Default What paint to use on GWS foam, and how to camo?

Hey, I was wondering what type of paint you use on GWS foam and how do you paint on camo so it looks neat?

I used acrylic paints on my GWS Spitfire.

Best cheap solution for me has been the "folk art" or "apple barrel" acrylic craft paints available at wal-mart or any craft store. Between 40 and 80 cents for a two ounce bottle. Wide variety of pre-mixed colors.

The Wal-Mart acrilics are great. I run them thru my air brush. As far a camo you can do just fine with the airbrush, its a random pattern anyway.
