Wow sir, that looks good!

Hey Floki, I watched your video on the painting the kit and had a question. I saw that you use the same paints and thinner (AK Real and Mr Leveling Thinner) and wanted to know what PSI you use. I would love to be able to freehand camo like that.

Sorry for the late responses guys, I've been busy helping my mom getting my grandma's house ready to sell.

Again sorry for the late response Mike. I thin the paint at either 1:1 or 4paint:6thinner for a more transparent blend coat and everything gets sprayed at 14psi. I have found that's the optimal psi for me and my setup. I use a Iwata Eclipse and a California airtools quiet compressor
