While cleaning I found my books called recipes for acrylics and oils. Has anyone used these boos with av paint ?

Yes those are the ones what paints do you use with these.? Brands and colors would be great info if you don't mind.

Have you tried the pre-mixed Vallejo washes?

All the best,
Dan

Any advantage to using premixed washes over mixing yourself ?................Wayne

Thanks nap just the info I was looking for

No Dan have not tried these yet . But plan to heard these are great

Just beginning to have a concept or two about painting, so I don't know how to think about the Vallejo washes. I got a couple of them to try out, but can't report results yet.

All the best,
Dan

I don't use books for my mixes. Just for try-mistake and my rudimentary knowledge of colour theory.
About the washes that show Dan, well, are washes. Pigment with more thinner. So it's unnecesary prepair a wash cause it comes bottled. People who make models use the a lot to modify the tone of the vehicle, blur the cammo. Can be mixed with acrilic colours, pigments, sand, to obtain differents textures and effects
