Welcome to the forum bigfish! There is a lot to see and learn here. I hope you are around for a while.
What country are you in? The reason I ask is that if you are looking to add ABs or need parts for your ABs members knowing where you are can give more precise answers.
And, if you don't mind my asking, what brush(es) do you have/use?
Thank you for posting your location bigfish. I'm a fellow American.
Everyone had to start sometime. There is a long list of those that have remarkable artistic talent here. I'm sure some have natural born talent and others have used practice and persistance to develop theirs. Practice and persistance is what it takes to utilize an airbrush.
I taught myself back in the 1970s. I wasn't born with talent and for what I use an AB for I really haven't needed it. I primarily use automotive paint. I am a scale modeler and I've done some larger pieces like MC helmets, etc. I have done some T-Shirts but I found a way to cheat to do those.
