Looking good on the camo Tom! Is there any particular reason that you went with multiple brands for the RAF camo colors, rather than sticking with just one brand?

Tom, I noted that you sometimes clean up your acrylics with Windex. I don't know what sort of airbrush you use, but Windex removed the chrome from the paint cup on my Paasche H. Oh, it took a while but sure enough, it left the inside of that cup looking like brass, and sort of rough to the touch compared to the new cup I got for a replacement. All that might not even apply to your use but it's somethng to be aware of.
