Title: Customizing questions
Post by: Red_Leader on November 9, 2005, 03:05 PM
I have quite a few Action Fleet ships I would like to start customizing. I made sure to get doubles of the ones I want to customize. What is a good tool for giving a ship a certain color, like if I wanted to paint an A-Wing Blue or something, what would I use, paint, if so what kind of paint, marker, etc. I know it doesnt sound smart but thats why I'm stopping here first. Thanks in advance.  :)

Well, I would suggest using cheap acrylic paint from Walmart.  And practice on a junk ship first, you don't want to take the chance of ruining something that means a lot to you. 

Also, you can get a clear acrylic matte spray to use on it after it's been painted, to help it from chipping.

for Big things a cheap air brush can do wonders.(o.k. to get this straight air brush is not the same as dry brush. dry brushing is where you wipe most of the paint off a brush for battle damage air brushing is a Air Brush.It paints much faster.)
