Does anyone airbrush their washes on? If so, how do you find it works out? I was thinking that after my base coat and a bit of a zenithal coat, I could spray a gloss varnish to seal the base and help the wash flow into the deep areas and then just spray the wash on for quickness. Anyone have any experience? Many thanks

I have done it before, it's great to be honest - Devlan Mud goes on really well mate

i find it to be wasteful. its easy to get carried away when spraying washes and not everything will land on the model.

maybe, but I done mine in a big batch, so again it worked ok for me TBH.

When airbrushing washes add some matte medium to make the wash behave a little better .

I did a large FoW army by airbrushing an ArmyPainter wash over the camo basecoat. I deluted it quite a bit with matte medium, flow aid and distilled water. It worked out really well. It does waste some but being thinned it's not bad.
