    Thinner lines means you have to be very close against the model, very slowly move the trigger backwards so a subtle stream of paint comes out.

    I strongly advice to practice this on a paper and not on your model :thumb2:

      That don't look to bad at all. Practice makes perfect, so just keep at it.
      The airbrush you dropped, I take it that the needle tip got a whack. They can be sorted if not to bad.
      Re the compressor. As there are as many different compressors as there are cars, maybe a photo will help us help you.
      Cheers.

        It wasn't the needle that got damaged. It was the small nozzle it slides into by the front. its #3 in the diagram.

          Todays progress. I know its not perfect, but I spent a good part of my day on it. the preside lines look darker then they are from the lighting. Opinion's?

            Yep thats a nasty bit to damage. I have broken a few of those in the past! Right little beggars to get out once broken off!
            The shade work looks pretty good by the way.
