Hello from the new guy. I just bought my first airbrush, a Badger 150m and I was wondering if anyone sells acrylic paints in sets. About 10-12 colors, that are made for airbrushes. I've had sets in the past of enamal, but I want get away from the them because of the fumes and cleanup. I live in a rual eara and it's hard to find things like this around here. I've been checking on-line stores and havn't quite found what I need. I've seen sone sets but they seem geared more to t-shirts and artist.
Thanks for any help. I must say I love the work you do, I will never be at your level of modeling, but I have fun doing what I do. Thanks again.

I've just tried Vallejo paints for the first time a couple weeks ago and I was very pleased with the results. The fine pigmentation of the paints is superb, but they area bit pricey. Never tried them with an airbrush, but others here have.

Another line of acrylic paints which can be bought in sets is Lifecolor Paints. They can be had through Military Hobbies
I've used a few of them and am quite pleased.
Never think that Lot21. Just give yourself time and practice and you too will be building models like the ones here. Most importantly, like you said, have fun!!!
