I recommend Vallejo paints, amazing quality, high pigment acrylics.
Brushes NEED to be natural hair, preferably Kolinsky Sable (Winsor Newton series 7 size 0 is my main workhorse, with a 000 for tiny details [ie pupils])
If you use metallic paints, be sure to use a separate jar for rinsing brushes so the glitter doesn't show up in your other colors.
for glue, if working with plastic, Revell Contacta Professional is great and much easier to get where you are than here in the US. If working with metal, I recommend learning how to pin your figures, and using cyanoacrylate glues, which are sold under a variety of names like Loctite here.
Primer, I use vallejo through my airbrush, but I also use automotive primer in a spraycan sometimes. White is my default for bright colors, black for dark/metallics.
there are a lot of GREAT videos online, my favorites being

Same thing, but it's happening whenever the patcher reaches ~25% even if my connection remains constant.
