The testors paints are more transparent and smoother for me. They give a more realistic anodized looking finish than the dupicolor, and the shades of each color are better. Valor had a different experience though.
Id like to see a shield painted with the Testors stuff.
Maybe its worth checking out. Im about empty on the DC red so I need to restock anyway.
Speaking of Valor...where are you with some more advice?
