Which paints do you use?

[Embolden]

I use a mix of every thing! basically whatever I can get my hands on.

Yes Quick shade. I just dunked the whole mini in it. No messing about. Just do it outside!

I second halfords sprays. It takes longer to dry but much cheaper if you don't airbrush.

I only really use Vallejo Model Air paints - before joining the club I did alot of WWII model building which involved quite a bit of Air Brushing.

My 40k Catachans were done using about 95% Vallejo Model Air, and my Fow US Troops will most likely be done in 100% Vallejo products.

I also use the Vallejo Primer, Varnish, Airbrush Cleaner, Thinner, Pigments and Washes with no problems.

I have tried a few other products like GW, Humbrol, Tamiya, etc. but found that once I had worked out the quantities of paint to thinner, etc I was getting my best results with the Vallejo products.

I would like a look at what you have done and a chat so you can help my efforts.
