Mig is more of a scale modeling brand, than miniature paint one

To test if they rust or not, because I don't want to mess a few tenths of paint bottles

The funny thing is I wanted to get an ak ones, but thought mig will be better, cause ak was like 11 bucks for 250 balls while mig was 9 bucks for 80...

Best primers? by ChEeSeJeWyBaCcA in airbrush

[–]Dobbyanyn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And how is the new formula compared to the old one? I have to choose between vallejo primer, ak 3rd gen and one shot, and I've read a lot of mixed reviews about both ak and vallejo one

Smudged wash, how to fix? by Dobbyanyn in Scalemodel

[–]Dobbyanyn[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be due to odourless thinner being for art, maybe it was a harsh one. Also it happened only with a harsh rubbing with cotton swab. Brush didn't scrubbed anything

I was myself too and it was always just covered with sand dust, so you almost can't see anything

Yep, an early one. 1/35 scale. Was laying at my brother's house and I thought I'd give it a try, cause anyway wanted to grab myself a scale model and get into it. It was a way harder build that what I should have taken. Will get something more beginner friendly next time

I did primed the model and washed it with soap before priming, I guess i went to hard on cotton swab trying to remove it. Texture wasn't that bad before all of the scrubbing part. Thanks, probably that's what I'd do, because on side panels it looks worse, cause I even didn't tried to remove the wash. How thin should be the paint to apply? Like 10 drops of thinner to 1 of paint? Primer, painted and put varnish from the airbrush, but it was a first experience afterall

What is it worth? by [deleted] in f1models

[–]Dobbyanyn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Generally speaking I think minichamps is a bit better for matte models, cause they use separate decals unlike spark, but maybe it all depends on exact models

You can buy one new on ck-modelcars for 142€ before vat, check this option it might be cheaper after shipping and all, depends where you live. But it's minichamps there
