Great tutorial I have been struggling with hair and this makes it look much easier I love how little you added to the white base to get the texture ...

That hair hack is sublime! I tried it today and It brought so much more realism to the portrait

Thanks a ton for this tutorial! That was a generous gesture teaching the secrets of air brushing. Loved to discover the hair do! How wonderful to be out of the mystery of it all! I've been an artist for ages but couldn't do photorealistic work like this! God bless you! Fantastic job

Hi Bill, thanks for taking the time and effort to make this video. I probably don't have a lot of time left as I"m 81 but I would like to be able to paint a few realistic portraits. I have been working on proportions so now it would be fun to airbrush some of my drawings. I'm going to watch your videos over and over to be able to do this. Thanks agaIn! Glen

Thank you. That's quite impressive. I have never done airbrushing and want to learn. Can I ask you what canvas you used? Should I prime the canvas for smoothest surface for portraits? Thanks.
