Brush on paint recomendations

[terryg]

After many years, I am building my Semroc Saturn 1b. I have painted the assembled kit with a white base coat and I am going to use brush on black to paint the roll patterns, etc on the rocket. Tamiya acylic seems to be recomended by many, but it comes less then one ounce containers. Any brush on paints that you would recomend for this?

Tamiya. The standard jars are 23ml (I don't speak metric, so I don't know how many ounces that is), and are almost always thinned down (especially when air brushing).

It's very good paint.

I've had good luck with the little jars of Testor's for various brush painting projects on rockets, here's one example. But I've always spray painted roll patterns.

Lots of good advice here:

Brush-on paint and I have never "been friends" . . . To me, it is something of a "Black Art".
