I would probably say easier. You dont need to varnish. Its not toxic (relatively to enamels). Quicker drying time. Also i guess more paint colour selection. As with all things a combination is good but im glad i got them.

The lack of varnish is certainly a bonus. Might be something I should look into. Am I right in saying you can thin with iso?

Not sure. I got winsor and newton sansodor which is an oil paint retarder I think. I didnt research into what other stuff could be used really and just went for the recommended stuff, well the stuff the guy used in that 30k dark angel vid. I got my bits from jacksons art supplies. Worked out around the cheapest.

Worth noting. You'll get better capillary action from varnishing but i managed to do what i intended fine without it there.

Certainly an impressive piece though, will make a nice photo backdrop if nothing else.

As easy as working with enamels James?
Hi Pawl, I use a guy on facebook called Nemian Forge, He is a really good guy, i actually sort of convinced him to start his own business. i often send him the files i collect, so he has a large library at the moment, and ever growing.
