Do you not use the acrylic thinner when airbrushing? Just flow improver?
@NotSoAverageBuilder2 ай бұрын
Yup, I have used thinner but it makes the paint dry too quickly for my taste. With flow improver I can get a much smoother surface because it allows the paint to settle much more before drying.

Hi,can thin with mr hobby colour thinner?or only thin with water,d.Do i need to add tamiya paint retarder? Thank you.
@NotSoAverageBuilder3 ай бұрын
As long as the MR hobby thinner you’re using is for acrylics you can. The enamel thinner will cause major issues with a lot of properties of the paint. Again with the paint retarder you want to make sure it is an acrylic safe one. I mostly use the Valejo flow improver even when hand brushing to thin the paints

Honestly kinda both, mostly when it’s a kit I’ve never built before I’ll snap it together to see where seam lines are that I need to address and where parts line up that way it gives me a mental road map of how the kit will look and this also gives me ideas on color separation.

I would stay away from siphon feeds because that are a pain to clean and keep clean.

I'm glad I came across this video, although old. I'm having the same problem with the 1/100 NG Astray Amatsu Golden Frame kit. I hate the plated gold and want to remove it so I can repaint it with gold enamel myself. I wouldn't think primer and paint would stick to the plating very well so it needs to come off. I'm going to try soaking my parts in Blue Wolf or Purple Stuff.
@NotSoAverageBuilder Жыл бұрын
It was definitely one of my more “beginner” videos lol but I tried a bunch of different solvents to see what would take the plating off. This older kit’s plating acted strange like it didn’t want to come off even with the various solvents that many people recommended. I may get another kit and try a few more solvents to see what can take it off easier.

It really depends on how “bad” the area is you’re sanding down. If it’s just some nub marks then 600-800grit and then go up by 200-400 grit. Just remember!!! If you sand on the coarser grit for 30 seconds you sand twice as long with your next grit and keep going.

Liquitex make a Airbrush Thinner for acrylic paint. Also Vallejo makes their Airbrush Thinner. Both are designed to thin paint while keeping opacity and bonding of the paint. Ratio of 5 parts paint, 4 parts Thinner. Flow improver is good for reducing tip dry and is mixed in as 1 or 2 drops.

I have the Raser v1.5 and the plus glass files. They are my go to files and I find them indispensable along with their balancer polishing sponges. The balancer is much like the UMP gloss buffing pads, but they do a better job. The Raser glass files are different from any other glass files I've used with their micro bumps that do a fantastic job of removing styrene and polishing it at the same time. I bought Infini glass files and they do not perform like the Rasers. I think those are intended to be used like traditional files as they don't do a finer polish of the surface. But, the gate removal kit performs extremely well and I love it. At $45 dollars, it isn't cheap, but I find it well worth the price. The balancers by themselves aren't expensive.
