Simple airbrush, paint and liquid mask recommendation?

[Northy]

Hi guys,

I fancy trying my hand at some simple shells again (I painted a few years ago), they won't be anything really fancy, just blocks of colour separated by black or silver lines probably.

I have a compressor, I'm looking for recommendation of the following:

Decent budget airbrush and the fixings required to connect to my compressor.
Paint.
Liquid mask.

Thanks,

I use a Iwata Neo (about £45) and love it, easy to control and easy to strip and clean.
For Liquid mask I use RCS and for paints I use Vallejo Premium or Creatix.

Another vote for Iwata. I've had a couple of cheap brushes and they are just that.
Createx or fascolor paint and rcs liquid mask

But i'm still using Pactra paint, starting to get down on supplies so i guess I'll be swapping over to water based paint soon...

Iwata Neo is a very good choice indeed. And affordable. If you paint simple layouts, you could also use masking tape instead of liquid mask.

Iwata kustom cs £140, did have veda180's £25, but they are worlds apart. Easier to sell the Iwata if ya decide to give up.

Paints, createx mostly, started getting wicked made by createx but seams to flow better.

3 coats of RCS liquid mask watered down 3 to 1. New 10a blade every body.

A lot of practice, don't be afraid to try new things and YouTube.
