Hello there I am starting on this road again after taking a detour since my teenage years, where I found wine women and song. Now that I am divorced I have a lot more time to my self so I bought myself the starter set Supermarine Spitfire Mk. Vc, a few weeks ago and I have just opened it and started in the last few days. The photo above is me doing one of my other great passions which is Photography, this was taken at my local camera club portrait night, excuse the dodgy effects the compression of the file has done something to the image :oops: :oops: . My other great passions are music, which is mainly Rock, Blues and pretty much any other genre of music really 8-)

Anyway just thought I would introduce myself and say ow' do 8-) ;-) :mrgreen:
Live long and prosper :mrgreen:

Just a quick question, what is the best way to clean your brushes after using Humbrol Enamel and Acrylic paints? And should you clean the brush in between if you are using both? Yes they are newbie questions but I want to start off the right way :oops: 8-)

White spirit for enamel and water for acrylics. Yes clean your brush in between as they are not compatible products or use different brushes for each (I'm too lazy to). Nip over to the Finishing Tips section if you have more paint related questions.
