airbrushing
« on: May 15, 2008, 09:05:57 PM »
i broke down and bought an inexpensive air brush to play around with and eventually fix the front of forkedup, i have never done this before, so i know there are people on here who know how to do it properly, paint mixing, air pressure, technique, etc. i am hoping you will share some of your knowledge with me and help a rookie out :) thanks in advance for any and all help

this is what i have so far, i made a stencil and played around tonight for about 45 min
comments and critisisms are more than appreciated ;D

Looks pretty sik, a lot better than I could do. But... IMO too much contrast with the bright white teeth. ? Tone them done somehow. IMO

Search around that web site there are a lot of good dvds to learn from.  I got a couple on fiberglassing.  There's a lot on airbrushing.

I think you don't need any help in the skills dept.  A little schoolin' on pressure and mixing and you are gonna be fine.
