Back in the saddle

Ok guys, thanks for the help, will look at the airbrush section.

Regards

Steve

I would recommend becoming familiar with the Painting and Airbrushing forum, down near the bottom of the forums.  Lots of good stuff about airbrushing, both equipment and techniques.

Thanks guys, and I will repost in the correct category.

I came sum it up with one word. (It also applies to everything from sports to cooking to musical instruments.)

Practice, practice, practice.

Well, thats more than one word but its the same word.

Gather up stuff like 2 liter soda bottles. Gallon water jugs. Anything plastic. Resign yourself to going through a couple of jars each of different kinds of paint.

Then have fun and paint stuff. Take any pressure (pun intended) off of yourself to not screw up a model. I found that it took me quite a while to get the feel for it, during which time I wouldn't have really wanted to paint anything I cared about.

Good luck, you will do fine!

Will do. Thanks Jim.

Hi Steve,

I'm fairly new at airbrushing myself so I don't give much advice.  I just soak it into what greymatter I have left after building for 68 of my 74 years.  If you go to the Painting and Airbrushing section of these Forums, I'm sure that the members will be very happy to give you all the info you need, and more.

Good luck and let us know how you make out by posting pics of your builds.

Jim
