I would have but these are not car art. I do have some of my car sketches though over in car art. Havent tried painting cars im still trying different techniques in shading,lighting and blending.

Nice canvis work. I also do some painting, though mostly airbrush work. I do like water color and color pencils too. I've been doing a few mail boxes. This was on a piece of card stock, testing out some water borne auto air...

Nice, I will eventually get into airbrushing(when I learn my gun) I want a gravity fed airbrush. I will eventually get into oils and water-colour. Very little color pencils and oil crayons. Im doing a sketch of a family in our church right now. It will be just black and white.

I have 6 air brushes and their all siphon feed with plug in cups for them. After tryin ta use the cups I decided it was much easier ta clean them using bottles of thinner rather than fool with the cups. Their a real pain, haven't used one since. Just some advice.

I have a few of each style. If you plan on switching colors alot on the same job (like tee shirts) then a bottle fed is the way to go. but I prefer the control and compact size of a fixed cup grav fed. just my 2 cents.

I cant seem to get mine to work right, It uses a cup but when I thinned the paint nothing would come through. It clogged the needle. I took it apart, cleaned it and re-assembled it and shot water through it.

Can I leave the paint in the bottles?
