Is it possible to weather a graphite finish? Either with or without clear coat? I did not see an answer anywhere. Thanks and appreciate the testing and comparison videos!

Solid !? Y not hollow

This is great..i really need it. How can i have it??

I had this idea 10 years ago but abandoned it. Glad you got it going awesome

Yes, several strips stuck on with carpet tape.

Do you just put strips of sand paper across the spool ? Cheers

Awesome . How do you ensure that the fretboard thickness is even and equal? ... Maybe draw some lines with a pencil and sand until only a sliver of pencil mark remains in the middle of the fretboard ?

Thank you so much for breaking the airbrush down and putting it back together comprehensively... I've been avoiding my airbrush because I cleaned it, and I didn't feel like I put it back together 100% correctly. This gives me much more confidence to try again! And I think the idea of practicing filling in shapes is genius, I haven't seen that on other beginner friendly how-tos! So, thanks a bunch for this series. It's definitely taking the "arghhhh" out of airbrushing for me. 😅

great job! I bought the Mando helmet (black series). Now i make the armor. I hope you can help me. What base coat color under the poweder fits to the bought helmet?

This is outstanding work!!!

Random question but what do you have in that bottle by your tang nippers at the beginning of the video? I just like to know these things in case there’s some aspect of this stuff that I’m missing out on lol sorry for the weird question!

Very nice! What kind of laser you are using?

what is gloss clear? or is it just a clear coat? :) also I did see the other video and did you make 3 coats of gloss black in a row or sand between?

Looks great! Have you bought or made the grinding disc?

It seems the smoothing video linked in the description is not available anymore. Could you recommend a reosurce for this?

It's funny, that spraxmax is a German product and it's pretty cheap here in Germany. Thanks i already bought 3 cans

Once it is done, does the graphite come off when handled?

Nice

So fast

I love it

One size fits all let me guess Commiefornia slave harness

Sorry this is an old video but did you paint on the graphite? And do you think you can use it as a base metal for your mandalorian costume and then paint on top of that?

How long does this finish last? Does this finish rub off and continue to be messy?

I just have a quick question. When I apply the 2K gloss it turned to a steel color. Then when I applied more graphite powder and more 2K like a steel color what can I do to prevent this

Gonna try it thank you

Are you just rubbing the graphite directly on the surface? How does it adhere? Are you using a rag?

I love it❤❤ I always wanted to make one

what happens if you wash it with water? Does the graphite comes out anyhow? thx!

How did you get so much details in The Loki bracer? Is Some of it carved in?

I hope you realise that 8 years later people like me are still coming back and watching your video to learn cosplay lights! This was wonderfully inoffensive and easy to understand. Thank you ☺️☺️☺️

Ohhhhh Yeahhhh

Hooray for lasers!

Very clean! Looking beautiful!

Thank you so much for this! The particles dust from the EVA is what convinced me to use worbla instead, as I have two cats and I don’t have access to a special place where they can’t go.

Could worbla withstand airsoft ?

Is epsilon on EVA hard enough to whitstand airsoft ?

Does aqua glass clear coat come out n an aerosol ?

Do you recommend we clear coat the last finish ? And will that help The Grafite to not come off ?

I’m getting ready to either use powder graphite on my Mandalorian armor My question is does this stuff come off ? I hope not lol

That’s cool

Frikin' lasers!

Would a commission request be reasonable and good to thee? I have one in mind, the heavy gold blade sword

This is awesome. We need more people doing the Kenner Boba fett.

Any chance to learn how to do it?

can you test or have you tested a black gloss coat with 2x or 2k clear coat and then graphite rub?

sorry eh, but show the passage where cover the hole of the helmet ,smart

I love videos like this. It shows just how much work goes into even the tiniest parts and details.

I heard there are issues that pop up over time with clear coat over the graphite powder. Like it comes up or comes apart etc.. this video is 3 years old, do you know how any of these held up over time?

Why not just make a bunch of 1/2 inch fret markers so you don’t have to cut with the multi tool

I know its an old video but @Coregeek do you remember having problems with the graphite powder lifting off during application of the clear coat? I tried clear coating with 2k and the graphite looked to pool up into the clearcoat...was kind of a cool effect if i wasn't specifically trying to keep it reflective...Wondering if i didn't rub off enough of the graphite after or what prep i should have done after powder before clearcoat.
