which is geared towards their model color line. Game color is thinner and requires different mixing. That being said, however the aforementioned article is really really good.

Posts: 17 Some Game Color paints requre ZERO thinning to use, others require a small amount. I started using Future Floor Finish to thin mine instead of pure water, because it breaks surface tension and blends colors without making the paint as runny. Some of the colors, ie - orange, for example, are so thin that I actually let them dry slightly on my palette before I can use them.
