I had a similar problem recently with some Tomita decals done on MM paper. First I had to re-coat them as they were breaking up. After spraying them again, I soaked the next piece, but it was sticking around the edges, like I think you're encountering. I just used a small flat putty spatula(from Mic...

See this thread: http://www.starshipmodeler.net/cgi-bin/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=37020 Apple Barrel/Folk Art paints are thinner for airbrushing, Delta better for brushing on. I did spray one color on my Jem Hadar BC. It came out OK, but had some congealing in the supply bottle from the heat of the day...

Just another update. I mixxed a yellow with a green and thinned it down with Future(not too thin). It came out fine once it dried: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v72/ussarcadia/ABspraytest.jpg This is sprayed on top of the Tamiya purple I used for the Jemmie BC. Coverage was rather good. Next I'm...

For SW ships I found, somtimes, that appplying the wash over a matte finish gave a "dirtier" result. You might try it, though, on a dummy test model, etc.

Just got done testing both methods, results here: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v72/ussarcadia/painttest.jpg The Windex mix on the left was runny and spattered. The Future mix on right came out and applied like a dream. That is the way to go with these paints. In the end I went with Tamiya paint...

Airbrushing Apple Barrel
Anybody have luck airbrushing these paints from Micheal's? Do they thin enough to run through? I've mixed up the appropriate color in these for the Jemmie BC but can't seem to get an exact match in Tamiya.
