Hi,

I don't have an airbrush set, having done most of my previous work with hand brushes. I really want to get into the airbrush thing, but my budget just won't allow for it right now.

Point here is, I've been wanting to get the perfect modern US desert-camo color for a while now. A lot of people have said Model Masters Sand is the way to go, but I feel like the best way to do a modern AFV with a light, monotone paint scheme is to spray it on. MM also produces a Modern US Desert enamel spray can. Has anyone used this? Is it a good match for US armor, specifically OIF/after?
