Death Knight mask progress. I have several different versions of different thicknesses. The "wipe back" method didn't work very well on my thickest one (as evidenced by the last pic) which was the one I was trying on in the first pic, but it worked very well on the second (as you can see in the second pic).
Owning and using an airbrush confirms 2 truths about airbrushes: 1) using an airbrush is 10% painting and 90% disassembling and cleaning it to try to find out why it's not painting. 2) airbrushes were created by god as a punishment for mankind's hubris.
"Using latex paint in an airbrush" sounds like an idiom for "doing something that won't work and will be difficult and annoying the whole time it doesn't work" and yet here I am.

Faced with one final test before his admission to the criminal organization, gang initiate Hector Gunnerson was reportedly forced to peacefully deescalate a conflict Thursday to prove that he was not a cop. “I know Big Mike vouched for you, but before you can run with the Riverside Boys, we need to make sure you’re not an undercover,” said gang leader Butch ‘Mad Dog’ Tucker, who nodded for one of his men to start a verbal altercation with another gang member so that Gunnerson could either help amicably resolve the dispute or violently escalate it, depending on his instincts.
