27.12.2023 20:53 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Mate believe it or not Iβm having problems as we speak trying to find alternative colours. conversion charts are a minefield. Then once your sorted with your conversion trying to find a shop or site that has all the colours you need is a problem as well
27.12.2023 20:49 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Firstly I start with the colour call out in the box. Then try and match as close as I can to that. But my last build I could gone RLM02 ( 1938 ) or as I did RLM02 (1941) the earlier one is more Gray and the later is more Green. But I always start with what the call out says
27.12.2023 20:38 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Yes mate AK 3G acrylic, where I can I try and buy single bottles but I have bought one pack for my last build just because it had two bottles of right RLM 02 in it that I needed

19.12.2023 17:07 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Thank you Tom very kind of you to say so, Iβm not confident enough to mix/thin paints for airbrushing although Iβve never tried neither ( I think itβs a dark art π€£ )
18.12.2023 07:07 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0I would highly recommend it Tom itβs a beautiful kit went together really well no real issues apart from seam lines. It looks more complicated than it actually is. It was Straight forward. I would build the wheels/carriage section firstly then the gun ( if I done it again )
18.12.2023 07:03 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Alright Tom. I donβt thin any of my paints just give them a good shake or stir. then I apply 2/3 coats depending on if I can still see brush strokes. I use a small amount of paint and cover a small area at a time rather than try to cover a big surface area in one go if that makes sense.
18.12.2023 06:59 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Thank you mate. All my models are brush painted. Havenβt tried a airbrush got no desire too either
