Panel Line Accent Color Black

When I first started in the hobby, there weren't very many extras available for models. Tamiya has come up with the best extra I've come across in a long time. The richness of the black surpasses other brands of wash. Once I started using Panel Line Accent from Tamiya grills and wheels began to pop! SO much easier than the old paint and rub away method of yesteryear.

This is a very thin solution. It quickly goes alongside raised areas of models to add a 3-dimensional look. It is great for weathering model trains. I found that I could make the sawdust loads in Bowser HO Wood Chip cars stand out and look more realistic. On model planes, it highlights the control panels, makes the cockpit look used. On model trains, it makes the model look like it has actually been outside in weather without having to completely weather the model.

This is the first time I've tried the Panel Line Accent. It works great! The brush is attached inside the lid. It holds just enough color to touch in the area I want it, without causing a mess to clean up. The only negative I can see with it is the smell. It does have a strong odor; similar to a can of spray paint. This will stay on my work bench as a permanent go-to product.
