i have seen several references over the last couple of weeks on spraying pigment. Now my question is can you airbrush them dry or do they need mixing, I Don't want to bust my airbrush It's new And my first one
Sorry if it's a dumb question but its been bugging me a bit.

I use a paint brush to apply them as i often use it for weathering purposes. Spraying pigment powder produces too much uniformity to my liking hence why i apply them with a paint brush.

Interesting article.. But if they are artists pigments, I think I would be looking for them at an art store like Curry's.. 5 bucks an ounce is a bit pricy...
