Have any of you used acrylic ink for finishing (not ink-lines, but actual color

I have a plane that is painted in white dope as a base color and I have a couple of bottles of FW acrylic ink.  The colors in this ink are pigmented colors (not  dye) and are beautiful.  I'm thinking of using it with my air-brush to add my trim colors.  Have any of you actually tried to do this?  Your experience?

Thanks,
Scott

Yes  but not out of an airbrush, I don't  see why it would not  work though

I have used ink to color polyspan on my Free Flight planes.
It's pretty vibrant and does not seem to affected by sunlight.

Can you tint clear dope with the ink, or maybe with something like Higgins fade-proof ink, and spray that mix as trim color?

Sort of. I've done that over color tissue trying to keep it from fading so much. 
It will separate in storage. It isn't gonna be opaque, more like a shading lacquer.
