Global Scale Modeller

Seen a few people using this stuff recently. Watched Paul's review vid and it seemed to get a thumbs up. Always trust Paul's opinion, he's never steered me wrong yet.

Just wondered how it performs over the long term. People's opinion on the colours, does it mask ok, react with any gloss coat or weathering products etc. Your opinions would be greatly appreciated.

AND shelf life

I've been using it for a few months so can't comment on longevity. However, masking is no problem, going over it with matt or gloss varnish no problem, decal solution and weathering products, no problem. The colours I have used (mostly USAF greys and German WW2 tri camo) have been spot on.

As for shelf life, from what I've read as you mix the thinner and poly separately it has an indefinite shelf life.

This was done with MMP Really like it sprayed great nice smooth finish. With the smooth finish I went straight to decals left tide mark from micro sol and set first pic is the hood sanded mask and resprayed. second pic all finish. I would say seal it before decals

I am thinking of going to them once my Tamiya stock runs out.

certainly cheaper than other paints when your getting a 30ml bottle here in OZ. I do notice on the website nothing is mentioned about being able to brush paint them.

I use MMP for the base colour or for large areas and I've had no issues. I find it shrinks down onto detail brilliantly and is very hard to make sag even if you go mad. I've tried using it for thin lines for cammo etc but have struggled but I suspect that's my ineptitude at thinning.

I am definitely a fan. I find they spray straight out of the bottle without issue. I can't wait to try their thinner and poly. I just placed an order for that and a few more colors. I plan to eventually build up inventory of the basic colors.

EDIT:
I did some figuring. I can order 5 bottles (roughly $35USD) every week and have the full line in 6 months, LOL! And in reality, a lot of their paints are not needed like "faded olive drab" and stiff like that.
