if you're painting latex masks then you need to mix latex in the paints . i do all my stuff with dry brush so i wouldn't know about the airbrush part . but if you are painting stuff like resin then you don't need to worry about mixing any paints . hope it all works out fine and post pics when you are finished . mike,

It is only nessesary to mix latex with acrylics for the basecoat. about 50/50 you do not need to use latex after you have finished the basecoat. you can use just inks or put 50/50 water and acrylic paint into the airbrush.
