Well i picked up the AB for the first time since op etc on my arm and tendons and i am just like a complete newbie all over again with no control what so ever . So i will be doing all the tutorials over again

.So anyone who has had any ops on their AB hand arm etc have any recommendations that may assist in me getting back what i have lost would be most appreciated .ATM i can do 5 mins tops before a lot of pain sets in .Thanx in advance for any tips and tricks .
I wondered where you'd disappeared to, Good to see you back again.
I'm in no position to teach you anything about airbrushing, but I think your biggest hurdle at the moment is to get your strength and control back, I've never had such an operation, but I'm constantly plagued with lung infections which leaves me weak even after the infection is cured, as I understand it, as well as the pain you'll be experiencing a little shakiness as you try to work.
The best advice I can give you, and it works for me, is to devise some control exercises or physiotherapy if you will, I move my arms up and down and rotate my wrists, this promotes muscle strength, and I also bought a set of those leather juggling balls which I squeeze in my hands to further help strengthen my finger muscles, If you try this, you'll obviously still get tired, but you'll manage a little more each time you do it, I usually do it while watching television to relieve the boredom, since the road to recovery is not the smoothest road.
I wish I could give you more than this, but it's a start at least, and I'm sure the rest of the guys will chip in.
