That is what I thought... the alcohol and water evaporate, leaving only the pigment.
might have to 1 day actually search for info... can't be bothered today tho lol

Italeri Acrylic paint in small plastic bottles 20ml, It brush's on great with paint brush & wash the brush with water, Good range of colours most are flat some gloss but dry semi gloss, Airbrush thin with good old Metho and clean up. You can lighten the colours with there white great for doing seats and inside of cars trucks, There was a local model shop here at East Maitland that got them in by sadly its closed going to ask Casey's to see if they can get them in, You can get them in sets too Frontline Hobbies :roll: . Also looks like Vallejo made them up for Italeri.
Vallejo are good for dry brushing on small figurines if you know how to do dry brushing still working on that.
