RM50 air pumps...never tried before. although i doubt it'll be able to provide a consistent output of air i.e. the pressure is constant at 10-15psi.

i believe u can find compressors being sold online at around rm450 to 500. those are usually without air tank. air tanks would cost a couple of hundreds more. u can try searching on lelong or ebay malaysia. if not, drop by the local hobby shops and ask. if u're really into the hobby, get urself into the local hobby forums. there're quite a few threads there that talk abt compressors and where to get them.

u can go Vision Art in Sunway. It's one of the shops around One Academy. Ok...it's those shoplots next to Sunway Pyramid, nearby the police station there.

if not, try Hobby HQ...or go lelong those to check out

i believe hobbiescorner may stock paint. if not try msg2u.com or something like that. for local shops, you can try Hobby HQ in KL (Fraser Business Park). Hobby HQ has the most complete range of colors in KL at this point in time. Alternatively, try the toy shops in Berjaya Times Square.

These are for paints to be used on model kits, resin figures, etc. not for your usual metal stuff like grill, etc. those you can just buy from hardware shops. you won't want to buy a 10ml hobby paint that costs as much as a 100ml industrial paint to paint normal items. keep the hobby paints to hobby kits.

Added on July 1, 2009, 1:39 pmhow in depth do you plan for this training? graphics use or hobby use? graphics use is much more complicated than your average joe trying to paint a model kit using airbrush. and if graphics use level...you may want to check out art schools like Lim Kok Wing, One Academy, etc. Although I believe airbrush is a dying art in design schools. Who needs brushes when u can photoshop like hell and then print out in color.

it's the old F&N factory. They've changed it into office lots. That's Fraser Business Park. Hobby HQ is on the 1st floor. Ground floor is empty lot but beside it is a big red sign saying HILTI.
