Any recommendations on paint for cockpit detail painting, such as knobs and switchs? I use Tamiya and Gunze paints, yet these paints don't work as well when applied by brush.
I want to build the Italeri 1/12 scale F-16 cockpit and figure there's gotta be a better paint that's easier to apply by brush for fine details.
Thanks, Jeff The eagle has landed
Or, you could paint with a toothpick. Also, Prismacolor makes a silver-colored pencil which is good for detail work.

Even with extender, acrylics don't seem to brush as well as oil based paints. Testor's work very well. Plus oils are easier to dry brush with. You could also try the gel pens.
They're available in most any arts & crafts store - I've picked them up at both Michael's and Hobby Lobby.

You should be able to find them in almost every stationary dept. in any store.
