Buy all the decals. They’re easy to hide from concerned partners.

It’s ok Sayla- he’s right here with me. He says he’s fine, and glad he didn’t have to go to Jaburo, actually.

100%- Even the good white (Pro Acryl Bold Ti) paint is a pain in the ass, and white primers are tend towards chalky/gritty.

If I had to paint white over colored plastic I would probably do something like paint it silver first.

Brush painting white, you have my sympathy

I think yes, but I hear the Japanese may disagree

It won’t replace Mr Surfacer (jar) but I’ll continue using it on less try-hard projects to save Mr Surfacer

I heard some recs for Krylon Colormax Paint + Primer from scale modelers so I tried that on a project recently. It was… alright. I hate spraycans, and it took more than 24 hours to cure. But had good coverage and leveling. They have a more medium gray and an almond.

Same… i keep buying HGs because I like the subject and wishing I was working in 1/100 the whole time.

It got so bad I closed the app and months ago and never looked back. Kind of a shame because a lot of cool international builders shared really need work, but so much English language posting was toxic. Shame Reddit so is aggressively stupid, and bsky needs more posters.

It’s also told by overlong, unpausable cut scenes that somehow draw my wife from 100 yards and cause her to coversate at me.

Nice. I shot some Tamiya LP (jar lacquer) recently and wish it was blue-er. Maybe I didn’t go far enough, but it’s good to know decanting a can might be an option.

Aww yessss. That blue is gorgeous! Is that a Vallejo clear blue?
