Out with the old, in with the new

Paints that is. For years I have used Airfix model paints in the little tins that get everywhere or if you don't use them, split or worse still harden. So now I have decided to upgrade and try my hand at airbrushing using Vallejo acrylic paints.

Amazon UK is a great place to get these paints at a good price. Here in Birkenhead we only have one model shop and their range is limited to what I want so to be able to buy eight 17ml paints for £15 is a bargain. So far I have got the Black & White set and I took delivery of the Game Colour set as well as a silver and a white primer too.

I have used a grey primer in the past and have even used a grey spray primer from the local B and M that I picked up for £2 but now to start using more appropriate paints.
