I ran across this air brush system on You Tube and it caught my attention. It uses an "ink filled marker" to supply the color, its alcohol based and simple to use with no typical air brush clean up. I like the simple part and was wondering if an alcohol based ink would work on extruded foam. I've searched the forum but only got one hit and that was for a Copic pen. Has anybody ever tried this air brush on their scenery?

The air brush per se has no bearing on using alcohol based products. I love putting some Dr. Ben's liquid pigments (industrial pigments in alcohol) in the airbrush. Cleanup is for sure easier when using alcohol based stuff. Then just seal with Dullcote or something similar. My point is that no special ink based whatever has invented using alcohol based products in an airbrush. Dive in, it becomes much less mysterious when you "do".
Also, you can buy Dr. Ben's (or whomever's) pigments and mix into alcohol and put in the airbrush. And, until you seal it, you can remove with some alcohol.
Here's a short video showing the system I'm referring to.
