Location: Okoboji		I have a couple in progress here,,,i am still learning my new airbrush and trying to get the pressure settings down right and making the paint flow the way i want. Otherwise, i am full of ideas and am having fun just getting started.

Location: Okoboji		what pressures are you guys running your guns at,,,i have an iwata cr dual action.. i should add that i am running unreduced creatix.

i got a little crazy with the pearl silver on the top one and kinda took away the scaling effect i was going for but it still looks cool.

Very nice, keep up the good work. I like your color combos. What are you using for the fine scales in the last three? Makes a cool effect.!

Location: Madison, WI		Kodiak,

I reduce my createx (Its all i use) with a home brew of water, denatured alcohol, windex, and glycerol. The color depends on how much but usually 33-50% and I shoot at a pressure around 35 psi. I've never been able to shoot straight createx through my brush. All my work has been done with a $10 HF airbrush, although I have 2 new nice brushes I plan to break out over the holidays to break in the new shop!!

Location: Okoboji		ok here is the pic..finally....

i have some plastic stuff with little holes in it that i found in my wifes scrapbooking stuff.... I used to reduce it with the exact homebrew you described...we used to use that in art class. i can shoot straight with the iwata, i have been running down around 25 psi with this last bait. I can control the fine effects better at the lower pressure.

thanks for the complements...even though you are a badger fan...lol..

Location: Okoboji		i had a killer leopard frog done but when i was doing the outlines of the spots the white just splattered like a texture gun and screwed it all up.... sucked.....

now i am working on a pike that is coming along pretty good...i need advise how to get the gun dialed in so i can do some detail work...i can reduce the paint but should the pressure be higher for detail work or lower..?

i would love to do more crazy new age stuff but i dont know if that stuff catches fish..i know it catches the eye though..

Lowest pressure that the paint will still flow well and remove the tip guard on the airbrush should help.
