Citadel Paints for sale!

It's been a little while coming, but I've decided to sell my Citadel collection and switch to Vallejo.

Airbrush first test

As promised, a little post about how the very first firing of my airbrush went.  I predicted either a triumphant report of success or a comedy story of paint explosions and near death experiences.  Happily for me (but less entertainingly for you) it's leaning much more towards the former.

Details after, as they say, 'the jump'...

My DIY spray booth

It's my day off from my regular job tomorrow (sound of high fives all round). Thursday also marks the first time I will use my airbrush 'in anger' so to speak.  I'll be able to tell you more about my airbrush experience tomorrow, come-what-may.  It'll either be a triumphant report of success or keystone cops style tragi-comedy, but either way I'll let you know how I got on...

In the meantime I thought I'd talk about the spray booth I made specifically for the airbrush and share a few pics too.

Creating the Tau Battleforce - Step by step Part 1
