Custom WorkstationHello, I want to start off with this palce is amazing.
I am new to painting figures.
I am getting an airbrush kit and I can paint, but I do need to know how to pick the proper colors for action figures. For instance I am going to repaint the large 31" superman figure, so what is a good paint for the rubberish figure?
1. Is Acrylic paint what I need for it?
2. How do you guys know the color codes? I want to make him the 1980's superman movie colors. (not sure version # movie but 1980's for sure)
3. Tamiya or testors, or somethign else?
3. What primers or can I use Krylon ina can primer?
Thanks for any and all help/ ideas.

Please wait...
