Schmincke Aqua Drop: Fluid watercolors for high-value airbrush illustrations

Every couple of years, the market is blessed with a new product from the paint manufacturer Schmincke, hailing from Erkrath, Germany. Some artists already received the new Aqua Drop paint as a test product in the summer of 2019. Thanks to the feedback it got, this allowed Schmincke to test whether the new paint series really makes sense. We were initially surprised to see that these paints were water- colors and not a typical acrylic airbrush paint. We were most especially curious about the options allowed when being sprayed through a fine nozzle and the possibility of scrap- ing, erasing, and then being solvate again.
