In today's video I test Golden High Flow Acrylics. These high quality acrylics work in your airbrush, dip pen, brush and refillable marker. For this video I focus on airbrushing them. Plus I'll brush test them and use them in a marker.

Thank you so much for reviewing these paints. I've been using their airbrush mediium for thinning craft acrylics with good results. And I tried a bottle of their Fluid Acrylics for brushing and was most impressed with its smoothness and coverage. I think I'll be hitting Micheals soon to try more.

After using multiple brands, Golden are my go to paints now. I have most of both the Fluids range and High Flows. Fluids are easier to brush (thicker), but with the airbrush medium, they airbrush very smooth as well. High flows is mostly for ease of use... Open bottle, some drops in the airbrush and go. I am not found of their metallics though, I prefer Vallejo Metal Color as those use aluminum instead of mica. I use the Carbon Black as undercoat for all my metals and shifters. Be sure to check the fluorescent paints from Golden (High Flow), those are really good.

@scoobydruid 2 жыл бұрын

Do you spray the Carbon Black directly on the plastic (ie as the "primer") or should you use proper primer first?

Also, prime/base with brown for gold metallic paint.

Have you ever done a review on Golden Fluid paints? They're a bit thicker and need to be thinned, but in the toy model prototype studio I used to work in, those were our go-tos. I'm questioning now why we used those in a professional setting, when it seems lacquer based are the more common choice by hobbyists.

Barbatos I ordered a primer by Revell called Aqua color primer but the name is misleading since it contains the chemical 1 metoxy-2-propanol witch is what is used in lacquers.
