Wouldn't the thinner remove the previous coats of paint?

That's very true. You would have to use Humbrol acrylic 247, or seal the 247 colour with an acrylic varnish to make sure the thinner doesn't cause any damage (which I don't think I did, oops...)

actually the paint would "die" if you left it dry for about 4-6 hours (with enamel, and 1 hour for acrylic), once it dies, thinner can do no damage to it whatsoever

It takes some time and practice but with enough time and patience you can make it look airbrush. I had to move a lot for college and didn't drag all my equipment along so I relied on hand brushing for quite a bit and you can come up with some amazing results. Keep at it, you'll get there.

just started this model except i've painted the nose, cowling and rudder yellow. Your mottling technique was also helpful when I did a Bf 109 G-6. Great model!

Your models already look great imagine what they would look like if you had an airbrush. great job keep it up

a stunner Owen, love the way you have achieved LF mottling without the airbrush. keep up the good work.

I will be getting this model kit. I don't have an air brush, but your video shows very good results can be gotten with a paint brush if used properly. Thanks for posting.

Beautiful job! Your all brush paint job made for a very realistic finish with a weathering that was perfectly restrained.

great job, again! I may give you a tip to prolong life of your palette, I mean the think you have mixed you colurs in it, like the yellow. If you use aluminium foliage to cover it before use. You get the relief of it and after removing the foliage it will stay clean and ready for next painting. I hope you understand me.I am not very good in english.

this is probably better than my air brushing lol+

Try academy kits, it should have a cockpit details not like decals but painted

Hey Owen. First of all a very nice job. But I have a question. I started using enamel paints and the first time I used it, it ectualy didn't come out very well. I've already seen your paint tutorial but the thing is that I don't actually know what to paint acrylic and what to do enamel.
