Sure.  This was my first time using an airbrush.  I have a Badger Velocity.

Base coat Vallejo Heavy Blue with the airbrush.
Ball up some Uhu Tac Adhesive putty and stick them to the miniature. (blue dots)
Heavy-ish coat of Vallejo Heavy Grey with the airbrush.
Ball up some Uhu Tac Adhesive putty and stick them to the miniature. (green dots)
Less Heavy coat of P3 Thrall Flesh with the airbrush attempting to avoid the undersides and innermost areas.
Remove the Uhu Tac.
That's it for the airbrush.

Conservative application of THIN Citadel Devlan Mud to the panel lines.  Mostly on the areas that are pure Thrall Flesh.

Three stages of THIN edge highlight:
1/2 Thrall Flesh 1/2 P3 Menoth White Highlight.
Menoth White Highlight.
Citadel Skull White.

The canopy is Citadel Blazing Orange, Devlan Mud wash, add Menoth White Highlight to highlight.

Dry transfer: http://www.archertransfers.com/AR72019W.html

The top of the base is painted P3 Bloodtracker Brown.  The edge is P3 Thamar Black.

Army Painter Anti-Shine Varnish.


Cheers!

I'm trying to figure out how to get this effect with a spray-can now ... and trying to think of blobs with fuzzy edges.

Thanks for sharing!

Very nice, simple, but good looking scheme!  That can be hard to pull off!

I've used silly putty in a similar method. That scheme is just ace man.
