Hey buddy, my pleasure. Glad you had fun, that's the main thing.
Any questions just give me a shout.
Looks like you did a good job on the shell mate. You didn't use the pinstriping by the look of it, or is it just the pics?

[grimidol]

I would like to say it is just the picture lol no I had a novice problem with that part but know what I did wrong hehe the paint is so easy to fade together going to buy another shell very soon and practice Hmmmmmm could just buy some sheets ?

[jonmiller]

yep, just buy some a4 polycarbonate sheets off ebay to practice one. 1mm is the thiness on ebay but if you ask some of the sellers they will have thinner.

did you have a look through the basic step by step on using the masks on my site?

got some cheap translucent paints for sale

JON any recomandations, im looking to do my own shells, im thinking of getting some colours and liqud mask from you.

im looking for airbrush kit wiv a compressor or just a compressed can, any recomendations for under £80 ?

If you want some cheap practice "canvas" try 2ltr pop bottles. Chop the top and bottom off. slice down, it gives a lot of area for zero outlay (bar the initial pop).

Finch - drop me an email buddy and we can discuss. jon@rcsgraphicworx.co.uk


I don't recommend the pop bottles for practice personally as they curl up.
get some 1mm or less polycarbonate sheets. or some cheap plexi glass sheets etc
