Absolutely. AK 3rd Gen Acrylics are airbrush-ready with minimal thinning. For best results, a few drops of thinner can be added depending on your airbrush setup. They offer excellent atomization, control, and color retention even in fine-detail applications.

You can purchase AK Interactive 3rd Gen Acrylics as individual bottles or themed sets. Sets typically focus on specific subjects like WWII German uniforms, weathering effects, or fantasy tones, making it easy to build a palette tailored to your project.

AK 3rd Gen Acrylics are highly regarded for their quality and versatility. Compared to other brands, they offer better consistency for both brush and airbrush work, excellent pigment concentration, and smoother transitions for techniques like glazing and blending. They are competitive with Vallejo, Citadel, and Army Painter paints in both performance and color range.

Use a wet palette to extend working time and ensure smooth blending. Shake bottles well before use to mix pigments fully, and clean brushes thoroughly with water or acrylic cleaner. For airbrushing, AK’s own thinner is ideal to maintain flow and avoid clogs. Seal your work with varnish for extra durability.
