Thanks for reposting your vid. You definitely have a talent there. I'm thinking back to when I learned airbrush. I think we used Friskit, not stencils. And didn't get much time to practise much with it. You make me want to dig out my old Badger and little compressor, and see what I can do.
Just to clarify, you didn't airbrush before this, did you.

I have never used an air brush before this. I did some pencil sketches when I was in high school but that's it.
I just jump into things.

Sure, no harm in stencil use. One of the premier motorcycle airbrush artists in Las Vegas uses multi piece vinyl on the more complex designs, and removes and blocks out areas as he paints.. I know, cause my shop makes his vinyls. Stenciling is just a technique, like sponge and brush combinations. It's the concept and end results that define the artist. Keep up the good work.. Absolutely!
Stencils are a vital part of airbrushing... Aside from cut stencils, it's common to use torn paper, circle or elipse-guides, French-curves, lace, fishnet, leaves, twigs, etc. and for "fish-scales" the good old thumb or finger-tip. I find with airbrush work, I seldom work totally freehand, since usually a hard edge is needed on at least one side of the spray. I'm amazed at how many effects can be done with a simple edge of a thin piece of cardboard, either straight, or, cut to a shape! And you can vary the edge a WHOLE lot simply by holding it close to the surface for a hard edge, or moving it away for softer "ghosting". If you airbrush for a lifetime, you'll still keep finding new techniques!
Wait until you discover what you can do with a metallic underbase, and translucent colors shot over it! Keep up the great work!Leo in Texas

Another great job! Looks really good, the two together.
Practise up on some flames, and you seriously can go into business.
So are you done then? Or what's the next step?
