Default Airbrush / compressor conundrum

I use an old touch up gun and cheapie Lidl compressor for applying mask fluid. With a little water to thin it, the mask goes on beautifully. It does need at least two or three thick coats though, or it's too thin and stretchy!

For paint I use an Iwata SBS and a near silent 'Shark' compressor from airbrushes.com It's a bit heavy tho for the really fine work. Either that or I've got a bit to learn!!!

Here's my latest. Not quite up to John's standard but I'm pretty pleased, with a growing queue at the local club...


cheers

Julian
