Hi, Ive recently started making my own lures carved from Balsa wood. The carving is not a problem. The thing im having trouble with is finding a quick but classy looking way of painting the lures. Ive got some acrylic paints that I used to use for other models, but these take forever to dry and the painting takes 10 times longer than carving and weighting the lure. Ive read that alot of people on here airbrush theirs. Having never even touched an airbrush can someone give me some tips. What type of paints need to be used when airbrushing, and where do they attach to the gun. Also what type of gun is best. Would a cheap one produce a good final result. Im living off a student budget. Cheers Ben
