    Default First airbrushed skull

    I did this yesterday with my new Dagr and Auto Air Transparent Root Beer. Just on an 8.5" x 11" piece of paper.

    What? No cracks? Missing teeth? Man, that's one pristine skull! You know I'm just playing. :p

    That looks pretty damn good though. How long did it take?
    People are stupid; given proper motivation, almost anyone will believe almost anything. Because people are stupid, they will believe a lie because they want to believe it's true, or because they are afraid it might be true. People’s heads are full of knowledge, facts, and beliefs, and most of it is false, yet they think it all true. People are stupid; they can only rarely tell the difference between a lie and the truth, and yet they are confident they can, and so are all the easier to fool.

    Thanks everyone. Having this new brush is like night and day compared to my old. For one, it's a gravity feed brush, so I can actually spray with lower air pressure as compared to before. It's also a top shelf brush made by Devilbiss. It's also been modified and customized by the guy who helped design it. He polished the needle, shaved the trigger, lapped the nozzle, oiled everything, and custom etched his logo on the paint cup and cap. I have control like I've never known before, and pulling hairlines is a breeze. This took me about 20 minutes. It's just a test piece with the new brush and paint. I have a bigger version of the same stencil. I'm gonna break that out and see if I can get at least an hour to spend on it, and really pay attention to detail while also using a reference picture.

    That's an awesome start with the new brush Rick. I am kinda jealous of that brush. It would be a waste in my hands though as I still can not pull a straight dagger stroke that's not round at the top.

    Don't worry about making them straight right now, Charles. Practice getting the motions down, but also practice making just straight lines. Once you master both, you'll be able to pull straight daggers.
