Thanks again,

All coming along nicely - also really great to have a simple, small scout on the bench.

Main components all primed up - Using Tamiya fine grey out of a rattle can - beautiful stuff to spray.






PC10 and linen up next - I've got in specially these paints:





They look nice in the bottles - I was thinking I could add some variation to the PC10 by using a little linen - haven't quite decided which kind of look yet.. will probably look through others models for some inspiration. Can anyone post or link me to a particularly nice PC10 finish?

Thanks

Well I can report that the paints are Beautiful! Nicest I've ever used.. it's like spraying liquid silk. I seriously want to get a complete set of these. Good coverage, dry quickly (but not in the airbrush) and all straight out of the bottle, they have a lovely consistency   :D Ace

Here's the first light shade (PC10 with about 33% linen) for the highlighted ribs:





Then a patchy overspray of neat PC10








There's a hint of chocolate in there somewhere too. The finish is so silky smooth you could decal up directly I reckon.

As they're effectively Mr Color based - their brand cleaner worked a treat.

Nice paintwork, Guy.
Can you advise on pressure settings for the airbrush?

Cheers,
BVB

I think it's generally around 17psi Bob,

To be honest though.. I have an adjustable knob at the base of the airbrush and just set that by experimentation.

The paints are so fine that they'd spray at very low settings I think.
