hey guys, the paint I used in my airbrush is the Tamiya clear yellow paint. I didn't use the can though, because I can't get that at my local hobby shop, so I just bought a small jar/bottle, and then thinned it in so I could use it with the airbrush. the Tamiya cans are great too because the spray head has a very smooth and consistent spray.

fc pro am: haha, nice man they look really good, are those 17's? I'm contemplating whether to go 16 or 17.

shika805: Make sure you pick up some tamiya thinner, you're better to just clean the paint right off instead of wet sanding it, the thinner won't hurt the plastic.

To everyone else, thanks for the positive comments!
