Always a delight to what ur up to next. Great great work again. Are you still working on a large scale for your latest works? Keep it up. Haven't made the foray into airbrushing yet but I think I just need to give it go and get practising. Any advice? Or particular brands to avoid?! Anyway, all the best Simon.

thanks modstar

this isnt quite as large as my big paintings, I'm not sure if I will be doing any very large pieces for quite some time.

Airbrushing... erm yeah its got it good and bad points as with any art media. good... very easy to blend colour and lay down quick layers of paint... bad... its forever blocking and needs cleaning, very difficult to do tiny details.

a combination of both paint brush and airbrush makes for the best results if you want tight realism.
Iwata brand of brushes are best and liquitex paints or inks.

best of luck
