MonteSS Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 Anyone tries mixing pearl powders in clear and airbrushing?

aulrich Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 I have, but not that brand I used http://www.jacquardproducts.com/pearl-ex-pigments.html, and for the most part it worked from good to great. I did pick up a bigger jar out of the bargain bin where the grain size was too big to shoot properly, but that was the only hiccup. My favorite to use were the inference and duo powders both would react to the under coat color, the inference are white and some other color the duo with show two colors. So basically if you painted over a white background the primary color would show and at certain angles the secondary color will flash. Or if you took a white bait and shaded the back black, the primary color would transition to the secondary. I found that a small jar of pigment would tint a 2oz mix of 50/50 airbrush base/pledge about right 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gliders Posted March 21, 2017 Report Share Posted March 21, 2017 I use jacquard and perfect pearls through airbrush also. As travis said, as long as powder is fine enough you should be o.k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonteSS Posted March 22, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2017 Thanks. I wonder if I can use the Hilite powder I have for plastic worms. I will try it. Do you just mix it in clear createx? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
