Default RE: Using Testors Modelmaster paint.

Thank you guys,

On the bottom of the fuselage and wings I will be using HVLP for the light gray portion and the primer stage, on the rest of the model I will be patiently using a Badger compressor and a Model Master detailing airbrush. I will then use a medium size nozzle to draw the cammo pattern, and then proceed to use the large nozzle to "fill in the pattern". I have already used this detailing gun and works awesome on small jobs, like painting wheel doors in place, I have even painted the scale gear on y BVM F-16 in place.

With so many colors and my cammo, I figure 3 bottles of each of the 4 colors should be sufficient, and very affordable too. It would cost me a lot more to have the auto shop match the colors on 1or 1/2 pint bottles of Omega, or Centari. Not to mention all the paint that will be unused/wasted.

This will be one awesome paint job. Will keep you posted.
