Acrylic spray paint?

[IronDog]

Right, heres something I was pondering over

Quite a few people are using acrylics over prosaide to paint up suits, masks etc- over a layer of prosaide so that it will adhere to the latex?

I was wondering whether it would work to brush a layer of prosaide over my skin and then use an acrylic rattle/spray can to lay a base coat. I was thinking maybe either citadel (Games Workshop) paint or Tamiya might be ok, since they are acrylic paints?

Thoughts on this? I mean I've seen a few body parts painted using citadel paints in an airbrush and I thought the citadel spray cans would be virtually the same thing.

If anyone can help here, I was wondering a simlar thing!

Just more or less confirmed that tamiya and other "model" sprays, like the kind you'd use on plastic model kits would be no good-
apparently the amount of plasticizer in the spray wouldn't allow it to adhere very well to latex.

But I'm pretty sure the Games workshop spray paints would be ok, seeing as people have used them in an airbrush to paint various suit parts without any trouble.
Only problem is the colours GW does spray cans in is very limited indeed.

I plan to hand-paint my mask using citadel pots and airbrush the same colours through a single-action for my skin.
