Hi guys,

I'm very new to painting models and recently bought myself a simple kit to start with. I'm very new to this and is looking on hand painting the kit since i cannot afford airbrushing kit yet.

A)Let me get this few items straight with you guys for painting. Planning to
buy,

1. Primer for light and dark colour
2. Acrylic paints
3. Brush
4. Thinner

B) Anything else i should add?

C) ALso, can i buy the the four CYMK acrylic colours off the art shops and
mix em myself as it is cheaper this way, and i have more experience
with mixing paints. Will this way work?

ANother thing is, to the PROs out there, any way to ensure uniformity through paint brushing? or i need to buy spray can paints from hobby shops for large surface areas?
THanks a lot guys.
