>>6189753>Sure, but I still want to know the answer.Okay, here goes:
If someone who painted with an airbrush every day for a year paints a kit, it will look amazing.
If someone who painted with spraycans every day for a year paints a kit, it will look just as amazing (but they will probably spend more time and money achieving the same result).
If you are into fancy shading and gradients and artsy shit, airbrush will get you there faster and it will be cheaper in the long run.
However, if you are into "standard" gunpla paintjobs like pic related, you will get results faster with cans because even coverage will be easier to achieve.
Either way, you are looking at months of practice before you start seeing something consistently good.
