For best results I suggest you have decal sets professionally made to order. Several decal/transfer makers offer this service for a modest ( relatively ) fee. If what you want is standard lettering evenly spaced it isn't necessary to send them finished artwork. I prefer dry transfers which have the drawback of a steeper learning curve to apply well. As to painting; if you don't have an air brush many makers of modeling paints offer a line of spray can colors. Major drawback from my view is the inability to custom mix colors to your individual color scheme or to thin colors for weathering effects. You might consider buying an "El Cheapo" air brush from Harbor Freight ( www.harborfreight.com ) or some other source. It should do the job for you. All this may seem considerable extra work for a single project but you will eventually have to do all the steps in any event. Good Luck Randy
