How to Airbrush a Portrait in Color

This is my second airbrush portrait project and first using color. I am still impressed by how this class guided me through the process, and even though the portrait is not perfect, I am happy with how far I got. I used my Badger Patriot airbrush with ink and high flow acrylics. For details, I used brushes and acrylic paint. My plan is to continue adding to it. The wood panel is a recycled abstract painting 24x 24 inches that I didn't know what to do with.

This is a 16x20 inch portrait created using airbrush, acrylic, and ink on a panel.
