One big tip I learnt early on is always push the trigger for air with the brush pointing away from your mini just in case to get a tiny bit of splatter

Thank you for the video with a nice Peter McKinnon intro touch. Just considering going into airbrushing, starting with priming and this has been very helpful

Owning a good ultrasonic cleaner isn’t a bad ideal nether when it come to cleaning a air brush, they can really get into places a vibrate paints lose from your air brush inside that you can’t reach .

Just got a cordless one called the autolock airbrush and it's dual action gravity fed, this guide is really gonna help with the cleaning and maintenance, the machine allows me to use whatever airbrush I want as long as I get the right attachments, would like to see your opinions on a cordless one

[yesmilord]

Great explanation. Was always curious about the details of airbrushing. Definitely looks much more approachable after seeing this

Very nice explanations short and informative, my mistake with airbrush was Breaking the nozzle in assembly after cleaning, I just tied it too much...

[darthballz]

Production values off the charts! Love it! Great info too.

[Impendingdestroyer]

Great video! And well timed! I have been considering an airbrush and this really helped me decide.

[skipgiblets]

Excellent insights, and really good video production.

Great video my friend :) My first compressor was a big garage one that would shake the house xD Glad I upgraded

I think my biggest problem is proper maintenance. I've ruined two cheap airbrushes, learned a lot from them but in the end decided to go with spray cans because it seemed to me that for every 1 hour of airbrushing I spent 2 hours maintaining it and cleaning it and trying to figure out what the hell is wrong with the damn thing now haha. Contemplating trying it again though.

I’m thinking about just using an airbrush for background larger areas of the canvas.And I may do some t shirt art.What would be the best type of airbrush for that?

[saultricoche]

@Trident & True Hobbies, does the same principles can be performed using a Airbrush Kit, Titoe Portable Handheld Mini Airbrush Compressor ?

[garydennis]

I think I need to take the plunge into trying airbrushing. I am that person who finds it daunting 😂

[petemalysewich]

am I ever going to get that rematch vs your Thousand Sons? 😂

[jacegarth]

My problem is that it keeps clogging. Using Vallejo Model Air paints, so it should be diluted enough. But even with adding additional thinner, it's still clogging a lot. So frustrating....

It sounds great, it looks great, as always. But can you show us, how to paint large muscles ( for bullgors, for examample ) without an airbrush, in the future?
And also, hello from Russia 🇷🇺 :)
