Default Enamel Paint Help

I need help with enamel paint. I am having nothing but trouble with acrylic paint. I need skin tone help as well as team color help. I am doing a 1980's Falcon team.

Default Enamel Paint

Now you're speaking my language!! Enamal paints are the best. Although I have to say that the Testors acrylics are good also. I will also give a shout out to Miggle on their paints as well. I didn't use the to paint a full team but they cover in ONE coat which is my #1 priority when selecting paints.

As for your request Anthony, here's what I would use if painting the 1980's Falcons. All colors are Testors small bottle enamels............

- GLoss Black
- Gray
- Red
- White
Skin tones:
- Flat Tan (white guys)
- Brown (black guys)
- Rubber (real black guys like LT)
- Light Brown (I use this for guys like Munoz, Seau, Palomalu etc.)

All these colors are standard colors. You can pick up these up at Michael's or a hobby store. Good luck with your project and post some photos when you're done.

Thats right. I have a Vinny, Johny, Franky and Matty. No Petey though. Uncle Sally (Salvatore) and a Uncle Nicky. Last but not least is my middle name GUIDO! Named after Grandfather.

I am a dago myself, we pronounce Anthony as "Antony", the "th" sound is left out.
