Self made textured model paints?

[Joe Handley]

Has anybody tried this too?  Kinda along the lines of what Model Masters has done, but using colors that MM doesn't offer or have stopped making?

Tried what?

Tried what?

Making paints that will have a texture to them when dry, like the ModelMaster line, but in more colors.

Could you just use an existing, neutral colored textured paint, then put your preferred color over it?

Making paints that will have a texture to them when dry, like the ModelMaster line, but in more colors.

What kind of texture? As in floor mats, or non-skid stairs, or vinyl roofs (or is it rooves), carpeting? Be more specific, please.

For starters, I'd suggest using the Model Masters white as a base, then overcoating with your color (or is it colour) of choice using acrylic.

Sorry, I typed the responses and op in a hurry, I was mainly interested in cloth seat and maybe carpet or headliner like textures, I used Model Master's fabric black spray on one model, but that has since been disco'd and it seems like grey is all that is still available at the moment.

Check out the Krylon paint website. I see they offer a textured spray paint style in several colors (black is one of them). The paint is in the SuperMaxx paint/primer line.

I too thought fabric texture paint was a great thing for modelers. However you and I seem to be in the minority of opinion on that.
