gaianotes products
GAIA-COLOR SERIES
The Gaia Color Series is the core product line of Gaianotes.
These are solvent-based acrylic resin paints, commonly referred to as lacquer-type paints. Unlike water-based paints, they dry quickly and form a strong coating.
While they do have a noticeable odor, they are considered the most suitable type of paint for modeling. They work perfectly with airbrushes and produce a smooth, professional finish.
The metallic colors in particular are highly regarded, as their fine pigment particles provide a realistic metallic sheen.
