| quick question
I got 4 Wild Willy Drivers I want to paint up by hand I see Tamiya makes a Flat Flesh color XF-15 is the Tamiya number the question is it comes in Enamel and Acrylic which is better ??? which is better to paint small detail like Willy Face Normally have always used enamel since I started building models back when I was a kid I have used Acrylic once and it was way too thick and just didn't seem to stick like enamel does just wanted to hear what other people are using they look like different shades the only way to tell is paint a little and see what it looks like dried and cured Last edited by kgb424; 02-04-2016 at 03:40 PM. |

I just use modeling paint for mine. But the watery feel of the enamel is a plus IMO. The key is in the shading. That's where washes come into play to give it depth.

| Re: quick question Personally i find acrylics easier to work with and clean up but 110% right on the shading utilizing washes to enhance moulded in details and low points to really make it pop |
