Hi!
I was wondering if anybody familiar with the Vallejo model air range for airbrushes knows a good alternative to Mephiston Red. I'm going to be painting some crimson slaughter csm and I was looking for a more airbrush friendly paint.

I'm guessing Fire Red is closest, but it probably won't be an exact match.

Thinning Citadel or Game Color isn't too hard if you use a proper thinner.

My main problem is that I find it impossible to actually get them out the pot and into my airbrush but I shall take a look at Fire Red, many thanks

You can use eye droppers, you can buy a heap of them quite cheaply, personally I just have an old brush which is reasonably large that I use for getting paint from pots to my airbrush and also to stir the paint in the airbrush cup and help clean the airbrush.
