discussion Does model color need thinning?

[Guest]

So iv been using vallejo model color and tend to thin it a little. Does it really need thinning as no matter what i do it seems to be too thin.

Hi Scott I always thin it with water if I'm using a brush or with thinners if I'm using my airbrush. I tend to build it up in thin layers ask think you get a better finish that way
If its model air I usually just use it straight from the bottle

Hi Scott,

I am the same, thin with water for brush use or with Vallejo airbrush thinner for spraying.
