An interesting thread SImon as I'm just about to try painting my ST Models MX2 Foamie, it's been an unopened kit boxed in my shed for 3 years and the supplied sticker set has all cracked to pieces. May I ask what airbrush and compressor you got from Amazon? I am in the same position of having a Humbrol airbrush and spray tins as you were and have been considering getting a better airbrush but the array is bewildering. If you have a set your happy with for this kind of project it would be useful to know.
