ICM isa hobby company based out of Ukraine and has provided IPMS-USA a six (6) bottle acrylic paint set for review, WWII German U-boats Acrylic Paint Set.
In the Box
The paint set contains six (6) 12ml bottles with nontoxic water based acrylic paints. The following colors are provided:
- Sky Grey (1033)
- Dark Sea Grey (1034)
- Dark Grey (1037)
- Brass (1018)
- Oily Steel (1026)
- Clear Red (1011)
Straight out of the bottle, the paint’s viscosity is thick and purposely prepared for brush painting. The instructions do recommend thinning 40-60% with water or thinner for airbrushing. All surfaces are recommended to have primer applied prior to painting. Volume wise, the paint takes up about 70% of the bottle and has “room” to add thinner if so desired.
Note, the bottles are not the usual dropper style (think Vallejo) but a twist off cap and a large opening to allow brushes to enter the bottle.
