch model smile.gif
But i guess a top coat won't do any harm besides looking a lil fake lor laugh.gif
