it depends i use acrylic if im painting a very very large area(runway,tarmac, etc) so i wich case i can buy it for cheaper that enamal

if im doing weathering iltend to used pastels, and enamal because im better at airbrushing enamal than acrylic! so i geuss i would have to say i use both but i deffinatley use enamal more

I tend to use acrylics more than anything else. General coverage I tend to paint with cheap craft paints. I went to an art store and found other airbrushable acrylics that are just great. Much cheaper than Tamiya. Weathering and so on, I'll still use acrylics.
