Another quality paint from Tamiya. Easy to apply and looks great.
Most of my Tamiya acrylics have been great, but their lighter colours (whites and yellows) feel like a knock-off brand when using a brush. The paints are very thin and take a lot of coats to get an even colour, but their main problem is that they become sticky 5–10 seconds after you touch the brush to the model. It becomes a problem when you're trying to even out the (thin) coat you just applied because if you don't do it within 10 seconds, the paint will start to peel and gets all rough. Eventually you can get a mostly even coat if you thin the paint and apply at least 6 coats, compared to 2 or 3 coats of their normal paints. They might be alright for airbrushing, but they're difficult to work with when brush-painting.
Tamiya acrylic paints are made from water-soluble acrylic resins and are excellent for either brush painting or air-brushing. These paints can be used on styrol resins, Styrofoam, wood, plus all of the common model plastics. The paint covers well, flows smoothly and can be blended easily.
