Airbrush work - First outing

First outing with the airbrush, just messing around, learned a lot from this one little jaunt! Mainly about the texture and consistency of the different colours of make-up, and how many layers you can add and how thickly before you get "caking".

Added some more flow around the contours of the face to see if I could save the 'test mess', turned out much better as a result. Lesson from this was to have shapes on top that follow the contours, and don't just leave lumps of colours around.

Airbrush - Get!

After seeing an amazing airbrush artist on a night out, and reading in a lot of the tutorials and manuals I have that an airbrush is great for nice smooth detail, I decided to get one. I received a Paasche single action airbrush set with a basic compressor.

No more endless sponging on make-up for myself and my test subjects! :p
 



That's my first test ever, thanks to Margaux for taking the hit!
