I think my old Humbrol airbrush will go on eBay and Santa will receive a very polite letter for something double action... and I don't mean a shot-gun or Cillit Bang  .

You should really think about getting an airbrush Bill,They really make the difference when it comes to painting all the parts.I think you 'll get on fine using one.The modern airbrushes are simple to use.It takes longer sometimes to prepare the surfaces for painting than it does to lay on the finishing coats of paint.I think an airbrush takes your models to the next level and a good one will last you years.If you want a cheaper one to start with I can recommend the Tamiya Spraywork HG Single Action.I have been using this for a good few months now and it is my workhorse brush for all the little parts etc.I'm looking to add another soon for painting bodyshells etc,something capable of laying down wetter coats.I've had a few recommendations but there is such a choice!!!!!
