Good Day to all. My name is Mark and I am 72! I started airbrushing about 15 years ago and would be classified as a novice , although I have done quite a bit of different thing, strictly for my enjoyment. My initial goal, and still my goal, is to be able to do some portrait work of my 14 grand kids before I take the "big dive".
My wife and I spend a lot of time in our den area, each on our computers, watching movies, etc etc. As we do, I spend a lot of time on a Jag forum since I am about 80% thru the restoration of our 1969 Jag XKE Fixed Head Coupe. As a little break, I have started airbrushing as we sit, trying to get back into it!
I can do the individual parts of a portrait, reasonable well, but they never end up looking like the original Picture!!!! I spend a lot of time on youtube, watching others do perfect renditions of photos and try to mirror their actions!! My primary shortcoming is I try to go to fast and end up putting too much paint on!
I hope to learn more about the proper mixing of colors and portrait techniques.
Again, a good day to all and I appreciate you all for the information you provide!

P.S. I should have said I primarily use Createx and Auto Air colors!
