Arch69 Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) So am planning on using some Abaddon Black Air on my BL as my friend gave me the paints for my airbrush. my question is if I use the Abaddon Black Air if I need to make touch ups later after a mistake will the regular Abaddon Black base paint be the same texture and not stand out. So basically should I just use my Abaddon Black Base paint instead though the airbrush?

Firedrake Cordova Posted May 23, 2020 Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) If you're worried, the obvious thing to do is get some plasticard or sprue, and to paint a bit with regular Abaddon Black, and the bit next to it with the Air version, and compare the two. Obviously, given that the airbrush will give you a nice even finish, any mistakes in thinning the non-Air paint will be made a bit more obvious I've not used the Air paints, but I'd be willing to bet they're a bit like the Vallejo Game/Model Air range, insofar as they [a] give the same finish as the non-Air version, and can be painted on with a brush.

Thanks for the reply. I’ll definitely have to do that. Stupid me should have thought of that before hand.
