41 years old and just starting out

[jerseycrazee]

hi all
well like the title says 41 and just picked up an airbrush....lol it may be a mid life crisis......j/k i hope not though,,
actually i have always have had an interest in the arts(since i was young) and can (from what people have told me ) draw a bit so i thought after seeing some amazing pieces of work done with an airbrush i had to try it.....
i mean shading and fine lines with a pencil is one thing i am adept at but man am i ever having forty fits with this little gem ...lol but its all good i am very stubborn and will not bow down to defeat...lolololol
i just picked up a badger 155 (last saturday) a 100lb 2 gallon compressor and i have a top of the regulator (thanks work) thats good to 60 pounds pressure
so i guess i have it all to get started
(oops your right blingdog i did pick up a 4oz of black createx)
all suggestions and comments are always welcome to help bend this learing curve

thanks and god bless
ron

Welcome Ron! Oh, by the way, you'll need some paint for that! Looking forward to your participation. Don't feel bad, I am mid fifties, hadn't picked up an airbrush since about 1979, I am back and have the addiction bad. I always end up feeling like I accomplished nothing if I haven't laid down a little paint before I lay my head down for the night. Enjoy the forum!

Hi Ron, Welcome to the forum!
You'll love it here.
Friendly folks, both those that have lots of info to share and lots of those that eagerly seek help.
I've been airbrushing almost thirty years and I'm still learning.
It's an ongoing process.
That's what's so exciting, you're always learning.

Keep at it...
and you're on the right track: PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE

There's no getting around that one.
