If you ever get a chance you need to try a Cuaba. Fantastic cigar. Luckily for me, I go to cuba annually. Just got back a couple of weeks ago

When in Canada, I see a lot of cuban cigars... not sure what the quality is (not a cigar smoker)

Living in Canada I take for granted that I can pick up a nice Cuban cigar. The quality is great if the shop you buy em at stores them properly by the way. I have been going to Cuba for family vacations for the past 5 years so I usually just grab some there (much cheaper). I don't smoke em often but when I do, I like a nice quality cigar.

(Sorry for the hijack, but I don't seem to be the only one

The helet looks awesome by the way. Can't wait to see it done.

I love cigars, but never had a Cuban. Is there really a big difference between a Cuban than a cigar like Macanudo ?


Can't wait to see this helmet finished !! I love graffiti, when it's done by someone with skill, like Rev., and the back of that helmet is talking to me !!!!
 
oh yeah Kenny- in the world of Cigars, you havent really smoked a stogie til you've had a Cuban, and, IMO, a GENUINE Cohiba-just sooooo smooth, rich, flavorful-and the buzz is waaaaay better than reg. nicotine

Really nice. My daughter wants to learn how to airbrush. Do you use a regular gun to prime or can you get away with a can ? I don't think the compressor I have will have enough to run a regular gun, but it might do the trick for an airbrush.
 
you can use a can for primer as long as it's a quality paint.

i shop out my prep work but i have a "spray gun" for primer/base colors if need be. the spray gun would need to be able to move thick paint [primer]. yup you'd need a compressor that moves a lot of air for a spray gun.

if you plan on getting your girl an airbrush go with a Iwata Revolution or Iwata Eclipse model, these are the swiss army knives of airbrushing and not too expensive.
 
ways to but here are some pics. i have to add highlights and shadows. this is pretty much the black sketch. the left hand looks like the brick line goes through it but its a shadow which i have to fix so it does'nt look like that. lots of stuff i'm not happy with but i will be with the finished product, just corrections corrections. i'll also be bringing out the ultra fine airbrush for the detail work. i'll be adding some drips inside the lettering and a white highlight along the inside also. some graffiti tags on the wall would be kool...
