Gunpla for beginners 9 years, 1 month ago I have a question. Is it possible to do preshading with spray paint? If yes, how to do it? I have access to Tamiya TS paints if this info helpful in making your suggestions. Thanks!

Spray cans don’t give you a lot of control. Personally I find it challenging enough even to try to paint a part with spray cans without putting too much paint on and getting orange peel or drips. That said, I’m sure it’s possible, just as it’s possible to sculpt with a chainsaw.
lol, never heard of sculpting with chainsaws before until now. They do make some interesting sculpts.
But can we use diluted paint with a brush as preshading? Or else use markers and then smudge it around? Anyone tried that yet??
It will be interesting if it works..
vegeta8259 did a tutorial for how to achieve post-shading effect using real touch markers:
Personally I prefer brushing an enamel powder (tamiya weathering master, etc) on painted surfaces/bare plastic.. The effect is cooler and you have more control on how the post-shading effect will turn out.
Thanks for the video and tips!
Nice info, thanks!!
