Model mates

Hey guys welcome to The Hobby Hive a place for modelers and gamers to come together and share there passion. Today I have some products from Model Mates the well known brand for modelling products they started the company in 2009 but had been trading under the name Dirty Down in 1980. Why Dirty Down you may ask well because there products make things dirty, their products have been used on films such as World War Z, Alien, James Bond, Star Wars and many more.

Firstly i would to show you these weathering effects these can be used on all manor of materials from plastic to resin and even metal as well as epoxy and they work with your normal paints and are not just for small scale models they can be used on props and  replica items.

The way you use these items is the same as you use any other weathering liquid all you do is brush or spray on the area you want it to but make sure you have varnished the item first, then once dry just wipe the excess of and leave it in the areas you need. They are one f the best products i have used and would recommend to others, the liquids are not to heavy or to thin and have an amazing consistency to the colour.

The next items are their range of sprays i have 4 spray primers and 5 weathering sprays to allow you to cover your items quicker and decrease your painting time which comes in handy when painting whole armies and larger items. The spray primers once shaken spay an even coat over your models and dries quiet quickly as well.

The Weathering sprays have the same quality of spray and coats evenly over the surface of your models or selected items and once varnished over the product it looks superb. the varies weathering effects you can choose from and these are a must for any budding artist and hobbyist. 

These products can be purchased directly from www.modelmates.co.uk and the guys there are extremely helpful and can advise you with your need and will be more than happy to help you in your hour of need.
