Texture for Mecha Model kit.

Do you want to add some different surface? Make your kit shout im not made of plastic? then do not hesitate to try and add some texturte to the surface of your next kit, you will love it and if not sand it off.

Which do i love using the most and this answer will not supprises you its the lacquer based stuff i love.

When it comes down to it I find the lacquer-based putty mixes dry faster which means you can form a texture faster with fewer passes but with an acrylic putty you can work longer and fewer fumes.

Stippled with Soft sponge

I use upholstery green foam torn ragged and used to stipple over the surface until I see texture staying but not pulling away.
