Practice, ALOT, on paper first. I found AIRopaque paints to be pretty good for practicing. Good flow, nice colors, and cleans up with Windex. I did a vanity plate for myself and a few others MANY years ago using the AirOpaque paints and they held up really well. It made eliminating the mistakes really easy too. But school took up too much time and had to give up the airbrushing bit before I got into cars and bikes.

I keep saying that one of these days I'll get back into it. That'll happen about the same time I start excercising again.

Model airplanes is a huge hobby around here, so I wouldn't think that it would be too difficult to find a place for supplies. But check online too. There's a ton of places online to get paints, masket, instructional videos...

Good luck with it!

Mateo's in Waldorf is a good source for auto painting supplies.

Dougs Hobby Shop in Hollywood should have some since they consolidated.

Wow. That would take a LOT of paint.

I bought a nice double-action airbrush on ebay for about $20 several years ago and I'm still using it. I would also recommend investing in a good compressor rather than tossing money away on cans of air.
