 Subject:  Acrylic or enamel base?????List thread.  
  
 Date:  Aug 12, 2003
 From:  Sean Davis 
I have been modeling for many years and have taken a too long of a break. Just recently I decided to get back into the hobby and have started to build a collection of Tigers. My ? is... has the type of acrylics changed recently?! My acrylic washes look like crap over enamel bases. And acrylic bases look too...well... FAKE.
What is the current procedure for otaining realistic finishes. I HAVE read numerous articles and I would like to find the most common one.
If anyone can help... I would greatly appreciate it.
