New to Airbrushing from the UK

[Mat]

Hi all
I'm a complete newbie to Airbrushing so i have been doing a lot of watching stuff on Youtube and checking out other bit's and bobs so i think i will be throwing a few questions out there as i'm not sure what set up to begin with I;m a Painter and Decorator by trade but need an operation on my back which may be a complete lifestyle changer so my business may have to stop
Iv'e always wanted to do this but never got round to it with work and then a family so here's hoping it will be the start of something ruddy good And keep me from under the other halves feet hahahaha

Hi, Mat, and welcome from another Brit !
As has already been said you have found the best place to learn airbrushing.
I've learned such a lot here already.
In one of my past hobbies I was told to join a club, find the club expert and avoid him like the plague.
That's not so here !
Watch all the Airbrush Tutor videos and absorb his every word. The guy is a genius
Likewise with all who respond to your questions. Everyone is extremely encouraging and knowledgeable.
Have fun !

Hi Mat, from a fellow Brit. You'll definately get out from under the other half's feet, if you get as addicted as us, you'll be hunted down as you'll be going AWOL! First things first, get yourself set up. Put some keywords in the searchbox, some of your questions may have already been answered in previous threads, but if not, then ask away.

Welcome to the forum. Its a great place to learn. I screwed my back up a couple years ago and had to find hobbies that I could still enjoy without causing me a lot of pain, and airbrushing has been a true joy. Throw some paint, get some pictures up, and join the conversations. Its a good group of folks here, more than willing to help

Welcome from Holland, Mat...
