I'm sorting through upcoming 2011
projects.
All have enough seams on plated parts to
make me strongly consider kit plating removal and a spray paint re-finish of the parts.
The obvious question is: "Why not send the parts for re-plating after mold seam removal? "
Unfortunately, re-plating would appear impractical due to the need to remove parts from the tree for proper cleanup.
I've sifted through the FSM forum archives on the topic and noted posts mentioning
:
Citadel / Games Workshop metallic
paints ( comment that their gold looks similar to brass ) as well as Testors MM Brass paint .
However, the posts were several years old and I'm curious if anyone has noted any Brass finish / Copper finish paints that are an improvement over the brands I've mentioned?
Thanks for your help !
