I didnt realize just how long its been since my airbrush went kaplooey on the floor, 8 months! Thanks to a fellow Blab member I found a much cheaper supplier and confidence that its an easy repair. So the part and a new needle are on their way! I cant wait to airbrush, the oils have been a fun learing process and will still do some, but for big pieces I want my airbrush :)
So I am open to a commission or two now for trad resins. I also have a stage mom and child star extra set I may paint for myself or I may be willing to take commissions on. Contact me if you are interested!
And my plug for Bear Air wouldnt be complete without their URL

My dog ate my homework!!!!
Well not quite but he did cause my airbrush to hit the floor GACK! bad goggie :(
It was on the cup side when I got back to it (after letting the dog back in) so I thought I got lucky, until I tried to take the needle out! It was firmly jammed into the nose of the airbrush. So firm it took a good 10 minutes of pulling from the back with a pliers and a little lube...oh wait that sounds like something not appropriate for this particular blog :0 It sort of works, the needle looks ok but I think the opening at the nose of the airbrush is a tad bigger than it used to be? I didnt have much time to deal with it before bed, but I bet I will need a replacement part or 2, just what I needed!
At least I'm working on roans right now he he! Heres the TWH after a short first session, lots to do but coming along nicely. Quick pix from the studio dont do her justice, and shes a bit darker than the pix look.
