Hey guys, a couple of months ago I purchased the Andrea flesh and green sets. The coverage is very good but it comes out very chalky for some reason, especially when airbrushing. I thin them to milk consistency and added flow improver to them when both brushing and airbrushing. Does anyone have experience with these paints? Am I missing something here or are they generally this chalky?

Typically that means you are over thinning. Try switching to a matte medium when you thin, that will help replace some of the volume and should reduce the chalkiness. Golden and Liquitex both make a matte medium.
