So I'm sittin' there masking my canopy (forgot that joy in life) and my wife sits down, looks at the plane, looks up at me and says, "Looks like a pickle." and walks away. I can't stop laughing.

BrianKilby, I think I remember that the medium green took about four light coats to finally get full coverage over the light base. The smaller airbrushes are'nt the best choise for doing large areas. This was a little model so it really didn't matter.

i got a tamiya .3mm brush, what size tip would i need for big models? preferably in tamiya or badger. tamiya got a 0.5mm wide brush, would that do it?

The .5 mm should do O.K. Remember that your flow is greater, so the possibility/probability of developing runs as well as more overspray increases greatly. The basic round spray pattern of your typical airbrush really compounds the problem over large areas. BUT, if you have some cash to burn, this Bad Boy would be the ticket. http://www.iwata-medea.com/index.php/products/k_th/ I haven't bought one yet because lo and behold as I am getting older I am realizing the difference between "Want" and "Need". Plus, like DD, I do enjoy using a paint brush more. Phil
