Model Building - What do I need?

Thanks guys. I'll check out those spray paint cans. I didn't know they made them. I always just used the little Testors bottles.

I didn't know there were airbrushes that could use the compressed air cans, either. I will check those out. I've got a 60 gal air compressor in the garage. Would one of the airbrushes work with that? I never really gave it much thought because I thought the connectors would be different.

Right now, my main goal will probably be to get a good quality Titanic model, but paint it up to look like Britannic. I've always wanted to do Britannic, but since there are no actual model kits of the ship I will have to convert a Titanic model.

I really want to know my options, because I want to do it right this time. I've got alot of model ships that I did years ago when I was alot younger. I looked at them last night for the first time in a long time. My initial thought was, I want to throw them all out and start over.
