I'm jealous of your handi-work.
There are good ships
and wood ships
ships that sail the sea
but the best ships are friendships
and may they

This is kinder garden at best, dreamer can straight throw down some paint so i'm try'n to catch up to him. My paint control is getting better and I'm learning what  paint flow works best. It makes me realize how good the "good" painters really are. Ctom I'm still a frail flower dieing in the shadow you cast. If I could paint like Drew and pour like Ctom I would sale the boats and bask in my greatness  ;D

I think you did a great job on those!!! Your color transitions are really nice as is the layer and depth of color, very well done indeed and I have to add that the patterns are killer!!!

I just finished reading a recommendation from one of Paasche's better trouble shooter regarding the headaches I am having with my air brush. I haven't had a chance to try his suggestion but I hope it takes care of the problem so I can at least paint a solid color.

I gave up on my paasche, it has never worked right! I went with the iwata neo and WOW what a difference! I was like you my paasche wouldn't even Paint a solid color, it spit, spackled and just around sucked. I love my top cup feed!
