I added on to another reply a statement that most all I've learned about airbrushing came from right here on the Forums. I think it deserves more than a tag line.
I bet that there's not many in this group that's been modelling as long as I have. My first Strombecker was 1938. In 1941 I had a solid scale Messershmitt 109 on display at the local movie theater. I was so bloody proud. It was a kit, I can't remember who's.
Now all these years later my son gave me a Badger 150 and a bunch of canned air. ( He's Allan Buttrick and a master builder. Type in his name on Google Images) So now in my mid-seventies I've got to learn a new medium. Smart guy that I am, I started asking questions here on the FSM Forums. Every question was answered, and now I'm really comfortable with the airbrush. I think that's the right word, "comfortable". Sitting down with an airbrush for the first time is like sitting down in front of a computer for the first time.
So now I have two airbrushes. Lots of jars and stuff. A neat compressor. A big spray booth I built out of a big furniture carton...and I'm comfortable. and my modelling skills have improve 1000%. Thanks to all you guys and your skillful answers.
Now I've just got to figure out how to post pictures. I have a host (Photobucket) and I'm taking digital images. Just can't figure out how to go from the host to here. If anyone can help ) I'm new to windows. An old Apple man) I'd appreciate it. Not here on the forum, but maybe a direct email?
Thanks again,
Bud
