How to paint 1/48 scale figures? I am looking for some tips.
It is harder then 1/72 and harder then 1/35.
So how do you paint 1/48 scale figures?

I like this link with the airbrush technique.



Also, if you follow Shep Paine, then instead of 1/35th use of 5 layer of shadow depths just use 3 in 1/48

The quality of the figure helps a lot too. ie resin vs plastic
