Washes: How "watery" is to watery?

Chris,
I normally use a small container, like the lid of a 35 mm film cassette. I add a couple drops of paint, and probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 20-30 drops of thinner--maybe a little more. I never really measure; these are just approximations. You'll need to stir often to keep the pigment in suspension. Experiment some to find the right mix that works well for you.

Thanks Gip...I used a small wax cup(the kind you see people being given pills in) with some Testors Acryl and alchohol....Well I got a lil carried away with the alcohol...but I think it will turn out fine...I just added a second coat....

thats the point it should be thinner with a few drops of color. Paint with thinner is well..paint..lol, try not to take too much fluid on the brush or else it will maddly flow all over.

There's a good post about washes posted by Domi, but I can't find it at the moment. Maybe someone remembers it.
