New Guy Questions.....

Ok, so I've been reading every thread and every post trying to see exactly what is involved with building my own plugs, which I really want to try. So, I think I've decided that one of those premade kits, like Salty Buggers is kind of the way to go. But my question is this; as far as finishing the look, what are the steps exactly? Is it sand, seal, paint, epoxy? Or are there various steps in between those? And is it possible to even get a good looking plug without the initial investment in all the airbrushing equipment? Kind of lost here. Any info would be great, and remember that I'm beyond new at this, so acronyms and plug builder lingo and equipment tend to get lost on me. Thanks again, you guys are always great with the help!!
