Amps East

I visited Amps East last Saturday. Its the only local Amps show for me here in Northern NJ. Great show, I missed last years East show and the Nationals and was looking foward to this one. I met up with a few modelers from the Model Armour forum I visit, that was a pleasure as modeling is a solitary hobby and it was great to meet other modelers and see their work. I use Tamiya,Polly Scale and Model Master paints, oil washes and pigments I make from soft pastel sticks on all my models. Having never looked into the "newer" paints, washes, pigments I visited the AK Interactive booth and looked into their products. With the help of a fellow modeler who was demoing the products I got an insight into how they are used. I ended up picking up 2 sets or washes, filters, pigments and am looking foward to trying them out soon I can see the advantage in using them over my old method. Practice will be required no doubt.
