This isn't nail related as such but i have to tell someone cos my hubbie made me promise not to tell anyone...!
When i started airbrushing i used to catch my hubbie messing with my gun and drawing pictures so i asked if he would like to airbrush my nails...which he does perfectly (but no one know's its him thats done them) Men..!!

Anyway to cut a long story short i booked him on to a airbrushing course to learn how to airbrush crash helmets and petral tanks etc he's a builder but i know he'd like to do something else later on in life. Well i was so shocked at what he brought home i could have cryed. He is amazing. He airbrushed 2 bits of work and they are breath taking. I will try and post them on here so you can all see how talented my hubbis is.

Just needed to tell someone...I'm sooooo proud of him!!

Oh bless ya and so you should be proud of him............it's amazing when you try what you can do, he should do a web site I am sure there is loads of bikies out there that would die for there own design on the tanks and helmets lol.

OMG that sounds rude it's not ment to :0)

Tell him to keep up the good work and we are all rooting for him

Take care Dawnie xx

Thanks Dawnie..!

Me too Diesel.....I'm hoping that in a year or so he will be able to give up the buildings and the airbrushing will have taken off....lol fingers crossed

Hi Jackie

The basic's are the same as nails, even down to prepin a Helmet is roughly the same as nails. The Fish is stencil and the moon is lose paper and free hand.

My hubbie would like to thanks everyone for their lovely comments....When i showed him what i had done he went very red then a great big smile appeared..(thank god)

He couldn't beleive that people liked what he had done. So if anyone wants a helmet or any other bits airbrushed he's your man..!! lol

Thanks everyone

Vicky xxx
