Thanks for your praise, however if you'd seen my early attempts at handling an airbrush, you'd have either laughed or cried.
Despite watching hours of YT videos I made every beginner mistake and probably a few more. The most frustrating being forgetting it was an airbrush and rather than placing it back on the stand, simply putting it down like a regular paintbrush..... guess there's no need to describe the mess! Nothing Superman-like in my learning curve I'm afraid :haha:
For any other newbie airbrush users out there please don't follow the often given advice "use a toothpick to stir the paint in the cup". Instead use a decent sized paint brush mixing right to the bottom thoroughly :thumbup:

"Don't 'use a toothpick to stir the paint in the cup.' Instead use a decent sized paint brush mixing right to the bottom thoroughly." That's good advice. And bumbling with an airbrush is normal hobby activity. I still bumble with an airbrush, but, then, I even bumble...
