To start a disclaimer: I'm not sure this goes here, but I can't think where it would go feel free to boot it wherever it belongs dear mods k:

So I plan to 'upgrade' my modelling loadout, including buying a long awaited airbrush

However I haven't been able to properly lock down a guide or review or whatever on which paints are best for what.
I think I've settled on Vallejo model air, as I've heard they can be sprayed straight out of the airbrush without thinning (some say yes thinning :scratchhead: ) and they can be used with brushes equally well
Are both these facts true?
Are there any better paint ranges?
Anything else I may have missed?

Thanks for any help :victory:

I'm at that stage when all my paints seem to be done or nearly done as is my wall mounted shopping list of paints is about 15 long
From what I've seen, the model air range seems pretty extensive, certainly got every colour I can see needing in the foreseeable future

About thinning, do you need the air brush for optimum results? Or does distilled water work just as well? Would tap water be acceptable? Even for short term?
Again I find mixed answers everywhere ranging from tap water is fine, to if you you anything by the right thinner the world implodes :cray:

Sounds good, distiller water is like an 8h the price so I'd risk it anyway
On a related note, is proper cleaner needed? Or does water work there as well
