Here my introduction.
Being inspired by the videos of the airbrush tutor, I purchased my first chinese knockoff at new years; inspite of the sound advice as delivered by the airbrush tutor. Since then I have been busy with the exercises and a few eyes. (honestly, with mixed results) Time for the leopard I thought.
The first layer was reasonable, but then disaster with the white layer. Lacking both airbrush skills and a decent airbrush, back to practicing fine lines. After 2 sheets of frustration I decided to look for a decent airbrush. I can't make up my mind yet between the Eclipse and the HPC+.
My goal is to create realistic chinese sceneris, sepia portraits, and some nice artwork on canoes and canoe paddles.
Conclusion: newest newbie, wanting to give airbrushing a serious go as a hobby.
For the last few days I have been reading several threads of the forum and boy what an inspiration!
Very impressed with the art you all produce. The level of skill seems light years away for me, but I certainly can appreciate and enjoy the skills of others.
I hope that in the distant future, after an enormous amount of practice, I can post an acceptable artwork.
In the meantime, I look forward to reading new step by steps and pictures of the great new artworks.
Best regards from the Netherlands,
Jasper

) but because it is the drop in (compression fit) type, ut is easier to handle, and there is no fear of damaging or snapping of threads. The preset handle is only a benefit if you are going to spray an area without needing to move the trigger or, you may have a condition with your hands that means you find control difficult. You really need to be able to vary your trigger control from moment to moment and so it's likely not something you will need. I have one on the micron and never used it.
