Nice work. Kinda hard to see the details because of the glare off the lexan, but from what I see it looks nice. Nice job on the skull.

That's some mighty nice work for a rookie with a airbrush for the first time your technique is surprisingly sophisticated. |

Keep posting up your results. I think you probably have some natural skills for this painting thing.

There is a HUGE difference though airbrushing a lexan body than normal stuff though. Totally different technique. Painting stuff like this, the person has to see the image before its even there to do the shading.. Not saying these are harder... ok maybe I am..lol.. Painting normally is hard enough but in reverse is even harder.. to me anyway

Looks good. One thing I noticed is that people tend to put to much detail into the areas that are gonna be cut off for clearence reasons, might wanna keep that in mind. |

To set the record straight these guys have been painting for years but this was the first time on lexan. Those pics dont do it justice at all. |
