Hi Charly, In regards to your airbrush, I may be able to give you a little help. To start with they aren't creatures with cut and dried how to do. You need to play and practice a lot. If you don't have one I suggest a book on airbrush use. If you have a two stage A brush one of the great advantages is push down on the air and start your arm movement so you can pull the lever back for release of paint before you come to the actual place you want to paint. now size of your line or dot depends on several things. first the nozzle adjustment (needle placement) secondly air pressure 28# is a good place to start. you can adjust up or down to your satisfaction. thirdly these are not necessarily in chronological order they are all important. the distant you are working from your subject is important on the results you will get and the speed you travel across your subject. leave the action on until after you are passed where you wanted to spray. It is important that you get your medium to the correct density before you put it in your airbrush. You want no chunks or thick spots. how you get these to work for you is Practice, practice , practice.  Good Luck, Jack
