I will be painting large Tyranid Monstrous Creatures with an airbrush and I would like to use Citadel or P3 paints to match my small Tyranid gribbles. What is the recommended liquid and ratio for thinning to spray?
Thanks!!

Water with maybe 10% isypropyl alcohol, roughly 50/50 with paint. Precision isn't too much of an issue, I've found, I just eyeball it and rarely have issues.

Also if your living in an area with hard water issues, go for bottled / purified water instead of tap.

Agreed - the water here is not fit for painting projects

I guess living with water that comes straight from Lake Tahoe makes that not much of an issue out here.
