Learn How to Airbrush Lightning & Clouds.

[@terryozbourne157]

I've said it elsewhere and I'll say it again; It doesn't matter if you have the most expensive, best engineered, airbrush in the world, you don't achieve these results without having the skills, and more importantly the soul, of an artist! Much respect! :)

[@pierreborjesson6584]

what you need is an airbrush and the will to learn, that's all you need

[@justingulick6747]

You also got to have, and this is a must... a good imagination and and open mind. What looks like a mistake to me maybe looks like a perfect piece to you.

[@johngallant4193]

The fact that you can retrace your lines with such precision is so impressive. Great work on this piece!

[@OkieRCguy]

It seems to me that doing scenes like this would be an excellent way for beginners to practice and sharpen their skills. Doing the clouds and lightning employ all the basic elements of airbrushing in a cohesive exercise.

[@AdamTerlaje]

Bro I could watch you all day.

[@threeriversleatherandfurwo8948]

Man what can I say you are good ,my hats off to you!! Thank you!!

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Thank you so much really appreciate the kind words and glad you enjoyed the vid 👍🏻

[@c0lutch]

Watching this guy makes me feel like I could just pick up an airbrush and follow along lol. It’s like I’m watching the Bob Ross of airbrushing.

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Ha ha 😂 thank you I am more than humbled to be compared to the legend …Bob Ross 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@justingulick6747]

Just painting some happy little clouds.. lmao

[@prestonbrice5425]

I’d just like to say, you do a very nice job with your videos! Very easy to see whats going on, really informative and not a bunch of BS goofing off. And your art work is also very nice. So thank you

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Thank you so much for your comment and kind words and glad you enjoy our content 👍🏻

[@angelinajoy3084]

Amazing work! Super precise hand! This is 20 years plus practice 😊❤

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Thank you so much 😀

[@alexangulo6856]

Great working. Teacher salute you from baja sur México

[@caseysghost20]

I've seen many lightning tutorials over the years. This has to be the most detailed and inspirational piece to date. Congratulations

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Thank you appreciate the kind words and glad you enjoyed the video 👍🏻

[@halatkinson5028]

Recently started airbrushing again after 30 years! No internet in those days lol, just books :-)

[@KevinVanzuyen]

Hey I'm new to the channel I love to airbrush I'm not very good yet lol but I love what u do thank u my name is Kevin by the way

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Awesome! Thank you!

[@David-nf7mf]

As always, another incredible video and artwork. Something I would really enjoy would be a short video, maybe 10 minutes or so, where you would show us some of your most favorite pieces of art from over the years and some stories about them. Maybe where your inspiration came from, where you were in your abilities (skill etc) at the time, what you like most about how it turned out etc. That would be both interesting and inspirational!

[@kevinhgreaves]

Very impressive job, you have just answered my question about the paint job on a Harley I own. Has exactly the same design and I wondered how it was done. Am I the only one who can see a skull hidden in there. Lovely work.

[@mattlaface271]

Amazing work perfect for my 67 amc ambassador I'm building, can't wait to do it this will look so amazing on the hood so thank full for the video!

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Thank you glad you enjoyed it and yes by all means give it a go, feel free to tag me on Instagram @airbrush_asylum so I can see your completed painting 😉👍🏻

[@justincase3230]

Aye man my airbrush showed up today, just a little portable banger to see if I like it, figure it'll be good for shading with a second colour if I upgrade. Thanks for the video's, quit drinking a couple weeks back and was looking for a distraction when you popped up.

[@dougmorissette459]

Awesome videos that you are producing. I bought a Metal Flake Super Brush in 1979 to do murals on my Chevy Van but there was only books on airbrushing available at that time. I have never used the airbrush but your videos have inspired me to start trying it. Thanks for the great videos.

[@Scottypowpow]

The first time I ever used an air brush was in high school I painted a monster energy logo and it looked so cool and felt so magical to use an air brush I was hooked and bought my own Iwata set and I haven’t really used it in years but I’d love to lean how to really use it and get good with it to make some masterpieces of my own

[@kevinventura546]

I’ve watched a few videos already just discovered you channel. I have to say you do amazing work, and are really helpful with the tips! I’m just getting into airbrush I’ve drawn with pencil, color pencils, and also learned to paint cars. This is something new to me I’m trying to learn to add to my skill set especially in the bodyshop area. Many thanks for the videos I need to get a fine detail airbrush since the one I have now is to cover big areas and not fine detail 😅

[@alantrail7662]

Beautiful work. I have a model 1/350 scale battleship. I wanted to try your storm. But with a twist....a tornado dropping down out of the clouds over the ocean as a background for my model. Have you ever done a tornado?

