Lol, ain't that the main reason to airbrush paints? To bask in the aroma? LOL.

 

Actually are they that bad, I thought they were acrylics?

Yup, jumped on some Russian colors this morning. $60 in paint with shipping figured I will give these a try since everyone raves about them. We will see if they live up to the hype....

U won't be disappointed

Acrylic lacquers, sort of like Tamiya spray paints. They smell like lacquer paint. The smell is why I'm not using them. Right now, my main go to is Mission Models Paint, which is an odorless acrylic.

Well they do make acrylics (aqua) but the also make acrylic lacquers.

The bottles with a white cap are aqua acrylics (water based).

Aw crap I didn't catch that. I'm glad they are similar to tamiya spray which I really like but I ordered the acryl thinner and primer too. I guess that won't work. Oh well. :/ Edited by The Dude

Pure lacquer based paint (cellulose). Very strong smell and very bad for health, but.......the best paint there is, at the moment i'm trading all my Tamiya paints for the MRP range.

When you use them, just use a spray booth and a good mask.

Order placed!   FINALLY got a hold of some of the MRP white aluminum, some US Navy yellow orange for the F7F codes, some SEA Camo grey and Field Green for my OV-10A project, another bottle of glossy DSB to augment the two bottles I already have for the F7F, and finally some US Navy light Gull Grey, equivalent to "Boeing Grey" for my upcoming Air New Zealand "All Blacks" 777 ...............

 

And they had them ALL in stock!  Thanks for the heads up Mike.
