My first attempt at air brushing

Hi all,
This is my first attempt at air brushing, I've had this idea of the colour that I wanted to do for about 5 years. Last Christmas my wife bought me an air brush kit and this is my first go. I call it "Carribean sea burst", this is just the stain with 1 coat of lacquer on just to seal it, I've got to lacquer it as yet. This will be my D10 when it is finished, this is because the quilted maple that I got was a one off, the guy at the wood store said that in all his years he had never seen such a beautiful piece of wood. I do hope that you like it.

Jim that was Photoshop CS5, it started to whimper when I loaded the picture, then tears came out the monitor, smoke came from the keyboard, and then a complete refusal to comply. :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
