@yoncha

sshhhh...



Pero I wonder if the average airbrush can adapt to the viscosity of construction grade flat laquer kay usually kanang dako man nga spraygun ang gamiton.

You can't use latex paint on your airbrush.. proven na na. barado dayon heh..

come to think of it, i'll not try it anymore... the laquer thinner alone will turn my Gundams and plastic miniatures into Pokemon's Muk.

kato lang mga plastic nga frame ba... :P how do call that? pwde man siguro.

painted using acrylic tamiya paint mix with acrylic thinner, gamit airbrush, wa naman mi nagbutang coating, but sa uban na details amo giprint sa computer, we spray it with a clear coating napalit namo sa ace... ang name kay RJ (naay f1 car sa paint can) dull lacquer, acrylic epoxy paint... tag 100+ ra.

@ AE92:

I'm aware that a flat finish looks better as compared to a glossy finish. so what do you recommend as a finishing material?
