Yep, that is possibly the best write up on painting I have ever read. Definitely deserves to be mentioned in RCCA.
Good job, Haunted! Thanks!

Great article!!! It saves alot of searching for tips on here and answers a few questions I had
("How did you....?").

Very cool site!! That will save me back pain from lifting my 45,000 old copies of RCCA out of the attic when I need a tip!!

Fantastic job! You should think about publishing and selling it.

Great Job HM!
I tried the picture thing inside of a body, except I must have used too much elmers glue, because when it dried, it became very hard and brittle and cracked.
Next time, I'm gonna try the XXX-Main picture glue if I can find a hobby shop that will carry it.

I have to add my kudos to the gathering throng .... alll devotees of the grand guru... Thanks a ton for all your hard work and clear concise manner. The explanations make it understandable for us mere mortals to get results from the infernal but much loved airbrush. Thanks again..HM... you are a star!!!!:cool: :cool:

Wow, HM, thats great man! RCCA should definitely, at the very least, mention something about that, if not print it as a special article! Keep up the good work!
Thats awsome HM but whatever I read will never cure how horable I'm at painting bodys hehe. Well I'm not to bad but not nice.

:mad: WELL, I DID NOT FIND IT THE LEAST BIT HELPFUL!! :confused:
Oh, wait a minute... oh yeah, I am sorry. It did not help me because I, strangley enough, do not paint my bodies! :)
I guess I am just kind of weird like that, I like them clear... well except for the dirt, exhaust, grime and stuff :p .
I probably will not ever make it into "Readers Rides"!!!

Thanks all! I appreciate all your kind words. That is the updated version and I've tried to give credit from whom ever I remembered I got an idea from, so the thanks goes to them as well!
