Just a ccouple of quick question really;
Do the GW paints work well through an airbrush?
How do they spray and do they give good coverage?
I'm asking as i already have GW paints but maybe there would be something better for airbrushing?

cheers!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/502268/5202110.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/502268/5202110.page GMT airbrush paint advice
They spray fine, if you thin them correctly. Coverage depends on how far you reduce them.

There are brands specifically formulated to be pre-thinned for your airbrush, Vallejo Model Air and Badger Miniature, but it isn't a case of 'better' as such. They are more convenient in some ways, but don't have exact matches to the GW colour line.]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/502268/5202125.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/502268/5202125.page GMT airbrush paint advice
Thanks for the help!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/502268/5202200.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/502268/5202200.page GMT airbrush paint advice
However, you can build a house by hand too....



Nothing, I say nothing beats airbrush paints.
If you are good at consistently mixing/thinning paints, use them.

However, once I started to use actual airbrush paints, I never went back unless i could not find the color I wanted.

I like;
Vallejo model air
Testors aztek airbrush
golden brand artist quality airbrush paints (amazing)
createx (might have to thin slightly in a .21mm or smaller needle).

best of luck!]]> http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/502268/5203412.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/502268/5203412.page GMT airbrush paint advice http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/502268/5203703.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/502268/5203703.page GMT airbrush paint advice http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/502268/5205584.page http://www.dakkadakka.com/dakkaforum/posts/preList/502268/5205584.page GMT airbrush paint advice

Createx paints exclusively cure under heat (around 160c) so are not suitable for painting miniatures with - unless you plan on melting your space marines after painting them.


Well, this is true if you use the automotive spray paints (I think they are under the "wicked" range).

However, createx ALSO makes a hobby line, its in smaller bottles, and you get it at craft and hobby stores.
It sprays and cures just fine, I use it ALL THE TIME. It can be a bit temperamental with my high end (i.e. very small needle .21 mm) brush, but overall decent stuff with amazing pigment density.

Still, my favorites are the vallejo model air, and the "golden" brand art airbursh paints.

best of luck to you sir!!!
