Tig, Do not worry comrade It will continue! Gary, your google french always cheer me up bro! Don't stop I've sprayed a couple of flat coat on the rust bucket...I can assure you all I used the tam stuff for the last time. I never get the ''flatness'' I want and it does those crappy white spots that I have to clean with thinner  I was wondering what do you guys use for the flat coat? I am going to buy some this week according to your suggestions. Got some pigments on the mgs. Next is streaking and some grime I think.  flat01 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr  flat05 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr  flat04 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr  flat03 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr  flat02 par asmodeuss, sur Flickr This is where I am peeps.

Thanks Gag. Yvan got some mad mojo! I think I just hooked myself on the whole SCI-FI scene. I am roaming the internet for a good base for a Jules Verne-esque submarine kit.

Wow Boots, Thanks for the awesome comment BroManDudeG. Thank you my friend! What do you use for flat?..Tamiya stuff really does not make it anymore...Pretty fed up with the mixing ratio... Phil, i know what ya mean bro, I got tired of the guessing game myself. GOOD NEWS....Brother Big John talked me into using Testors DullCote Lacquer and OH MAN, i love that stuff! Phil, you can spray it all day and it wont turn white/frost on ya. It takes about 24hrs. before you start washes, fading and the like, but well worth the effort. You must use a quality Lacquer thinner like Klean-Strip or Crown to mix with. I think you will love it.....hassle free bro!!!! www.modelcars.com/dullcote-lacquer-clear-coat.html |

I use Vallejo 100% Acrylic Resine. Purrfect finish - either sprayed for larger subjects or brushed for smaller ones. Shaken, not stirred. |
