howdy.
I'm not the best around with an airbrush but I've been learning. Here is a practice bit I did today with my new Badger Renegade Velocity.
I was trying to paint with in the lines of the road markers. I still have some work figureing out thinning and air pressures with the new airbrush but so far not so bad.. the paint is Humbrol Enamel.
the map is on a hotel advertisment from a rest stop.. these are nice for testing out your airbrush so next time your on a trip pick a few handfuls up... lol

Delbert, the whole secret to airbrushing is practice, practice and practice. You'll find that various paints just may require different thinning ratios, and air pressures also.
You did great on the map, those little shields look pretty good.

you can also use paper as a template so you dont over shoot and it gives a straight line. if you want a more diffused line slightly lift the paper off of what ever you are painting
