AIR BRUSHERS UNITE!

[Nocturnal]

Be it for models, or t-shirt, or just plain old fun... Where and when do you practice your air brushing? I was into doing it on t-shirts and the like. But I don't have enough money to keep buying t-shirts to practice on. What would any of you air brushers out there recommend practicing on? I have a Badger Crecendo and a Badger air compressor. I haven't really touched my air brush in over a couple of years. A recent thread here got me stirred up about my air brushing again, though. I might take it out for a spin. But, I don't know where to practice!!! I used to use paper, but that is way too small. I was thinking about buying a huge bed sheet from K-Mart and putting it on a wall and just use it as a practice mural or something. That probably would suffice, what do you think?

I have one of those too, but you would only need to use that if you were running a bunch of air brushes. I have this little badger one that would suffice just fine.

I jsut got one for christmas for painting model cars. I've been trying to teach myself how to use it. The key seems to be getting the right mixture of paint/thinner.
