Life will never be the same!

Seriously. I painted a model with an airbrush for the first time today, and it was a life altering experience. Before today I had always either brush painted or used a spray can. The control and accuracy were both incredible. I was painting a 1/48th scale Russian KV-1 and I was able to get into all of the little corners and crevasses with absolutely no problem. Quite a difference from spray can painting! I know this comes as no surprise to most of you, but for me it was entirely new. Before I got started I sat at the table for several minutes with everything ready to go, terrified that I was going to screw something up. But once I got going and got the hang of it I didn't want to stop. Now I can't wait to start something new just so I can paint it. Truly I am not the same man I was when I woke up this morning.
