nice one love the open mouth good detail with the tong and teeth

nice paint job did you use the airbrush should sit well on a chestnut shank will give a good contrast

Hi Cobalt

yes the airbrush was used, the only masking I did was masking fluid on the eyes with a plasticine plug for the mouth/teeth area.

good use of plastercine never thougth of it

the more work i see of peoples painting using the airbrush it makes me consider getting one myself.

A watch a american face book wild life site and the carving and painting are second to none all painted by airbrush and the u tube sites are good . but a good airbrush seems essential

its the sharing of ideas what makes this site

HI the Airbrush kit I started with is this one

http://www.rdgtools.co.uk/cgi-bin/sh000001.pl?WD=airbrush&PN=AIRBRUSH%2dCOMPRESSOR%2d%2dWITH%2dTANK%2d%2dAND%2d2%2dDOUBLE%2dACTION%2dAIRBRUSHES%2d769080%2ehtml#SID=4from RDG Tools

The two brushes supplied were adequate and worked well just not too keen on the undeerslung paint reservoirs for the size of ny toppers so I bought one with a gravity feed top reservoir, and this is the one I prefer, although if I was needing a larger amount of paint for another project I would use one of the original ones.

Outstanding Gloops! Is that one going to someone? I would think U would have a hard time letting that one go
