Liquitex® has some really nice looking pearl and metallic colors in their line up, and I know they work well in an airbrush, my daughter and I do model horses, and many people into this hobby use these paints.

One of theprofessional ones is Brad Leisure's wife Cheryl, she's also one of the best painters in the hobby.
