Spray can to airbrush bottle

Okay, I might be an absolute moron for doing this, but it's worked so far. Anyways, a LOT of colors I like are only available to me through spray cans (unless I want to order them and I am too cheap to pay shipping). Well, I don't really like using spray cans, so I started doing this. I'm just wondering if anyone else does it, or if there's an easier way I missed.

What I do, is basically spray my cans of paint into the little bottles for airbrushing. Using those little straw things you get with WD40 works really well too. I've had no problem with it so far, and as soon as I can, I'll have to post pics of the results. I don't know about storing paint, as I just transfer it right before spraying. So, am I the only freak who does this?

This is my first paint job done with touch up rattle can sprayed into the air brush bottle. That's what i mostly do now, mainly because of the chioce of colors and fast dry time of the laquers.

Well to be honest i cant see the point of it...seems alot of mucking around to transfer the paint around from can to bottle.
I'd just try a bit more practice with spay cans to save all the hassle IMO

What's the diff., you still have to pour and mix. Actually easier to spray and spray. No mixing to muck around with.
