Always support the real stuff so that: a. they can continue to make more kits b. maybe eventually lower the prices a little so they dont need to offset profit losses from bootleg sales c. you'll feel better =)

Skyboy98 if your really wanting to paint and you are spending alot on kits.. save for a Airbrush and compressor this way you can at least customize your colours, and in the long run its saves you money cause your not spending it on Aerosols.

as for airbrush, i guess that will remain to be seen, since i'm still new, and i got no patient, lol, and the worst part, i live in a basement, so airbrush not gonna do me good in health, as of now i bring it out door to do my spray paint. Quote:
i guess me and you really on the same boat, i did try to use the brush back then, the result was so bad that i toss everything away, lol. |

true. but like i said, i dont even use them often^^ so its ok.
thats the most effective and cheapest way in my opinion :P spray ugly parts and just top coat the rest^^ and even the top coat on unpainted parts isnt all that necessary since bandais plastic looks great most of the times. |

I have the same problem when it comes to fumes. But when you spray with a air brush you have an option to use Acrylic paint and Acrylic paint is water based so no harmful fumes.. Tamiya Acrylics have a slight percentage of alcohol in their paint but opening a window will easily take what ever fumes out.

Oh and I guess a good way to practice painting is to use the paint on the plastic trees that you are left with after cutting the parts off.
