The voting is in and the majority voted to meet on December 19th at Colpar Hobbies.

Location:1915 S Havana St, Aurora, CO 80014.  We'll meet in Hugh's Man Cave in the basement of Colpar.  If you haven't been there before from the main floor go down the stairs into the basement.  Turn left through the curtains, then stay left and go down to the end of the basement.  You'll see a bunch of painting equipment and Hugh's spot.


Time:  We'll start at 10:30 since the store doesn't open until 10:00 on Saturday.

Topic:

During this meeting we'll talk about airbrushing, specifically acrylics.  Having a good airbrush and knowing how to use it correctly can improve your results.  We'll review equipment, good practices (thinning, cleaning, masking, safety, etc.), and resolve any mysteries you may have been wondering about.  

If you have any specific questions about airbrushing please send them to me by email and I'll do my best to be prepared.  

Airbrushes:

Below are some good links to airbrushing.  My two favorite for our hobby and the paints we use are the Harder and Steenbeck Evolution and Iwata Revolution.  

Iwata Revolution CR (also compares to the Harder and Steenbeck Evolution

Paint Extractor

Rodrigo recently asked me about paint extractors.  I made my own after a lot of research but there are some good units available on the market.  I like this one best for what we do. This is from a company in the US called Pace Industries.  here's some guys quick review.

Here is the web site for Pace Industries:

As always please bring anything you're working on or have questions about.  We alway like to see new stuff so if you've picked up anything new since the last meeting please share it with us.  I look forward to seeing you in Hugh's man cave.
