089 Under Pressure!
Look what's arrived! All the way from deepest darkest China; my airbrush compressor is finally here. Actually it didn't take as long as I thought it would which is great.
Now in typical UK fashion it cost more to get it here than anywhere else in the world but I am just about OK with the £100 price tag given it is a twin compressor with a half decent storage tank to go with it.
Having got it going on a test run its also not as noisy as I was worried it might be even with both going full speed. Also once it gets the tank full it switches off anyway making it silent for a decent period.
All in all so far I am pretty pleased with it. Waiting on my airbrush itself to arrive to give it a proper blast!

085 Brushing up
New toys are incoming! I finally fell to the lure of the airbrush and the first bits of kit have arrived.
I have anticipated cocking it up a few times so I invested in cleaning gear first!
I have gone for a Iwata airbrush, a bit of a balance between price and quality after quite some lengthy reviewing and searching.
I have ordered a "go brand" air compressor but still one that has very good reviews, with air tank and twin pistons.
Fingers crossed that I do better than the last time I tried an airbrush; at school some twenty years ago!
