Michael KohlWe all love a good fight and this kit fought you hard. But - man you came out the winner - with flying colors I´d say.
Great overall look. IMHO you nailed it.

gorbyWOW! Considering the decal nightmare you've managed to bring this one across the line a winner. Fabulous result.

NicolasGreat. If the kit dosn't want to end up like you want just do something else with it. 👍

SkyhikerWhat a story. Well played. I'm glad you won that one. Excellent work. What did you use to do the dust coating?
11 July, 09:21
Ant RiccoHey @Skyhiker - thanks so much - the dust was Tamiya XF-57 Buff - very thinned and airbrushed lightly over.

Volker LudwigHi modelers
have a question about paints:
bought at a shop some several colors of 100 ml containers of
ARTISTS SHEEN ACRYLIC
it`s written water based, ideal for canvas, wood, metal, glass, ceramic, polystyrene, wax, paper,
otherwise very little information, it was very viscous so I mixed some water in - it became solid hard after some days.
Obviously it doesn`t want to be mixed with water, Turpentine seems not to work too.
What to do?

Spanjaardturpentine would certainly not work with acrylics. it is for enamels. If water did not work, I would try with the thinner of the same brand, or isopropyl alcohol.
100ml bottles seem to be paint for other artists purposes, and may not give the best results on kits, even if they are supposed to stick on plastic. Brands for mofellers tend to try to sell much smaller containers.
genericacrylic may work on kits ( some people even use real automotive paints, with some special precautions since they may melt plastic if used directly), but they may present some extra challenges....
