Mike Rector's tuscan red recipe

[NW Modeling List]

I'll look for some cars. That message is probably 25 years old!

For what it's worth, regarding airbrushes, I get great results with this
$40 Amazon airbrush. I also have a Paasche, but rarely use it because I
prefer the top-mounted paint reservoir.

NEOECO SJ83 Airbrush, Self-Centring Plug-in Nozzle，0.2, 0.3 & 0.5mm Nozzle
Sets and 1/3 oz Cup, Dual-Action Gravity Feed Airbrush with 1/3 oz,2/3
oz,4/3 oz Replacement Cups (RED) https://a.co/d/bEkGUXW
