Hi Randy, There have been numerous articles on this topic over the years in the hobby press, and you can access references to them by clicking on the "Mag Index" link near the top of this page. You can order back issues or photocopies of MR articles by contacting our Customer Sales & Service Dept. Polly Scale is good and so is Modelflex. After a while, people tend to stick with a brand they've had success with. Some MR staffers still prefer Floquil because the results are predictable for them; others like Polly Scale for the same reason. As for colors, earth tones and grays (light and dark) are best. Start with a light application (whether it's paint or chalks) and build up layers. Paul Schmidt