[@christianolen3002]

Bonjour superbe travail et c'est cool de nous indiquer les couleurs que vous utilisé je débute dans l'aérographe et c'est compliqué pour moi car je suis daltonien .

[@michaelrobinson9643]

I love doing weather / space work and enjoyed watching you work. Thanks :)

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Many thanks appreciate the comment and glad you found it helpful 👍🏻

[@macmasks]

This is just what I needed to see for a new job I have coming up. thanks!

[@PowerfulSlicer]

Brilliant as always, I’m off to have a go, thanks.

[@ty101020]

Thank you for the awesome tutorials! Definitely a huge help since I have gotten back into the art after 15 years since i sprayed last. Much appreciated dude!👍

[@jf6720]

Looks great! It even looked good in black and white!

[@robbrcnstuff4220]

Takes lots of practice, you make it look easy, I'm working on getting control of the trigger for now. 👍👍

[@mikedwn]

As a storm chaser and lightning researcher it's a pretty good example! More compact for the strokes here but like you said...it's all for learning how to do it and top job mate.

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Many thanks appreciate the feedback form someone who is passionate about storms . Glad you enjoyed the video all the best 👍🏻

[@spyuggy]

Absolutely amazing, the lightning is very realistic and 3D. It is has similarities to the day clouds, but then it all changed. Thank You for the tutorial.

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Thanks mate glad you liked this video as well as my other cloud tutorial 👌🏻👍🏻

[@stevepisula1352]

Just purchased my first airbrush this is very helpful 👍👍👍👍

[@neontv6605]

Love the candy storm looks fun.

[@ulfhethnar3687]

👏👏👏 very nice work. Shame I would never be able to paint anything like that. Not even close. 😩😩😩

[@AirbrushAsylum]

You can do it!

[@shineon7641]

OMG You are amazing. I need to, some how, change my perspective here, just not yet certain as to how I might go about that? I say this because as I watched you the entire time, while creating our Clouds and Lightening, I wasn't able to see it until we were almost 10 minutes into your video here? I believe that this perception will be critical to my progress within Airbrushing. Any hints or ideas that anyone would like to share with me? I will appreciate anything that anyone has to offer me! Thanks to all...

[@Tim201a]

Ive watched so many of your videos, I'm blown away by your control.. Great videos Thanks for sharing your abilities with us.

[@miguelraposo8779]

Hey your work is so beautiful. I've seen a few episodes and I'm just blown away with the details and everything. Really enjoy watching you airbrush art work

[@Bgdaddywarbucks]

[@dooley9621]

Nice work mate and thanks for showing us how it's done. You are a very talented artist.

[@lurchandpasta]

Very nice. Considering I'm yet to put paint into my airbrush, I'm a long way from producing stuff like this. Do you have a video that talks about when to use primers?

[@thewalkingmiracle8410]

This is awesome. I'm going to learn by you on here. I appreciate you sharing

[@angelortega7708]

Awesome job!!! Thank you for sharing!!!

[@MrJrocc09]

I can’t wait to save up to get my own airbrush I’m looking forward to learning thanks for the tip

[@AirbrushAsylum]

No probs glad you found my videos helpful 👍🏻

[@loganthesaint]

Got one at harbor freight for $10 that’s where I started

[@michaelwalters6954]

I’m always amazed how creative you are I’m captivated love watching your work

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Many thanks glad you enjoyed it and found it helpful 👍🏻

[@MaZEEZaM]

I also really appreciate that he doesn't use horrible background music, makes for a much more relaxing and better learning experience.

[@AirbrushAsylum]

MaZEEZaM thank you 🙏🏻 I thought by leaving out the music you can decide what to listen to at home whilst watching my tutorials 😉

[@TheZ4bmw]

Brilliant buddy thanks 😊

[@AirbrushAsylum]

My pleasure 😊

[@rolvane5608]

excellent video always amazing work! You've helped me alot with my own artwork as well! I would love to see a video on tattered wings for a grim reaper or something like that!

