Airbrush paints are actual formulated paints for an airbrush. I’ve been using them as glazes and washes for years, but don’t know how well they would work as primary colors. Guess I’ll just test and give it a shot.

Washout – what do you mean “airbrush paints?” I’m using either GW paints if I need a specific color, or I’m using “apple barrel acrylics” which sell for $1.50 or $2.00 for a big bottle at wal-mart. Nothing fancy.

So have you ever used airbrush paints? I want to do a guard army soon and I’ll use your method with the silly putty. But I don’t want to fork out huge money for the paints if I can get away with airbrush paints instead.

Danger – Octopus! : I would say, start with a 50/50 mix of water and paint. I like water with a little soap in it, as that helps break down the surface tension and everything flows better. Then spray and see what happens. If it’s too thick, you’ll get very limited flow and too small a pattern. If the paint is too thin, you’ll get a huge pattern and the paint will run, puddle, and pool.

Ideally, the paint will stick to the surface right away. It takes practice; I’d recommend priming some sprue pieces and paint them first. Practice on plastic; paper or canvas or newsprint all have different qualities, and what produces great results on paper will not work the same on your model.

Tell me about paint. Specifically, how much do you have to water it down to get the right consistency?

I’ve got about five or six vehicles and a fair amount of scenery to paint – an airbrush would quite possibly help.

Have you tried using Blu Tac instead of Silly Putty? In my experience, paint dries pretty easily on Blu Tac, and you can knead it up after and re-use it.

I ended up sanding off the paint to get the glue to work, since the plastic glue I use won’t work on painted surfaces.

How well does it glue when the pieces are painted? Or do you file or sand paper off some of the paint so the glue can work directly on the plastic?
