I'm using Tamiya acrylics white (and also yellow). Sadly due to the color specifics (or pigments) it's realy hard to achieve a perfect coverage in just one coat. AmmoMig OneShot Primer white gives nice white finish.

Hi, thanks for replying 👍👍
Really appreciate the advice... I'm only a year in the hobby so tips really help 😃

I love working with Tamiya acrylic paints as they are very easy to brush on and very forgiving when airbrushed. Color choice is limited but this is when and where other brands come handy. My first choice to go for would be Ammomig and or AK Real Colors. Ammo comes in bottles ready to be airbrushed straight away where AK (and tamiya) need to be thinned before airbrushing. Oh, Mr Color/GunMetal is also worth noting.

Mr D
Brilliant 👍👍 thanks for that .

I find tamiya white primer to be the best… but it's not airbrushable, it's rattlecan.

Made a start on the 1/32 Trumpeter F4F-4 Wildcat, I'm having my wings permanently folded, this is just all dry fitted so far, I'll add more detail later when the wing is added. No point cleaning up the inside part of the wing of ejection holes, as this will be hidden behind the wing. Think it looks ok so far.

So today I've semi painted up the other sides wing root fold system. And started dry fitting the engine. Need to pick a scheme from the Techmod decals at some point, thinking of 1 or 4 so far.

Ooh landing gear and engine support structure. Just needs a few touchups, thats it done for now, have to glue it all up straight away, doing it later would be a pain in the ass. Looks ok, I'm no expert on these things. Just for fun build in-between other stuff.
