Good Day Folks!
I am starting to collect supplies for my next project. My LHS does not have Tamiya AS-29 grey/blue in a spray can, so I am looking for suggestions on alternatives. I am going to be building my first Aircraft, the Tamiya 1/48 Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero Fighter. I really didn't want to pay the $4-$6 dollars shipping + the cost of the paint itself, for 1 small can of paint.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions,
-Steven

I have an airbrush, however I do not have a compressor at this time (saving my pennies for a "good one")

ah yes that would help No doubt about it, but some time ago I recall buying compressed air cans to be used with airbrushes.... Maybe that could solve the prob... |
