Model Building - What do I need?

[Torplexed]

I've found the best way to avoid brushstrokes without an airbrush is to get your ship's base colors in a spray can. Most model paint colors are available in a small pressurized can as well as a bottle. Lay down some newspaper in the garage or some other well-ventilated spot and go to town. Use tape for masking. Really ideal for large models.
