Because AP, just like with everything else, uses the cheapest bottom of the barrel garbage. Try AK papers, it's good. Redgrass is also pretty awesome.

Damn, didn't expect my asses to made to banner.Drybrushed this guy fur, I think I should use darker shade as base coat, even with wash he looks quite bright compared to his intended rider. Still, would you go even brighter with his fur or leave him as this? Started with drybrushing what I used as base shade (Grey Blue), then mixed it a bit with Snow Blue, then pure Snow Blue and finished with White Grey.

Alright, it's probably stupid question but - in airbrushes with threaded nozzle, I would screw nozzle first and then slowly insert needle from the back until it stops at nozzle itself, ensuring that its in right position. But how should I insert the needle in case of airbrush with so called "floating" nozzle?

Got the last two desert stealth suits painted up, but don't worry because I've got three more to keep fooling around with! Those will be in a dry green color scheme.
I did get a wash medium for the black lining but frankly it didn't really make a difference. It was a bit more efficient than the water but otherwise I didn't feel much of a difference.
I used agrax and camoshade for the xv25.

But this shit came off like nothing the moment I introduced an oil wash. I curse myself for not applying a gloss varnish, but seriously I literally never got this issue even when not using it with other paint brands.

Need some technical support.So, I’d heard here that Badger Stynlrez primer was pretty decent, so I picked some up when I needed more primer. I found it worked great on the mini, but it would rapidly clog up my airbrush. I tried thinning it with some Vallejo airbrush thinner I had sitting around, and this is the result I get: an incredibly smooth, glossy primer coat that ends up not taking paint well - too smooth!Any advice on whether I should be thinning the primer with something else - water, rubbing alcohol, or? Or should I suck it up or try boosting the pressure on my air compressor and power through it?
