Best water based metallics for airbrushing?
D1fuN0 replied to ST3Black's topic in Vehicle Discussion
Hi Steve. AK Extreme Metals are excellent Have you thought of looking at the Tamiya Range? Their Acrylics are excellent and the quality is 100%. Always guaranteed that the colour you buy in 2 years time is the same as the one you are using now. Worth a look. Mad Steve- 21 replies

Morning Chaps This all smells a bit like bullpoo doesn't it... I've been using Gravity Paints EU for about 4 years now, have ordered multiple times, they have all arrived within a week and have never had an issue with any of the colours. I've never had grainy paint, I've never had to thin it down and actually never had any of the issues that people are talking about, and I still have some of the first colours that they issued. In fact I'll go as far as to say that I still have yet to find someone that does have an issue(s) that have been mentioned. I had one small issue, and that was a broken lid, and a new bottle of paint and a small gift was sent as a replacement, again within a week. I do like using Zero paints, even tho they are hard to come by here, but I prefer using Gravity. They seem smoother, and as said before the flakes seem to be to scale and they just seem to be easier to use (my opinion) I'm sure this is not the last we have heard of this battle Mad Steve

Afternoon Chaps To be quite honest, I use nothing but the 'chinese knockoffs'. I started on one of those badger single actions in the blister packs, which is ok, if you want a paint thrower (just my opinion) but it taught me the basics. The el cheapo's here are sold by a company called Air Craft. Spare parts are available and I have only had to change o rings on the trigger on one of them. They really do work just fine, perfect for me. I have four of them (all gravity feed) and the oldest I bought probably 8 years ago. I was also given an Iwata HP-M mini airbrush which is quite natty, but only really use it for touch ups or 72nd scale as its a single action. The thing I like the most, If one does pack up, Its cheap enough to just buy a replacement. Mad Steve

Hellooooo Chrissy, there is a Tamiya Racing Mini (green one on the box), that has wider racing wheels in it. As for a Transverse replacement, cant actually think of anything at the mo.... Golf engine too big?
-
Hi Matt The Tamiya Nismo Z Tune is quite nice, (As is the normal V spec II), but The Aoshima Top Secret version has quite a few extra's included in the kit. I cant recall one that actually has an engine, but there's a crowd called Eighty-One that does a full resin engine, as does Hobby Design.

Hi Cratecruncher. It is being released as both pre coloured and normal assembly
-
Yes, Yawn you'll say.... Been there, done that... Is it better than the Tamiya one.... Well for one thing, its bigger
