Been testing some of the methods of using airbrush, and brush to see if I should base coat these with different mixes.

Getting the ratio to water/flow improver/paint is my current battle. Letting an over-flow improver mix dry right now so I can finish the coat on it.
>testing a gray primer was just for fun but if durability issues persist I will switch

Current main test is durability when the leg knuckles rub against stuff. Still 1 or 2 days from seeing if it'll stick according to advice online.
