Hey everyone! been lurking here for a long time waiting to begin my next build. I have only built one gunpla before (HG Red Frame) and now that I have some extra time and money, I'm looking to start my second build. I am planning on picking up the HGUC Nu-Gundam or Hi-Nu.

Now, onto my question. How did you guys get your start in painting and panel lining? I am pretty new to this so I was thinking that I should start out with gundam markers, and a top coat before moving on to spray cans and then eventually an air brush. Is this how all of you started out or did you move strait to the spray cans? Any advice you can give to this n00b would be great. Thanks!
