The distance your airbrush is from the surface determinds results.

DISTANCE DETERMINES RESULTS

Now let's look at how the distance you are away from the surface you are spraying paint onto comes into play. If you have ever played with spray can's of paint you know that the further you are from the surface the larger an area you cover and the paint pattern is very fuzzy or defused.

Move closer with the spray can to the surface and you will notice the paint covers a smaller area and becomes more defined. The same holds true with an airbrush.

In the top picture below my airbrush is several inches away from the paper: notice how large the dot is I sprayed. In the lower of the two pictures my airbrush is half an inch or less from the paper; notice how small the dot is I sprayed.

Summary: The further you are from the surface the paint you spray thru your airbrush will cover a larger area and not be well defined. The closer you are with your airbrush to your painting surface the smaller an area you will cover and the pattern will be more defined.

It's just paint, relax have fun!!!
