Hey peoples,
I am going to order my first order from Marauder Gun Runners soon and I need t know what kind of paints/brushes/primers I should use to paint and detail the guns. Any advice would be good.
Thanks,
AJ

Acrylics for sure. Enamels will screw up that soft plastic. Trust me! Try Vallajo model color. Not model air. Model air is thinned for a airbrush.
I order from Colorado miniatures.com

I've used Tamiya colours (not the spray) without any trouble.

It depends of the size of what you want to paint. I use needle heads or points for very small areas, like tactical lamp front size in silver, or the openings of a shotgun. Don't drink to much italian coffee before.
