Very good job I love all the details you put in there and the way you explain everything was great. I started airbrushing about 1970 and have always enjoyed doing it. But I have trouble trying to teach other people how I can’t seem to be able to explain how but with the way you explain it most anybody should be able to follow you. EXCELLENT JOB KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK I can not tell you how much I enjoyed this.

[@HDStencils]

Great to hear!

[@bubba6richards729]

Why am I only seeing your channel now? Great job. Binge watching time 😎🔥

[@HDStencils]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@dennyps1]

Some really great tips and pointers, thank you!

[@HDStencils]

Glad it was helpful!

30:37 amazing result, great job man

[@josephmilnes8957]

I'm just beginning airbrushing unfortunately. This is something I aspire to do. I did a few pairs of custom sneakers, and used a similar technique to do the philadelphia skyline. Your work is amazing!

[@HDStencils]

You can do it!

[@camanomike]

Excellent commentary. I can apply some of those techniques to all of my artworks.

[@rezpiper]

Most amazing piece of art I have ever seen!

[@misiknuo]

Meh,im airbrush artist for 20 years,i do not think this guy is even painter..his ligths are totally out and stiff,i watched other his clips he is heavy stencile reliant..i do not think he know how to draw actually..but props for trying..looking great for a amateur which can not draw.

[@HDStencils]

in my field I don't have to draw since I have dozens of commissions to do. In the beginning I used to draw from scratch but now I cannot afford to take to long to finish work to meet multiple deadlines! In this channel is to demostrate how to get the most of the airbrush stencils

[@jerrydesilva7359]

I really like it, not everything had hard lines, so, it doesn't look pasted on. Gives the illusion it's moving.

[@kenney8656]

You are truly skilled in your craft. I enjoyed this video tremendously. Thank you!

[@frankb5648]

Beauuuutiful work!!!! Did you clear coat the piece after the white base so that you could do that erasing?

[@HDStencils]

No, usually I do. On this one I just let the base dry

Great work Gerardo!!!

[@HDStencils]

Thank you buddy!!!

[@zerrarigto]

Really helpful video and beautiful work. Can you share the type of black paint you use and how to mix (w/clear, etc.)to achieve translucent qualities for air brushing?

[@HDStencils]

I use illustration colors you can find them here amzn.to/2zYNxVy To mix the transparent color you want to use black + transparent base + reducer. mix as much trans base to weakend the color

[@troygroff4512]

Awesome art! I'm using Createx products and I would like to know what brand of degreaser do you use before sealing the guitar with a primer coat and then stain before you do a clear coat? Thanks!

[@HDStencils]

late reply, hope it still helps. On createx I use ACME Finish 1 FT200 GALFT200. I buy it from Sherwin Williams. I found that a lot of degreasers will mess up creates paints, this one doesn't. You can even use it over createx illustrations

[@eross21]

this is so cool! what kind of airbrush are you using? and what kind of ink are you using on that pen?

[@HDStencils]

all the paint illustration colors, and Iwata

[@jershaus]

Awesome job man. Good job!

[@Zigr72]

Fantastic! Thanks ever so much for sharing your skills.

[@troygroff4512]

Nice work! What airbrush did you use for the detail? Which custom micron? And are you using the same black on the dip pen as in the airbrush? Thanks!

[@HDStencils]

The fine detail airbrush I use is the side feed version of this one amzn.to/3l63HnR I also use this eclipse but now there's a new one.amzn.to/3M9nBdx My set up is usually one micron and one eclipse. One with full black another one with transparent black for subtle transitions hope that helps

[@dunawayguitars7494]

This is gorgeous. I would like to create a stencil but I don't want to pay high prices. Is it possible to create these with my own diode laser?

[@HDStencils]

thank you! those are only made by hdstencils.com

Awesome 👏

Could U make a video about how you do the image transfer? How U created the image transfer?

[@HDStencils]

Those stencils are made by www.hdstencils.com I didn't make it at by myself.

[@andyfewster456]

Great work,someone has asked me to do something like this,now I have an idea of where to start,roughly how long did this painting take you

[@HDStencils]

Thank you! Lots of time is not accounted for when doing commissions. Painting time was about 10 hours I think

[@caseyfuller9246]

Very nice! What kind of airbrush gun do you use?

