A quick connoisseur update..

Tamiya clear red has a powerful bouquet and in my opinion just a tad much sharpness. It gives an distinctive sting on your tongue and continue to burn all the way down to your stomach.

I suggest serving in roomtemperature and with Naan bread.

Bon appétit!

Have you been taking to the bottle again, Sven? lol

I haven\'t dared lick the brush while using TCR, because it smells really vicious. But, then, it\'s alcohol based, isn\'t it? :idea:

It\'s all this pressure.. sorry guys.

My name is Sven and I\'m a tamiyaholic.

My all time favourite is W&N Flow improver. You feel like you\'ve been to the dentist and he\'s injected anaesthetic in your mouth.

GW paints are nice GW metallic paints are not. I nearly died from GW Gloss Varnish, and Matt Varnish is even worse. It shrivelled my tongue up then began to burn. Even the smell of it hurt my nostrils after a while :|~

 

[drizzt]

Some VMC colours are really great. I like GW taste but not their smell

 

[Orchid Noir]

The RMS are nice and mild with a delicate bouquet, definitely a champagne and cheese choice.

If you mix too much futures with you water it can do some nasty things to you. Dont ever drink it straight from the bottle boys and girls.

Dont be such a novice......you need to let them age, then breath once you pour them.

 

[Onis Lair]

No no, tamiya smoke is the best. it has that slightly sharp metallic tang with a sweet and bitter aftertaste to amke you know you are still alive. i do suggest you try it in small doses so you can streach that perfection as long as possable.

GW Flesh Wash has a taste once sampled is not easily forgotten.

GW matt varnish smells like fermenting passionfruit. And no, that is not a good thing. My new GW black ink smells awful, but I haven\'t sampled it yet.

 

[Avelorn]

yeah.. flesh wash is good!

and seriously remember guys n\' gals. Don\'t lick your brushes when using anything other than hobbypaints. Artists acrylics for example often includes heavy metals. Cadmium red is named cadmium red for a reason.

Cadmium:
How can cadmium affect my health?
Breathing high levels of cadmium severely damages the lungs and can cause death. Eating food or drinking water with very high levels severely irritates the stomach, leading to vomiting and diarrhea. Long-term exposure to lower levels of cadmium in air, food, or water leads to a buildup of cadmium in the kidneys and possible kidney disease. Other long-term effects are lung damage and fragile bones.

Animals given cadmium in food or water had high blood pressure, iron-poor blood, liver disease, and nerve or brain damage.

We don\'t know if humans get any of these diseases from eating or drinking cadmium. Skin contact with cadmium is not known to cause health effects in humans or animals.

The master paintbrush set basecoat brus has a wonderfull smooth flavor when it has been used repetedly in the same brushwater (which has doses of blacks and browns) Also I ifnd the shining gold has a rich almost pear like flavor

If the \"master paintbrush set\" is what I think it is then GW says ka\'tching.

 

[penguin]

Indeed. £75 Buy kaple\'s brushes, they are much better value :]

 

[squig hunter]

Yes it is the Master paint brush set but to its defecne they are very good brushes and to my defence I got it for my birthday.

 

[SebastianRushworth]

No need to defend yourself mate. I wish someone would give that kind of stuff to me for my birthday!

(But the brushes in the master paint brush set are just regular if overpriced Windsor and Newton series 7, just so you know when you need to refill your brush supply)
