        Stunning work!

        Thank you for sharing those with us John - superb! I especially like the teapot. But all of your work is awesome.

        Thanks all for the positive responses :) "M" that teapot is priced at around £100,000 :sad: We also did another one worth the same. I believe they will be exhibited in a Tea museum which the owner is planning on creating in London somewhere.

          Crikey - I have more expensive tastes than I thought!! :snork:

          If you find out where that exhibition will be at, let us know ... I'd certainly go to see it :blue thumb:

            Me too. I'll be in London in the new year as I have tickets for the Rembrandt exhibition at the national gallery.

                Thanks everyone for the kind words :)
                @joolz68 I used to do the airbrush nail art many years ago. I did a lot of exhibition work at the beauty shows throughout the UK. It was a lot of fun :)
                If you are after a reasonable airbrush i would go for a Paasche V. It's a side feed with interchangeable cups. If you want a high quality professional airbrush then i would recommend the Iwata HP-SB Plus. There are also the very cheap Chinese airbrushes which are a bit hit and miss and haven't the consistency of the Iwata. We normally tell our students to stay away from these but if it's all they can afford then it's better than no airbrush at all.

                      Yes, you can buy a 'T' or 'Y' piece plus quick release adapters from places like machine mart.
