Time for another scale modelling & weathering "How To" guide by http://www.scalewarmachines.com.

This time, we are explaining Tamiya's Clear Paints (and their Smoke Paint).

These are watersoluable semi-transparent shades designed to help you get a realistic finish on your models. Tamiya is a name synonymous with quality and we love their paints.

You can use them neat or diluted and apply by brush or (ideally) by airbrush. We use both Tamiya Lacquer Thinner and their X20A Acrylic Thinner.

In this film you will see the paints used on the following models;

Tamiya 1/35th scale GMC 2.5t Truck
Tamiya 1/35th scale Char B1 Bis
Revell 1/35th scale Artilleriewagen Draisine
Academy's 1/35th scale M113 ACAV
Tiger Model 1/35th scale VBL
Revell's 1/24th scale VW Golf GTi
