I finally decided to dive further into the painting hobby, and have ordered an Airbrush kit, to be delivered this week. Airbrushing, specifically for hobby gaming and painting, has been a casual interest of mine over the years, but was always intimidating. I am much more of a traditionalist, with brushes doing drybrushing and washes. For the most part, I consider myself passable.
However, given the limited time and scheduling, and my increased volume from 3d printing, I am falling further behind on painting that I really do want to complete. From my research, airbrushing is faster (for some parts), and from what I have seen, can do as good or better for the actual painting quality.
It was convincing enough for me to give it a try. Now it remains to be seen if I can adapt to the new techniques to make it worthwhile.
I opted for a mid-range option – something that wont be too much of a financial risk, and high enough quality to avoid basic frustration. Combining some thinner with my existing Army Painter collection, I am hopeful I can get good results.
