Really dislike the finish of italeri silver (from real is not so beaty as the pictures) ; a friend tell me about valleyo air metal paint that seems good for paintbrush , asap i'll try with these as substitute of glorious citadel chain mail (a part of almost finished jar mixed with the italeri silver) .
I've always preferred Enamel metallics for brushpainting as I've had realy bad issues with metallic acrylics. That being said I'm having a go with Citadels new metallics at the moment and am so far very impressed - if you can get past the names! The coverage is excellent and they don't appear to be leaving brush marks.

Citadel paints are very good anyway.

Regards

Very nice BsYamato!

I have the Vallejo Metal Color paints and I love them. They airbrush great and can be brush painted as well.

Used these acrilic paint because actually little kit are builded totally in the kitchen , so i can paint withouth fear , enamel paints are for larger kits or particular colors in the bunker workbench :)

I'll try to get these vallejo for next kitchen NMF work

More updates , few moves before end:

Wheels on (after a light washing and drybrush) , antennas , venturi tube and windshield. Also final coat of semi gloss finish .. but don't like so much the quality of this liquid :( glossy and matt finish works better
