anyone use Liquidtex(sp?) acrylic paint

Got a tip to share? Have a question about the hobby? Need input on parts or weapons? Have great idea for a custom figure or vehicle? Too lazy to do it, or just want to share the idea with others? All that and more goes in here.

I was Michaels today, looking at different isles for hobby/model paint, came upon 1 brand Liquidtex(sp?) whatever its called.
Is it any good?

I used to use it all the time. Some pors - it's think and works almost like oil paints. It's easy to build texture as brush marks and stuff like that show, so you have to be careful if you want a smooth look. Airbrush is needed for the smooth look, and you can thin it with water. And you need to seal it (dull coat), or it's easily scratched off and sometime it shinny depending on the color. I like it for painting clothing as it give that real look or worn look to some items. Not a bad paint for the cost.
