Hi all,
I like to build model rockets and was using spray paint. But after yet another can sprayed ricotta cheese like textured paint, I wanted to have more control over my paint. So I got a Paasche H and a compressor with a tank and am loving it.
There is definitely a learning curve. I had some problems thinning paint at first and I still struggle with getting the right pressure but I'm already seeing better results than with spray cans.
I have mostly painted solid blocks of colors or stripes on my models, but I hope to learn to do some fades and maybe work my way up to some old school hot rod flames.
I love the variety of colors available. The first rocket I painted with my airbrush was iridescent purple and I got many compliments when I launched it.
I look forward to meeting you all and learning from you!
