There is a new a special purpose product formulated to aid you while working with paper: VMS Paper Shaper

It allows you to easily saturate and soften a paper sheet and then mould it into required shape so as to create canvas, covers, tarps, rags, etc.

Paper Shaper is an alternative to white glue and similar classic adhesives – it properly penetrates and softens the paper, making it remember the shapes.

Unlike any other paper medium product, it is reversible - allowing the modeller to create detachable paper accessories.

Now it will be easier to achieve high definition results as you can paint the created paper accessories separately from rest of the items such as crates and jerrycans.

Paper treated with the product is much easier shaped, which allows the modeller to create smooth and elegant creations similar to resin casts but with sharper detail. Any residue that is left on the model is easily removed with VMS polystyrene safe remover.

They also offer dedicated modelling WFU paper which ensures best results, but it works with any kind of paper – tissues, copier paper, fine arts papers an also other materials such as gauze (to make masking nets), fabrics etc.

VMS presents also SLOW-MO drying retarders, universal retarders in liquid form easily mixed with paints.

Slow-Mo extends drying time by 100% and can be used while painting and also added to airbrush thinner as an extender to mitigate tip drying.

Retarders come in two variants,for acrylic and enamel (solvent-based) paints.
Compatible with leading paint brands.
