My introduction...
I found the board via a link someone made in one of my posts @ granturismo.com about model cars. Seems like you guys have a real nice community here. Some of you guys have some skill. My models are decent, but I brushpaint nearly everything but the major interior pieces and the body. I like to brushpaint though, it just doesn't look as nice as airbrushing it. My current model is the tamiya 360 spider, which I'm airbrushing as much as i can, but masking is a pain, is the tamiya masking tape as good as i hear it is? I'm going to use the CSC method learned here on my 911 gt3 and pug 206 wrc, as both didn't get primed, and the paint was too thin, and it just came out rough on both of them. Anyways just saying Hi to you all.

May I offer you a hearty 'Welcome to AF!!!'?
 Thanks for the help with the airbrush, too.  (see sig)And yes, Tamiya masking tape is great. These guys helped me see the light, and now I preach it, too!  |

Welcome! And yes, Tamiya tape is the only way to go! Rub it down well and use the 'dust it' approach to seal the tape edges first.
