last night polished my needle with Mother's aluminum and mag polish.Was having a hard time making thin lines .I don't know if it was a confidence thing or it really helped but I was able to make this after the last week of frustration.

how big is it? is it all free hand? a great job keep it up !!!!!

I think that you're on a good start. There are some nice details there. The more control you have on your airbrush, the finer the lines you can do. So I'm sure it's not a matter of confidence only. Tuning your airbrush and practice cango a long way.

Keep on the good work.

Hi

Great start!!!
I think you will get a better control if you thin more your paint.
Thin a lot and work slowly, coat after coat , until you get the dark color you want.

Thanks everybody, It's 7" by 3" ,I made a stencil for out side line. tried useing a hand stencil but felt I had better control with both hands on the brush. I took a picture of my toy ,my photo softwear has a thing called coloring book then i used that to make a stencil out of x-ray material.

what photo software do you use because the outline pic you produced is exactly what i would love to use for stencils

The softwear is Kodak easyshare version 5.2.30.80 and I am pretty sure Its a free download.
