I swear I am CURSED
At least my photo is right side up, now. Hut with Drybrushed roofI’d swear to God if I weren’t an athiest I must be cursed. Every little thing I attempt to do blows up in my face at every little chance it gets.
I get an Iwata airbrush, it breaks, several times. I have to buy replacement nozzles several times, once because the nozzle I just bought, BROKE when I was screwing it on. And when the airbrush somehow IS working properly, then the COMPRESSOR goes bust. So then I buy a new compressor, with an airbrush, said airbrush is NOT gravity fed. The paint pot not only connects to the airbrush from below, it doesn’t even have a lid to stop spillage! Who designs an airbrush like this?
When I finally make some progress in priming the hut, I run out of primer. And the local arts and crafts store doesn’t have any, or apparently ANYTHING relating to airbrushes anymore. So I drive 30 minutes to a giant hobby store that’s only accessed through a series of left turns on one way roads (all swarming with rushing traffic) go inside and get a jar of primer and golden brown paint. The total is a little $20 Canadian, unfortunately I don’t find out until I get to the cashier… I currently only have $10 in my account.
And people wonder why I’m always grumpy. Anyway, here’s the hut, completely primed and with a roof drybrushed in that golden brown paint.
