discussion Airbrushing Citadel Colour Acrylic paints

[Guest]

Does anyone have experience using Games Workshops Citadel Colour Paints in an Airbrush?

In the past these paints seem quite dry and powdery - wondered if anyone could suggest a particular thinner for them.

I wanted to use Citadel Acrylic as I need a colour match with their Blood Red paints for my Blood Angels models.

Whatever happened to this Alan? Did you airbrush them?

In the end I used Vallejo paints. As far as colour match for citadel / GW colour - Vallejo sell a "Game Color" range of paints which are matched to their very similarly (somewhat coincidentally) named counterpart on the Citadel paint chart...

I.e.