[@HDStencils]

iwata microns are my only go to airbrushes for guitars and motorcycle work....if I was doing bigger paintings like murals I'd go with eclipses

[@av8tore71]

Very nice Sir, thanks for sharing. How did you mix your paint and what size airbrush did you use?

[@HDStencils]

just black paint. one small mix 80%black + 20% reducer. I use that for the darker fast covering mix. Second mix is abount 60% transparent base + 20% black + 20% reducer. This mixture is for soft areas and to build texture also.

[@av8tore71]

@@HDStencils thank you so very much, I'm new at this and have been wondering if it's just like painting a car but on a much smaller scale. Again thank you and be safe!!

[@troygroff4512]

What percentage or drop mount did you do to reduce the black to make it transparent? Thanks!

[@HDStencils]

long time ago so don't remember but usually I go 60-90% transparent base

[@grovilite4220]

Hey man what were the stencils you used in your video to get the outline and can they all be purchased online

[@HDStencils]

You can get stencils like this one at www.hdstencil.com just go to the custom HD Stencils page and you’ll get a stencil from the picture that you want

[@johndulaney5520]

I know this is an old video but I'm wondering if you could tell me where you found this pic. Exactly what I'm trying to do. I want this on the back of my guitar. Thx

[@HDStencils]

I got this picture from the customer, unfortunately, I don't have that picture. You can try googling black and white locomotive photography. There are many similar photos online. Good luck with your project

[@AirPavel]

super ;)

[@willnoeth3543]

Man that is bad bro I just got my first airbrush set and playing with lines and dots and a little shading I wish to have a quarter of your talent what kind of airbrush do you use great video

[@HDStencils]

I used two iwata microns here are the llinks where you can buy them or read their spects amzn.to/2NQRDY8 amzn.to/2ZQPNZH the gravity feed that I use is no longer sold anywhere but appart from the cup its the same as the second link

Do you have a video or something on how you did that ghost stencil?

[@HDStencils]

hdstencils.com sells them made from your own picture

[@MrNugs67]

The dip pen, is that the name or is it a fountain pen? Where can we find them? You should of named it in the section that says, tools used... Awesome job by the way. I subscribed so I can get to see the new videos you make... Thanks for sharing..

[@HDStencils]

Blackgold67 that dip pen is made by speedball. The fountain pen already has its ink. That’s for pointing it out, it’ll get added to the description! They sell them on art stores and also on amazon. Most come in a set with multiple nibs. Good luck 👍🏼

Yes, it was made from the picture the customer provided. Custom hd size 4

[@ARABLTHECIRCLE]

No entendi como se transfirio la imagen

[@HDStencils]

En el minuto 3:32 empece usando un HD personalizado para transferir el diseno en una mano lijera para despues seguir pintando regularmente. Este video no lo pude hacer en espanol pero se trata de usar estas plantillas pra transferir el "mapa" de lo que uno va a pintar. Por ejemplo si yo me ubiera puesto a hacer los trasos con lapiz me hubiera costado varias horas transferir la imagen para poder empezar a aerografiar a comparasion a la plantilla HD que solo me costo como 30 segundos para "mappear" la imagen. Gracias por tu pregunta amigo, espero te haga mas sentido. Feliz Dia

[@kainergeri]

speed on 1.25 .. thank me later

[@johnniepassmore5341]

Can you use the airbrush pain with that pen,. And we're can them pens be purchased please

[@HDStencils]

Hi Johnnie, you can get the right dip pen in this link here amzn.to/2zR5rd5 there are other ones available too, but you want to buy the drawing nibs not the calligraphy! As far as paint goes, I use illustration colors available here amzn.to/2zWFYyK. I prefer this brand but you can use any other type of airbrush paint as long as you use reducer to reduce it enough to work. Good luck with your painting!

[@johnniepassmore5341]

Is the paint reduced for the pen or is it straight from the bottle... I still think u should do a monochromatic portrait. I keep hinting in your vids.. Thank u

[@HDStencils]

Johnnie Passmore yes I remember about it lol.. Definitely will, been super busy with jobs but I got some more videos to edit. Some colors need reduction, treat it like reducing for airbrush. Reduce until it works!
