Hi,

My website is a collection of airbrush tips. It's mostly aimed at model builders, but there is general information too. I'd really appreciate any comments you might have. There are no ads and I'm not selling anything.

Thanks

Don, just read right through your site and have to say you've done a superb job, clear, concise and very well explained. Only wish I'd been able to read through such an informative site when I'd first started playing about with an airbrush, would have saved me a lot of time that's for sure. Couple of tips in there I really like the sound of and will no doubt be trying out myself :080402cool_prv:


Thanks for sharing.

Cowboy could not have said it any better. I get the feeling that you are laid back and easy going when I read your writing. The only thing I would do since we are all some type of artist, is to have a picture or two demonstrating what you are explaining.

I get the impression that you would make a great teacher too :wink2:

Very nice site!
Your info is well written and concise.
There's only a couple of things I would add into your cleaning routine, but overall, the information and explainations were very well done.
I'd like to be able to say that I wished there was a website or something of this nature when I started airbrushing, but there was no internet in existence at that time, and most of the people who airbrushed kept their cards very close to their vest.
I live in O. C., up near Long Beach, we may have to meet and talk some time!

Thank you all for the nice comments. They mean a lot coming from people with your skills and experience.
Airarts: Can you give me some suggestions of where more pictures would help?
Fontgeek: Can you help me out with what I should add to the cleaning routine?
I really appreciate your feedback.
Thanks again,
Don

Don Wheeler - I have one thing to say... Hats Off to Ya Man! Beautifully written, clear and concise. I'm gonna book mark this site and send it to any students, I teach. Wonderful. Simply Wonderful!
Plus, I agree with what the rest of my family said.... wish that had been written when I first started!

Just occasionally when you are describing something, take a picture of it as well. It just gives a visual reference for some of the newbies. It will also keep interest with artists.

Thanks for the advice. I'll go over it again and see what I can come up with.
I've already added a couple of pictures to the cleaning page.
