Greetings:
Can someone please reccomend a good how-to book for AirBrushing?
I have ordered the Badger 155 Anthem airbrush.
Thanks
Wyman
I have neither read the book nor used an airbrush, but I work for the company so I feel compelled to mention this book. [;)]

Bob Downie’s book (posged above) is one of the best I’ve ever read. It’s a ‘staple’ for the how-to section…

Did you notice there is a T&C Omni on the cover and NOT an Iwata? [:D]
This guy knows what’s good. [^]

Not to worry, pal…Your secret’s safe with me. [;)]
I have that book, and I’m done reading it. It’s in perfect condition. Do you want to buy it from me?
Aftermarket:
Sure, I am interested in buying the “How to AirBrush” book from you.
Send me your price to my email address : wymanlee@telus.net
Thanks.

Wyman, don’t be intimidated by an airbrush just because it looks fancier than a handbrush. Just set yourself up and start spraying. Practice on a piece of paper or cardboard. Save yourself the cash for paint and other essential stuff.
Every airbrush model has a different temper and you getting the feel for the tool is more important than all the airbrushing theory in the world.
Good advice MonsterZero. [:)]

I wouldn’t recommend the Osprey book on Airbrushing…I learned practically nothing from it…
