Hey gang.
I'm painting up a storm right now. Finishing up a Captain Marvel custom and I ran out to buy some metallic blue for her suit. I went with Testors Model Master Acryl because I kept hearing how great it is, but I got to say, I'm not impressed at all. For me, it's brushing on really poorly, poor adhesion and the paint is behaving more like an ink once it meets plastic. I'm puzzled since I kept hearing how nice it was to work with. I have a bunch of Vallejo right not that I like all right, but I'm looking for a little more. Is Tamiya at all okay? Is there a secret about Testors I don't know yet?
any advice on how to work with this stuff would be great.
Cheers.
