I imagine they have a flat range though, yeah? Right, I have come to feel rather alone in this. I started using them because I started off with vehicle models, so that was the paint I had on hand. Most of it is gloss; you have to get the ones with "matte" or "flat" in their name. My Billy has shiny jeans cuz I accidentally used a gloss blue. The biggest hassle is having to use thinner instead of water. I just got a new type cuz I think my old thinner was making my plastic minis a bit sticky (worked fine on metal). The main reason I stick with enamel is that I am poor and don't want to replace all my paints at once. If I were starting from scratch, I would do so with acrylics. They are much more widely used, and there are more resources for how to use them. They seem safer for plastic minis, too. |
