Hi guys, I've got a couple of die-cast 1:18 cars, & a couple of 1:10 tanks, but nothing spectacular. Anyway, I'm more interested in building scale models, & have a small collection of 1:72, & 1:48 scale, plastic kits of model aircraft. The kits are by Academy, bought them when they were available in plenty here in Chennai.

I'd like to build these in the way they were meant to be built, but I'm having trouble sourcing the associated paraphernalia, viz. airbrushes, model paint, epoxy, & stuff. For those in Chennai, I've already tried 'India Hobby Center', they were no help. Could somebody who's had success with this help me out ? Are Humbrol, & Revell, products available here in India ?
