Helmet Painting Training Course - Piers Dowell (25th - 27th June 2024)

The Airbrush Company presents a three-day course covering all you need to know about Helmet Painting, taught by top UK artist and Custom Painter, Piers Dowell.

On this three-day intensive class you will learn grounding in all aspects of helmet painting from technical to business and organisation. Students will leave with a painted helmet to take away.

Please note: Due to the drying/curing time, the shells will not have the final clear coating they require. Piers has agreed to take each shell back to his working facility to apply clear coat and return back to the student. This is inclusive of course cost but postage is extra.
