Tony Moore: Hi, I am Tony Moore with Fraser Street Publications. Today we are showing you how to use an airbrush. In this segment, we'll talk about controlling the airbrush, paint and airflow. First, push down on the airbrush to get air, then pull back to get paint. Make nice, even strokes. Press down and continue to move it across using your upper body.

You don't want to stop in the middle of a line because it makes a blob.

In the next segment, we'll cover basic spray techniques.
