Thanks for the info. Will check your out your review. Darryl

Hi folks. I am a returning modeler (been away from it for about 15 years give or take). Bought a new airbrush (Paasche VL series) and compressor (Passche 500) along with numerous artist brushes, etc. The questions I have are as follows: 1. What are the better paints to use nowdays?

Hi folks. Just dropping a line in the forums, familiarize myself with the people and forum layout.
