My first attempt at painting a blank

I picked up a blank pull of a Cryptkeeper mask and figured I'd give it a shot this weekend. Keep in mind this is my first try at this and the first time I've actually used an airbrush (ade from practicing on pieces of cardboard). I made a few mistakes along the way but that's how I learn.

Yes it could have turned out better and once I have more experience doing these I might redo it. I'm still quite pleased with how it turned out for a first time effort.

With a first time looking the way that, does, I can't see any reason in EVER redoing it... Looks Fantastic!!!
