awesome and how much will i need in my airbrush to do detail do u think???

[jamesbruton]

@PierceFitzgerald It depends how big the piece is, but I only used a tiny amount of each colour for that piece, and most of it was left in the airbrush afterwards.

can u show me how i can thin the paints so that they can run smoothly through my airbrush???

thanks,

pierce :D

@PierceFitzgerald I used Stretchi paints and thinned them with tap water - about 50/50 paint/water, then they work as demonstrated.

You can clean latex out of brushes by soaking them in white spirit or possibly turpentine. Need to give them a good clean afterwards with washing up liquid.
