Cheap paint

Album image #1
These 4 bottles of skin tone paint work great. I paid $1.99 for the 4 bottle set. They are airbrushable - I thin them with Vallejo airbrush thinner. I got them at Micheal’s. 
 

Album image #2
I don’t remember what these cost - maybe about $5? They are not airbrushable, the pigments are too thick and clog the airbrush. Maybe useable with brushes, but do not recommend. I got them at hobby lobby. 
 

Album image #3
$3 for 8 metallic colors  
 

Album image #4
I’ve only been able to spray the metallics as translucent because of the texture of the paint.

Paint does not clog my airbrush but it does tend to scatter microscopic craft herpes (glitter) everywhere.
