Hi everyone!
Recently I got an airbrushing set so that I can learn how to add depth and gradients to my plushies.
I'm wondering what's the best paint to keep the soft texture of the fur? I know brushing it out it's a huge factor, but what brands has everyone been most successful with for synthetic furs:
I've heard of Creatix and Badger paints, but also hear they have to be mixed with something?
This paint business ended being more than I expected to get into..

I have used Golden Brand with very good success. It leaves the fur soft, and it has a sheen, so it does not dull the fur. I recently used regular acrylic paint, Folk Art Brand, I think it was, and mixed it with Liquitex airbrush medium, and that worked out well too.
