Airbrush + Space Marine = Win

Well sports fan I thought I would show y'all a little WIP on a Space Marine model.

So I started with a base coat of Liquitex Payne's Gray and I Airbrushed that on over a gray primer coat. Once I had that color nice and solid I then airbrushed on GW Dark Angels Green from the Zenithal highlight position. I sprayed this color on in a few coats and then using the airbrush hit some areas that would be that color because the model sometimes unintentionally acts like a mask in certain spots. I then sprayed as a highlight GW Snot Green.

So far I've only used an airbrush on this model, and because this is a single model experiment I've learned on single models with an Airbrush is highly inefficient. However the effect is pretty stunning. Drying paint and cleaning the brush was the lion's share of the the hour and a half thus spent on this experiment.

Feel free to ask questions, and C&C is welcome.
