Wow, Ken,
That's incredible. I've used a Pasche, both double and single action, and I admit the changing of tips and needles is a pain. I don't use the airbrush often, so I have to relearn it each time I get them out to use.

I love the minute detail in the blue eyes. What a talent you have to get that amount of detail in a small area. I've got to look up the Iwata.

For the record, when painting fish, I find that getting paint from a taxidermy supply catalogue is great. They have all the color combinations, plus painting charts for many different fish--and you can get petroleum or water based paint--for painting on wood.

Iwata it also my best one...

I did a lot of airbrushing on paper, and I want to do some on carving when I have time or need it.
