Vandaman's Ghost Flames is a good DVD or Video to spring for, its short but he covers a lot of ground, taping out flames, using a pounce to duplicate your pattern, using pearls, how to spray etc; Watching is better for me than reading. Coast Air Bruch has a great selcetion of his and others videos. PS you definitely can use an air brush for MC tins and smaller subjects. AL

Airbrush Action magazine almost always has articles on custom painting. Not sure the best way for you to get copies in the UK, but you can check out their website at www.airbrushaction.com.
