I have never airbrushed model airplanes but my older brother has airbrushed a LOT of model railroad cars, which are most likely the same type of plastic. I would do a test first on the inside of the wing (before it is assembled) to ensure that it is OK. I have used Testors spray paint quite often with success on model airplanes, including this 1/48 scale P-51. As long as the spray paint is for plastic models and it is properly thinned for your air brush it should work OK. Jon C.

That would depend on paint viscosity, air pressure, fluid tip size, and air and fluid control knob adjustments.

Never tried to paint straight up. Should work paint is in bottle with small hole in bottle top of air.

I read instructions on the can, nothing mention about using brush to paint I was used with air sprayer . This liquid very thin ( like.... water, solvent)

It will and does a good job. However, you have to "thin" the paint with water (almost double the amount recommended for an airless) and use a paint conditioner such as Floetrol. Additionally, you'll have to purchase the M-aircap Set #6 to spray latex.

I airbrushed a tan, flat (Testors) base-coat. Let it dry completely. Then I brushed a mixture of Raw-Umber, oil paint. Follow that with a very light mix of Burnt-Umber, following the grain pattern along the stock.Hang the stock on a piece of curved wire and set aside to dry for a few days, before assembly. I have a very nice picture of the finished product.

I used it over Createx water based airbrush colors. I think it should work on top of acrylic paint. Make sure that coat is completely dry though.

Rena, I have mixed paint with a thinner and did some airbrushing on paper and it worked out fine. I was amazed how light I could go with the paint just by pushing the trigger a little bit, more trigger= more paint..

I think they have a paint scheme on the box. I don't know about any specific kits, but your local modeler shop usually has starter kits. I would say flesh color, and I can't remember if the WWI american uniforms were chestnut brown but you can easily google their uniform colors.

Actualy mine was named as a cosmetic airbrush although I use it for model making. It is a FANTASTIC bargan. One of those airbrushes alone would cost over a hundred bucks by them self. I have been very happy with mine. But the answer is YES, it would work just fine with airbrush cosmetics. I see no reason why it wouldn't.

I have gold spray paint. Please allow me to test and I'll respond back with a reasonable answer before you go to any expense on your own.

I sanded down the old RustOleum paint and used IdeaPaint. IdeaPaint works as designed. I've had it for about 18 months now and it still works great.

This could be a tough one to air brush details after it is assembled. But airbrushing base colors on the hull and deck, and then airbrushing the individual guns, etc. could be possible. Use the right type of paint for the plastic models. I have used thinned testors enamels (oil based) with good luck. Harder to clean up then acrylics (water based), but I like the look better.

You must use airbrush make up. Try shopping at airbrushmakeup.com ...I love their stuff.

This one looks as pictured and is ready to go, but if you want a difference color, you can repaint it. Hobby paint will spray much finer and thinner, and will likely weigh less, but doubt it will change performance much.
