WHICH PAINT SYSTEM? | EPISODE #1 | LIFECOLOR | PRIMERS

Описание: A new occasional series where I take a deep dive into the various paint ranges dotted around the workshop.

Episode 1 | Lifecolor | Primers

This series will explore 'Why' I use a certain paint system, 'How' I came to use it and 'When' I use it. During the course of this series, I'll look at most of the major brands and the format will be largely the same.

I'll explain my history with any given paint range, what's in the range and how I use each, the strengths and weaknesses and the scenarios where I typically use the products. It's also a chance to look at any new products and test out the subject with a live demonstration.

This time, we are starting with Lifecolor and specifically their primers. I'll follow up with their base colors, before moving on to the other brands that I use.

For transparency, I any of the paints featured have been supplied over 10 years by http://www.airbrushes.com who are Astromodel's distributor for Lifecolor acrylics in the UK. Get these paints from them.

If you have any questions about using these paints, put them in the comments.

Enjoy!
