Jeff,

I know how you feel. Sometimes I get all of my airbrushes out just to look at them and feel the action of them. I know, I know, I'm weird. Big Smile [:D]

You two give a whole new meaning to the phrase "Air Guitar" Smile [:)]

Have you finished painting the whole house yet?

None of my business, Jeff, but just to try and help you keep from making a mistake, is this your first airbrush or do you have some experience with them? If you haven't played with one before you should probably get some sheets of styrene and some junky paint and practice a bit first. They can be finicky and very seldom does someone just pick one up for the first time and start spraying perfect paint jobs. I'd hate to see you mess up the models you've been saving.

Good advice Scott.
Find an old model to practice on or any other hard surface.

I have quit a bit of experience with airbrushes, enough to know also when you get a new brush of a type you never have used before...Omni in this case you should practice with it first anyways. No matter how much experience you have.

Good enough for me. You'd be surprised at the number of people who post here about getting a new airbrush one day and post the next day disappointed with the results they are getting. Just didn't want you to be one of them.

Enjoy it, it's a great brush.

Either that is supposed to say "Coast Airbrush" and you are dyslexic or that is a store I have never heard of. Laugh [(-D]
