I use primer. I guess its more of a shadowing thing. usually i paint the hole figure a color then i dry brush on scrapes, scratches and paint small detail areas. i usually us Gun metal acrylic for this. but can't do that with white as its not a dark color. it just never looks as good as say a figure painted with black. Would anyone have any shading\shadowing advice?
as a side note i was having a huge problem with paint scratching off so i was constantly having to repaint figure every so often. Acrylic is so much easier to clean up and work with but enamel is more durable. so i did some research and testing and found i can work with both. so i do a primer a base of enamel then detail with acrylic then clear coat enamel. so far this a solved or at least made my paint jobs scratch resistant. just make sure you give acquitted dry time between the use of the different paint types. or the paint will make crackle marks.
