You would do a lot better to just kabuki the base with Mehron Silver, it has great coverage and is way cheaper and goes a lot further. Mix it with a little water and alcohol or the mixing liquid. The image didn't come through. Otherwise, a 2oz. bottle should be good, would be about 1/2-3/4 use of paint if you airbrush it all, way easier to do a base and airbrush just a little over that, but not really necessary for solid silver and no hair getting painted. Call me if you have questions or need anything.

two ounces or so depending on product and coverage. EBA silver is pretty, but if you want shimmer, I would still add some clear glitter to it. I actually found many of the silvers end up looking for grey. If combined with wolfe grey, EBA Vibe Silver and silver powder, I got lots of highlight and shadow effects and it made the metal look more metal like.

Scroll down to bottom, this used a combination of those three and notice how the EBA metallic popped out and looks shine more so, because of the flad grey as contrast. Also, adding highlights for reflected light helps.
