GW says the washes work well with the spray gun.

I gave it a shot, and it was an utter failure. I tried the washes on a Baal predator with my airbrush, and it really didn't work. In fact, it almost seemed to result in the "opposite" result you'd want. It looked like the wash settled on the flat surfaces and not the crevices. I painted some on with a brush, though, and it worked just fine.

Unless I missed some trick with the stuff in an airbrush, I ain't trying that one again...

Vale,

Seeing how washes are supposed to set into the crevices air brushing them sort of defeats the purpose.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229266/549470.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/229266/549470.page GMT Using washes with the new spray gun...
