Basic Airbrush Lesson One

[wheels007]

My name is Nick Sochaski. I'm from Lethbridge, Alberta. Canada.
I'm a new member and am searching for new tech tips for airbrushing vinyl, helmets, and cars. I read the excersises and had already done them.
Being that I am a self taught airhead, I would just like a couple of ideas as per if there are some tricks or tips that I could use. Attached is a picture of the first challenge that I ever painted. Feel free to grade me on it.
Ps- It took me about 3 hours using Chromabase products from DuPont.[/IMG]

Tried my first Dagger strokes and Dots.
Worked with my AB for about an hour and had to quit to eat dinner

It will be a looong while before I have anything remotely close to show in here.

You experienced folks, keep posting all that cool AB Art for us newbies to see.

Thanks
Craig

I'm with you there. I have been spending about two hours everynight in the garage working with the brush and still know I have A LOT TO LEARN.

Basic Airbrush Lesson One

Thanks Don. I’ve never airbrushed before and picked up an Aztek A370 last night from Wal-Mart.
Funny thing. When I took it out of the box it wasn’t the A370. It was some cheap air over the bottle single action thingy.
It didn’t match the picture or instructions in/on the box or anything I could find on the internet so I took it back. I opened three boxes in the store to find the right sprayer.
Looking forward to getting to know you guys…
