Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread

This is one question that I've been meaning to ask but keep forgetting.

I'm looking for a specific place to purchase some paintbrushes, or looking for any brush recommendations. I definitely need a smaller one and a medium-sized one.

I also plan to use the same brushes for Gundams. Are there any not-too-expensive brushes I could try out? The last set I bought hasn't been much use, it was probably too cheap.

Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread

I use Loew-Cornell brushes, I buy them at Micheal's craft stores.
Prices start at $2.50 each, multi packs are a good deal as well.

Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread

I usually just go to the dollar store and get the kids brushes that are colored and have plastic bristles. Not a bad product for it's cheap price.

Apple Barrel brushes from Walmart....

They arent plastic bristles and they are more expensive/of better quality than the introductory level brushes (@ $6 if i recall) but not as expensive as the extremely high end brushes.

Ive had much success with these.

Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread

I tried searching, but could someone give me the "411" on dying plastics, specifically Transformers Animated plastics?

Re: DAK's Customizing Discussion Thread

Considering getting ROTF Voyager Megatron. If I get him, I want him to have a movie accurate color with the silver & stuff. But I need a step-by-step instruction sheet thing with pics or something about how to do that.

Thanks.

P.S. This is my first time.
