I use acrylic paints for small projects, cleans up (and thins) with water. For large models I use store bought spray cans (base coat with gray, otherwise hand paint). Acrylics can be bought at places like Wal Mart and the colors will match any FS standard.
My basic necessities list includes masking tape, newspaper, adequate ventilation (when using sprays), glue, super-glue, tweezers, sandpaper of various grades, carpet knife blades, etc. Oh yeah, don't forget research- year's ago we didn't have the luxury of the net...

Yours, Mike
