discussion My first test piece with airbrush

[peterairfix]

This is my first test a real air brushing use a test aircraft that I always use before the real thing so I just need some opinion on the bits I have tried.
I have had a go at persuading and the mottled German camouflage help and advice much appreciatedView attachment 280712 View attachment 280713

Look okay to me Peter, the preshading looks good although maybe a tad heavy. The mottling looks okay, just small burst and build up as needed.

Poor ME110

Peter what size needle do you have in airbrush ?

Looks like the pressure needs reducing a little.

Thanks as I am tinned air for the moment so it will take a bit of time to sort myself out

Is it a compressor or in a can? If it is in a can the flow rate and control is more difficult.

Peter trying moving the airbrush closer to the kit I normally keep mine within 1-2 inches.