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Thank you glad you enjoyed the video and appreciate your comment 🙏🏻👌🏻🤘🏻

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Oh and great suggestion thank you 🤔🤘🏻

[@littlegirl-lc8lh]

so beautiful and so well done thank you truly War Lord!!!!!!!!

[@rotoclip3427]

just beautiful,thanks for time and posting.

[@antoniostefanile]

Thanks for your useful videos. A question: When does a wearing a mask is needed?

[@shaolin224]

I've noticed after giving the final highlights to the clouds, it made the portrait in whole look a little cartoonish? Do you think adding more grey might help it look realistic again?

[@andrewhenderson4462]

I've just started air brushing....as I've now got far to much spare time atm.. your art work is fantastic!!! I hope with enough practice I'd be half as good as you are! Keep up the good work.

[@albertsmit9741]

subscribed and have a lot of fun with your work

[@jrakachitown7916]

What kinda compressor are you using can you put that info up and the quick disconnect and connect fittings

[@AirbrushAsylum]

It’s a large conventional noisy compressor which I run in my studio in a semi sound proof box . You can see the setup and type of compressor by watching this video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/ipeTqHqFob-Ma6c thanks again for your comment 👍🏻

I don't know why but up until @11:30, it was perfect. I mean the outcome is still amazing but till then it was just picture perfect black & white image

Exceptionally stunning work, sir. Subbed about a dozen videos ago!

[@adamakins9748]

in the process of watching , great as always, at the 8 min mark it looks like a set of eyes peering down

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Lol many thanks glad you enjoyed the video 👍🏻🤘🏻

[@hendog3894]

Great work. Do you have a recommended entry level air brush?

[@AirbrushAsylum]

I love the Iwata HPCS eclipse the GSI Creos PS.770 or the Sparmax Max 3 is also a great option 👍🏻

[@hendog3894]

Thanks!

[@melvynmcgregor3375]

Wow turned out great

Thank you 🙏🏻 glad you enjoyed the video 👍🏻

[@guitardaddy1981]

Ty so much for these vids, new to canvas air brushing and doin this along. Ty for the lesson so much.

[@royalecrafts6252]

can you use iridescent paints on an airbrush?

[@85stangster]

Awesome vid, thanks for posting. Would love to see it cleared.

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Thanks glad you enjoyed it and yes I’ll try and feature it in a future video update 👌🏻

[@bradleyparrell9301]

Your work is so great . Love your videos. They help me lots as I am just getting into airbrushing . One thing I find hard is using white . I got the airbrush white paint and still find it hard to use . Do I need to reduce it by 30% for a could flow? I have 4 airbrushes and a compressor. I like to do liquid pours and use the airbrush to do the work after . Doing galaxys and weather but when the white doesn't work good makes it hard . Any suggestions?

[@SP.Family]

Another one I was waiting for!!😀👏 thank you love the vid!!

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Many thanks glad you liked it and I thought this would be a great follow up to my other cloud tutorial thanks again for your suggestion 🙏🏻👌🏻

[@SP.Family]

Thanks👍😁 love your work 😃 and you explain very well what you are doing , it looks amazing 👍😁

[@MrStormtroopa]

I just bought a airbrush have you got some vids for beginner please

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Take a look at this Playlist of mine it contains some helpful videos for a beginner : kzbin.info/aero/PLkd3s0ymmV0Nyy0USPWdzSsXq4enW-DIn

[@jeffwerner1291]

Can you get the same effects with a single stage. I have a peach H series with the 3 needls.

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Yes you could but it’ll be a lot more challenging 👍🏻

[@MichaelLloyd]

Very nice! I think I can see at least two faces/skulls in the artwork. Once small one in the middle and a larger one toward the bottom. :o) I'm learning to wait to the end before I form an opinion. Sometimes I think "oh no... that won't work" and by the time your done all I have is WOW

[@wamotogarage225]

Very good your videos. Thanks for explain and share you art!!!!! Greetings from Chile.

[@AirbrushAsylum]

No probs thanks for your comment and glad you found the video helpful 👍🏻

[@jf6720]

I noticed you don't have your cap on, is that to prevent drying problems?

[@lexusant64]

Do you do custom work? I have an rc bodyshell I want done in this but am based in uk

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Hi there yes, I do custom work but mainly Harley’s and obviously all the artwork for my KZbin channel, I am sure there are local artists who could help get in touch with pinstriping and Kustom graphics magazine they are based on the UK and should be able to point you in the right direction 👍🏻 www.pandkg.com

[@lexusant64]

Much appreciated, thankyou...

