Anybody try these inks on models yet?
Did not even know they existed until Yesterday at Hobby Lobby.

That is Daler Rowney acrylic Inks.

I have, both as a wash (lighlty diluted) and filter (more diluted)with reasonable results. I'm sure as my general painting skill increases and I get a handle on these things the results will also improve.

Inks are really used in very fine line airbrushing because they are so easily sprayed. Have you tried that to see how well they work?
