Her book titled, Custom Automotive & Motorcycle Airbrushing teaches never before seen techniques. These techniques are her own exclusive techniques she created and she is sharing them with you. Shanteau offers visual DVD and vhs tapes to help other learn how to create airbrush art on automotives and motorcycles. The great thing with airbrush art is that you really do not have to know how to draw. All you need to know how to do is successfully use the stencil that you wish to use for your design. The main key is learning how to control the airbrush gun so that you can get the paint only where you want it and not overcast the paint where you do not want it. This could give you a little bit more of an edge over taking a work shop where the instructor has many people to teach at one time. Once you have mastered your skills in micro airbrush art you will be amazed at the amount of detail that you can place in any airbrushing project. This ability will help set you apart from the rest of the competition and allow you to reach the top of the airbrush art industry. Your airbrush will have a back lever as well that acts to shut off the air flow and paint flow when the trigger is released. If this should be come damaged then you could have serious problems with your airbrush. Don't worry though it is not hard to replace these parts should there be any damage. Your airbrush will have a handle on which you can hold onto the airbrush with. You will need a air compressor that is designed for airbrushing on nails. The best air compressor to use is the Iwata Studios Series Silver Jet Air Compressor. While this one is the best one you can go with any small compressor that has an 18 psi. Preferably get an air compressor that will adjust between 10-18 psi if you do not go with the Iwata Silver Jet. This will help the paint to stay on the skin better. Acrylic nail art paint is needed when doing airbrushing art on nails. These paints clean up with water while they are still wet. So if you do get any on the skin or another surface where not needed then clean up immediately while it is still wet. The paint will become permanent when it dries.
