Thanks Josh96. This was my first attempt with airbrush. Used acryllic waterbases paint wich perfomred beautifully. Only to find out when placing the decals that the paint does not like decalsolution. So future projects will all be done with laquerpaints (more durable).

I wouldn't have thought it was your first attempt at airbrushing! I see that you use Micro-sol/set for the decals - it should not be an issue with acrylics under a layer of acrylic gloss coating- at least not from my experience. I prefer lacquer, it goes on smoothly, has the durability you mentioned, and can be thinned down better than acrylics IMHO - but the odor is terrible - a good reminder to vent your workspace after airbrushing!

I use Testors enamels for their low cost and decent finish, but for the ease of cleanup I prefer Vallejo model air paint (the enamels are a huge pain to clean out of my airbrush. I haven't had any Micro SOL react with the Vallejo stuff despite not having a gloss coat. The low odor of the acrylics is a plus!
