Hi Everyone :hug:  :hug:  :hug:
Hope you are all having a great weekend. I have been busy creating Sunset. I was fortunate enough to buy an airbrush and have been having great fun experimenting with painting onto fabrics. Sunset is my first creation. She is made from super long 60mm white faux fur and golden mohair, which has been shaded in oranges and browns. I hope you like her, more info and photos can be seen at http://www.bearpile.com/item/55110 Hope you like her and many thanks for stopping by :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Sunset is wonderful! You did a fab job airbrushing! Isn't it  fun? I love to airbrush. Though I hate cleaning the darn thing out. Seems to be clogged every time I start to use it no matter how much I clean it after using it.

Thank you so much Pink and Beth :hug:  :hug:  :hug: lol ... Beth, I have all that 'fun' to come   I have heard all about the joy of cleaning, I spent ages yesterday cleaning the airbrush through, thought I'd finished, only to find when I put air through, the colour still came out!!!!! It is so much fun though, and something that I have been dying to try for ages. I am really looking forward to learning and experimenting. :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

Wow - fab job on airbrushing - I have an airbrush but I am not as fond of that as I am hand shading!  Like Beth said, not fun to clean up!  I have tried a bunch of different paints and inks, can't seem to get the brilliant results you did, maybe it's because I'm afraid of the darned thing!  :crackup:

Thanks Thelma :hug:  :hug:  :hug: sorry to hear about your airbrush experience. I am a complete novice   and have been taking advice from my hubby who has had airbrushes for years. I have a lovely big airbrush book arriving in the next few days so I can bury my head in that and try and learn!!!! I have stuck to my acrylic paints  which I have always used on my bears for shading so I feel confident with using them. :hug:  :hug:
