Yes, that is great news, Sergey! I'm always open to trying new paints in search of the elusive "perfect paint".

Thanks,

Thank you so much for the kind offer Ondra, I may have to call on you, but let's hope all will go smooth. I'm sure it will.

Hello everybody,

on behalf of Sergey please let me post one photo of his latest finished build, the Phönix D.I (Special Hobby, 1/48) painted with Bulldog paints. More photos in better quality will follow as soon as possible. As Sergey told me the mottled camouflage was done with airbrush and some sort of special tool (as soon as Sergey shows me the method, I will share, of course).



P.S.: Many thanks for your support, George, Rick and Warren!

What is needed for thinking the paint or cleaning the brushes?

Ondra,
         Is there a non-branded thinner or cleaner you can recommend?  Lacquer thinner? Mineral spirits?

Warren, with Gunze Mr. Color paints, I just use good ole Lacquer thinner from Home Depot and it works great.

Yep, I agree with Bud! ( Although my Lacquer thinner comes from Wal-Mart)  8)

Thanks pards. I know there are two different lines of Gunze paints, and I can never keep straight which one is which, and which one uses what.

I use lacquer thinners for the Gunze/MrHobby 'aqueous' range too, instead of the required alcohol-based thinners. Seems to make it flow better and produces a more resilient finish.

Thanks Graham!  I really need to make a small notebook to keep next to the workbench with all of these pearls of knowledge so I don't have to keep pestering y'all.

Hello everybody,

please let me show you another model featuring Bulldog paints, this time it is a WNW Fokker D.VIIF bulit by Michal Švehla. The red paint is DB kraplak. I for one love the translucent lozenge effect on the fuselage.




Cheers

That D.VII looks great! The red is a very nice color and I also like the lozenge showing through a bit. Thanks, Ondra. :)
