discussion Mr Aqueous and Mr Acrysion

[nikoaziz]

I'm a new modeler and Im trying to find new brush paints brand that are cheap, but still good, and I come across Mr Aqueous and Mr Acrysion. Can these paints be applied with a brush? Should I get a special Mr Colour thinner or is water enough? Should I still use a wet palette as well? What are the differences between the two versions? Any reccomended paint-to-thinner ratio?

GSI Creos has instructions for appropriate brush painting additives on their paint chart. Suggest you look at that for a definitive answer and the cautions direct from GSI Creos. You can find the chart here:

Whilst they can both be applied by brush, I'd say there are much more appropriate paints available if that is your main method, ie you are not airbrushing as much as possible.

Vallejo model or game color, or the AK 3rd generation acrylics will both be a lot more user friendly for brushing.

There are many other ranges too but those are the only ones I've used myself.