[@GMan269]

I can't find a transparent base by Wicked. But Createx makes it. Do you have a model number on the Wicked. Spraygunner doesn't know it. Thanks.

[@GMan269]

Disregard. AutoColors 4004? Eureka.

[@geowiththekicks5645]

Nice work man! gets me inspired to go try my own !

[@AJourneyToTheUnknown]

I like the video of this artwork but... I would not have blackened the clouds so much. I think it was spot on prior to the blackening. Then again if you truly think about it, Art is in the eyes of the artist. Thanks for the video though! Gave me positive ideas for the bookshelves I am painting for my dragons.

[@iftikharchughtai7644]

Wonderful performance excellent

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@JK-dj1zj]

A. S. I'd like to see you do a more photo realistic lightning & clouds. This is really good!

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Many thanks glad you enjoyed the video and yes, maybe a more photorealistic version in the future on some synthetic paper so that it can be achieved by using other paint manipulation techniques 👍🏻🙏🏻

[@JK-dj1zj]

@@AirbrushAsylum, I'd like that. :)

[@steffmontana7295]

how can you do such fine lines with the white ??? pressure ? reducer ? thank's

[@AirbrushAsylum]

I over thin my paint and reduce my air pressure , my settings for detail work is 18-20psi with a 30% paint mixed with 70% reducer as well as years of practice lol many thanks 🙏🏻

[@glennlee355]

One word badass!!!

[@johnminerd2889]

Metallica's ride the lightning kept playing in my head while watching this. Amazing job

[@AirbrushAsylum]

That’s awesome , great song I am happy that came into your head whilst watching 🤘🏻

[@Kevin-qr2lp]

Nice video! I wanted to ask about the MAC, the small screw valve under the cup near the tip of the airbrush. Can you control flow gradually or is it simply an air open close valve?

[@mikek4610]

Kevin air regulator only

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Thanks for your comment and as mentioned by Mike it is only to control the airflow, I do use it to allow for creating fine details ie..I screw the valve in so that only minimal pressure is coming out of the brush and I over thin the paint so that it flows through nicely even at a lower air setting. Remember that adjusting the air flow on the Mac is controlling the air within the front of the brush, it’s not the same as dropping the pressure on your compressor, lowering the pressure dramatically on your compressor would cause your brush to splatter. Hope that helps 👌🏻👍🏻

[@deepgravity]

You make it look easy dude! Would love to have one of my guitars airbrushed, and I’m in south east of Melbourne 🤔

[@redx7161]

I would 😁

[@theozman38]

WOW. That’s fantastic

[@sherriedevening4548]

There is a section of one cloud that looks like it has an eyeball looking out at us, wondering if it was an accident or did I miss it being intentionally added.

[@nccyr1]

Thank you for the teaching video. Question: What's the benefit of the black glove aside from keeping the paint from your skin?

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Thanks for your comment the glove is only to keep the surface clean as I like to clearcoat these panels once complete so therefore it prevents any contaminants getting onto the surface 👍🏻🙏🏻

[@rockafellaai]

Hey mate. I was planning to do this on a bmx frame. Could I clear powder coat over it after and bake or will it affect the paint?. Awesome vid by the way.

[@ramonorlandocapellanmoreta8918]

[@AirbrushAsylum]

[@wilsonsanchez8050]

Esta muy hermoso tu trabajo maestro.... pero ojalá pudiera entender tu idioma....jjj

[@lukestatooinebuyers]

What type of compressor did you use?

[@bkadventures8526]

I want to get into air brush painting do you have any tips?

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Practice basic training and master the double action first, ie keep air pressed down fully at all times and control the trigger in order to control the paint. Remember the 3 main airbrushing factors are speed : height : paintflow hope that helps 👍🏻

[@bkadventures8526]

Airbrush Asylum thank you 👍

[@BogDustForBreakfast]

What’s the chances of this video coming up . I flow coated them last week and are now sat in my office . Nice to see them getting painted!

[@AirbrushAsylum]

LOL...Thanks for clearing them up for me and glad you enjoyed watching it getting airbrushed . 🤘

How would this work on a canvas instead of what you used here?
