                        Sign - Ditto [#ditto] Don't think you overthinned them since I had the exact same experience with them as you have, even when quite thick.

                        I've used a couple of their acrylic colors. Got them in the Airfix Club Kit. Not bad.... definitely need thinning for airbrushing. Only complaint I had was they didn't seem to have real good adhesion.... covered well, but scratched off fairly easily with handling. I might have overthinned them to much.

                        i saw an ad in one of those british model mags for humbrol acrylics some time ago but was really surprised when squadron started carrying them. it's amazing that the texture and colors seem to be the same as the enamel colors i used to use years ago. i can't recommend humbrol over any other brand, unless of course, you need a little dose of nostalgia.
