They are designed to offer good coverage, a matte finish and controlled application, both by brush and airbrush when properly thinned. What to use AK 3GEN Acrylics for Miniatures and figures: colours for base coats, highlights, shadows, details, fabrics, skin, armour and accessories. Scale models and vehicles: military and metallic shades, camouflage, interiors, panels and mechanical parts. Dioramas and bases: colours for terrain, scenic elements, tools, crates, structures and decorative elements. Brush and airbrush application For brush painting, work in thin coats and let each layer dry before the next. For airbrushing, thin the paint to a smooth consistency and apply several light coats. In both cases, it's worth using a suitable primer and protecting the finish with varnish if the piece will be handled.
