Are you wanting airbrush colors or spray can?

Either, prefer airbrush-water based, but will do whatever. I have a charcoal metallic Faskolor I thought a bout using and backing with silver or white to lighten it up. Here's a Wraith body I painted with it. It's darker than what I need.

I would try a 50/50 mix of the charcoal and silver. Maybe even a 40/60 with a bit more silver.

I made this color a few years back with about a 60/40 mix.
