Citadel is about the only acrylic paint I can get nearby. Any recommendations for brush painting it? What should I use to thin it and how much should I use? Can I use a gel retarder in it?
 
SS ,

I have th Citadel Dwarf Flesh . For brush painting I just thin it with a few drops of Water & add a couple of drops of Liquitex's Slow Dry Blending Gel & it works for Me ...

I'll put enough paint in a 20oz. bottle soda cap, enough to cover th bottom of the cap , add 2 drops of water & 2 drops of th Slow dry blending gel, it seems to go on just like Vallejo, thin great coverage & doen't show brush strokes !!
 
Citadels paints brush excellently, water to thin.
If airbrushing I found tamiya thinner works well, I tried IPA but it just glooped together and clogged up my AB, they don't spray as nicely as Tamiyas acryl but I love their metallics they walk all over tamiya metallics.
