Yeah I will eventually graduate back to a tank. But I really can't afford to drop $100 on a compressor at the moment. And rattle cans were chalky because of heat and humidity.

Sharing what I grabbed and mentioned in my last post. $20 and allows me to prime with paint so no chalky rattle can in the humidity.

I got myself one of those cheap airbrushes from Amazon at around $20 that is USB-C rechargeable. I'd not want to use it for details but it serves as a decent primer sprayer as I'm in a place where rattle cans can only be used 1 month a year. #Warhammer #Warhammer40k #BlackTemplars #Hobby

Does anyone else get second leg syndrome? Building one thing then not wanting to build the same thing again. Well I do, so sometimes I build the waist before the second leg. #Plamo #Gundam #Gunpla

And the one table they had left was a demo board/paint demo area for new folks.
That is some dedication!
