BLACK AND WHITE

I started with the darkest shade and the coverage was surprisingly even on the first coat, which saved me a lot of time. The matte finish dries perfectly flat with no brush strokes.

Finally, a black-and-white paint set that actually covers well in one coat. I used it for pre-shading a 1/48 scale aircraft and the chiaroscuro effect came out exactly as I wanted. The matte finish really helps the shadows read properly under a light coat of the top color.

The matte finish is a nice touch, it goes on smoothly without that annoying shine you get on some other paints. Only wish the set had a couple more shades of gray for finer gradients, but it works fine for the basic pre-shading I needed.
