You should mention with a respirator, use the appropriate cartridges for paint. When buying replacement cartridges, there are dust cartridges & cartridges for paint fumes. They're 2 different filters. Also not all Acrylics are true water based paints. Reading he label will inform you. If there is a flame symbol on the label, store & use as a solvent paint. I've had (although extremely rare) acrylic paint curdle or become useless, unsprayable with water as a thinner. I also don't recommend using alcohol as a thinner. It may react with the paint, dry too fast when sprayed, ruin paint, not adhere right or get a powdery texture to the paint finish (& is a fire hazard) This I like for steam or diesel engine soot on tunnel portals & engine house entrances. (Tamiya flat black is my favorite for this.).

@kenepee2153 2 года назад

You guys actually answer my question, thank you very much🙇🏻‍♂️! I wish soon someone will explain the "🥚 vs 🐔" question of the modeling world: Which process should we do first, gluing&assembling or painting the part(s)? Alright, again, thanks guys. Take good care out there🙏🏻

@peterbrown3608 2 года назад

Personally like the sub-assembly method, where you work out in advance what parts of the model don't need to be glued together until after painting. I watch a lot of RU-vid videos where modellers build the entire kit, including all the small parts (tools, external machine guns, etc...) then prime and paint it. I prefer to keep things off the kit until they actually need to be on it, that way I can paint them separately, but again, as they say, it's all a matter of preference and what you're comfortable with.
