Acrylic paints are the most commonly used paints in modeling and model making, especially when applied with an airbrush to create unique and impressive figures and scenery. They are water-based (not oil or enamel based) so they can be diluted with water as well as master medium or specific acrylic thinner for airbrushing. A great advantage of this type of paint is that its thinners are less harmful and less toxic than oil or enamel thinners.
Model paints are one of the most sought-after colors because of their many benefits and advantages and, above all, because of their wide variety of colors. The best presentation will be the dropper bottles with a steel ball inside which allows the quantity to be dispensed onto the palette or wet palette in the desired amount. The mixing ball inside the can, present in all the GSW ranges, facilitates the mixing of the pigments in those cases where there may be some sedimentation.

This type consists of weathering or natural pigments suspended in a polymer emulsion, which creates a realistic and unique effect, similar to that created by watercolors or oils on a canvas but on a miniature, model, or diorama. Its characteristics are inimitable and have exclusive advantages, such as:
Fast drying
Those who are involved in modeling know that there is nothing more boring than waiting and watching the figures dry. Once they are ready, we can't wait to use them! But with some types of modeling paint, this can take several days. Thanks to their basic properties, this is not a problem anymore, as they dry to the touch in a few minutes. However, keep in mind that it will take 20 to 24 hours to reach their full strength.
They are water resistant
Although it can be thinned with water to varying degrees, once dry it is completely water-resistant and will not cause damage. However, some people recommend diluting with other colors, pastes, or homemade solvents for special effects.
Easy to clean
Painting the figures can be exciting, but picking everything up is not so exciting.
They are very easy to clean and all traces of airbrush and brushes can be removed with soap. It is also possible to use alcohol, or your own cleaners such as Airbrush Cleaner or Paint Remover from Green Stuff World, which will be very effective.
They are less toxic
There are many types of Water based acrylic paints made from natural pigments that contain fewer chemicals than other types of oil or synthetic. Whatever type of product you use, take the necessary measures such as painting with good ventilation and using filter masks if necessary.
Can be applied perfectly with a hobby brush
Some people claim that acrylic paints should only be applied with an airbrush. However, this is not entirely true, because if you do not dilute them, or if you are using a slightly diluted version, you can paint with a paintbrush perfectly well, obtaining very fine and detailed results.
If you prefer airbrushing, they are also suitable, but only if the texture is similar to milk. You should dilute them, both metallic colors and non-metallic ones until they reach a milky texture. A trick is to always put the thinner into the airbrush before the paint. This will prevent clogging in the airbrush.
There is a wide variety
A wide variety of colors and finishes can be found, which offers an open world of possibilities for your figures and scenery. The most popular finish for models, dioramas, or even nativity scenes will be the matt finish. If you don't have this effect, you can rectify your finish with our varnish ultramate - Maxx Matt.
They are cheap
When compared to other types, we realize that acrylic paints stand out for their price, which is lower and makes them advantageous for the final quality.
In our online shop, you will find a wide range of excellent quality to use with a paintbrush or airbrush and give a unique style to your figures and miniatures.
Yes, they can be used for painting miniatures, besides they are a popular choice among miniature painters due to their versatility, ease of use, and availability in a wide range of colors. Because of their nature, they dry quickly and can be thinned with water or other specific mediums to achieve different effects.
When using them with miniatures, it's generally recommended to thin the paint slightly to achieve smoother and more controlled brushstrokes. Thinning them also helps prevent obscuring fine details on the miniature.
To enhance the durability, it's advisable to apply a primer or base coat to create a good surface for the paint to adhere to. After painting, it's also a good idea to seal the finished miniature with a clear varnish or sealer to protect the paint and prevent it from chipping or rubbing off.
Overall, acrylic paint offers a great balance between quality, ease of use, and versatility, making it a popular choice for painting miniatures.
The main difference lies in their chemical composition and drying properties.
Acrylic paint is composed mainly of pigments suspended in a water-based medium and acrylic polymers. This means that it cleans up easily with water and does not emit strong toxic odors. It is also less likely to cause allergic reactions or skin and respiratory tract irritations.
Its drying time is much faster than enamels. It dries quickly in the air, which means that you can work with successive coats and make corrections more easily. This is especially useful for techniques such as gradient and wash.
Acrylic paints tend to be more resistant to humidity and temperature changes. They are less prone to chipping or peeling once they have dried completely.
Enamel paint: Enamels are oil-based or organic solvents, such as turpentine or turpentine. These solvents can be flammable and release toxic fumes, so it is important to use them in well-ventilated areas and with caution. Enamels tend to have a stronger odor and can be more difficult to clean than acrylic paints. They are not recommended for less experienced users or beginners, and absolutely not recommended for children.
However, the drying time is much slower, allowing more working time before the final fixing of the colors completely. This can be beneficial for some aging and shading techniques, as it provides more time to mix and manipulate the colors.
Glazes are often more prone to chipping and may be less resistant to water and humidity. However, their chemical resistance can be useful for certain aging and weathering techniques.
In short, the choice depends on your personal preferences and the techniques you wish to use. Acrylic paints are safer, more versatile, and economical in general, while enamels may be suitable for specific effects and certain more limited applications.
