AHi im new to this site and new to airbrushing, i love the airbrush but wondered the best way to lighten the colour? And best product to use? For example making baby pinks and blues etc.
Thanks

For pastels perhaps mix with white? I haven't tried this but am buying white to try.
Let me know how you get on? I thought about buying white but saw a bad review so holding off buying it

maybe white will work but the whites i've gotten aka titanium dioxide are loopy -- they are thick and do not play well with others -- just saying -- i mean it may work like crazy but i hate to clog my brush so i wouldn't try it unless it was specifically for the air brush -- and i still won't use it myself because water works --
otherwise i put water in my cup on the airbrush -- add a drop of air brush color -- spray lightly and it's a pastel -- works for me


yes i'm sure i have -- just depends on the type of black --

because we never had a 'grey' color -- only had the black to use to make grey/gray

sure thing -- so who can tell petitecat what brands come out gray rather than green? i mean i've got chefmaster black air brush color and some kroma colors -- but they are 'vintage' old


white airbrush color, I do it all the time. Yes, make sure you shake it well. Quite frankly, it's the only thing I found useful about white airbrush color. If you don't have white, pearl sheen does the trick to, but of course it leaves a sheen. I use Americolor airbrush color.

while it's rare some people (and i know a couple) are allergic to titanium dioxide and it is not a pretty thing -- tough to diagnose too -- so that's another reason why i avoid it as best i can

AThankyou everyone big help.ill buy some white colour and be sure to shake well
