						 Hello, decided to go with a bright pink basecoat for my dark eldars. Anyone know of a company that sells that in spray can form? I usually buy from the army painter but they didn't have it... I'm looking for a bright pink colour.

						 I'm not sure just how good they are for minis, but can you find Liquitex's acrylic spray range anywhere nearby? (I got handed a dinky wee sample can recently, must try it out quick.)
  Edit: just tested it on a wee stand of DRM scouts I had lying around, and... I dunno. It gives a 'coarse', almost spattering spray even after warming and a lot of shaking. Leaves you with a bunch of raised polka dots with a light pass. Seems very thick and possibly obscuring if you give it another couple of passes to get a more solid layer. It doesn't seem so bad after drying, though I didn't spray enough to get a fully solid layer. I just checked and saw that liquitex sprays are solvent-free, which is good in a couple of ways but perhaps explains why it's not so great for thin basecoats. Plasti-kote super might be better (I've used the black and black primer for good, thin, consistent layers on minis) though the colour range isn't as huge. They do have a matt pink, though.
  I might just leave you with advice that I took myself a while back, though: get yourself a wee airbrush...
