Just need to watch some vids on YouTube for process so I can plan it in my head and grab some pop bottles / practise shells.
In the long run if I can make a couple of quid to fund my racing that's all I can ask, just along as it remains fun.
I know Jon sells kits using Peak brushes etc ... I just don't know what to do. I'd like some pc/ mac templates to mock designs up before, am I getting to anal?

And yep, Jon Miller is awesome, arguably the best painter in the UK and maybe the world..... no problem Jon
Not anal... just shows enthusiasm for it, for now....
I guess if you are on a budget, then you have to make a compromise. But my advice is to get one of these kits to start you off ;

I still have one and it gets the job done fine.
The Iwata neo has mixed reviews as it's just a cheap Chinese brush repackaged I think...
You could just get that compressor and one of Jon's peak brush's with paint set etc, think that would do nicely for starters, then see how you go.
I personally think the most important part to this is the actual cutting out of the design, forget lots of fogging and drop shadow's, there useless without good lines.
Just my opinion anyway.
