Airbrush Artist's Pocket Palette


2 out of 5 stars This book is bad book for a beginner.   January 3, 2002
12 out of 12 found this review helpful

As a beginner I found this book to be inadequate for my needs. There are 63 pages of nicely spiral bound(book lies flat) examples of various effects. That is to say... 63 pages of coloful rectangles with some comments about how to achieve a particular effect. It's sort of like reading the ingredients for a recipe but not telling you how to mix the ingredients or cook it.

I imagine that this book has some use to an experienced airbrusher but I suspect that once you have the experience the book is not very useful and is merely a nice 63 page of pretty rectangles.

This was not a good book for me.


5 out of 5 stars Excellent examples and wonderful illustrations   April 16, 2000

The Airbrush Artist's Pocket Palette is filled with wonderful techniques to create hundreds of effects and textures. I would not know how to create hair, skin, wood, metallic surfaces, stone or highlights with my airbrush without this book.

You will need to have some knowledge about color palettes and airbrushes to fully understand the techniques descibed in the book.

The book also contains several pieces of completed artwork. The techniques they used to create the paintings are described with the corresponding painting.

I have enjoyed this book since the day I bought it.
