[@Syclone0044]

Video idea: purposely make most common errors in technique to illustrate what it looks like when it happens, and how to rectify it. Like getting too close to the surface, pressure too low, too high, paint not thin enough, paint too thin, etc. These are the real problems I constantly deal with and never seem to completely eliminate.

[@CrimsonFlagg]

I'm so glad that you're able to make your own airbrush with them. And it's really awesome that yours will come with 3 needle and nozzle sizes. With the way Gaahleri's .5 pushes a bunch of paint, their .7 should easily handle any urethane paint.

[@janvanrenselaar5998]

Here it is. My x-mas gift to myself. I did see the studioG video and was hoping it was the same but with your name on it. The legend of modelpainting and hobby needs has his own Airbrush. Glad to buy it from a person who put somuch time,efford and money in his video,s. And that 100K subscribers will come now even faster Robert.

[@50martinez]

will be picking up that co-op gun for sure once it goes up for sale.

[@rodneyleblanc9790]

I can't believe how watching your videos has helped me, thank you. They are totally awesome. Until I watched this one, I was planning on buying a trigger AB, couldn't decide. That was then, now I am going to wait and get more information on YOUR new AB, and will probably buy it. It really does look fantastic. Thank you for all the time you put into this hobby for us.

[@TheCombatartist]

Congratulations Robert, you’ve definitely earned this milestone! God bless you and your wife 🙏🏼👍🏻

[@lftysmit]

That 0.5 and 0.7 are gonna be able to push a lot of primer. Ordered the other Gaahleri airbrushes and they’ve worked great. Pondering on getting your specific airbrush too. Specifically for laying down primer.

[@PatrickKend]

I bought 6 different colors of the "new" Vallejo Air paints and i just airbrushed for my first time and im so amazed at how much nicer the paint job looks over spray can painting. Im so happy that its worked out so far. Im sure there will be issues here and there throughout my model "career" but right now i feel great. I also have more paints, a new airbrush and a new paint booth coming from my family for Christmas. Merry Christmas to everyone.

[@barbatosrex9473]

Welcome to the club my friend. Merry Christmas to you and your family

[@paulcolterman3087]

Paul from NB Canada, I cant WAIT for that new brush to show up!!!! Really looking forward to them hitting the Shelves

[@uncardedreviews9721]

Thank you for contributing this masterpiece to the Fandom 🎉 your efforts are greatly appreciated 💜

[@barbatosrex9473]

Thank you so much my friend

[@ClarenceObert]

Boy am I glad now that I didn't get the Gaahleri when Amazon had it on their flash sale. I'll definitely get this one though when it finally becomes available. I love my PS-290, but with the addition of a .28 and .7 nozzle ... the one may become my favorite. Thanks for the video.

[@barbatosrex9473]

Thank you my friend it should be available by Nov 20th. Plus I'll have a few extra options, a fan cap and the airbrush stands you see in many of my videos.

[@ClarenceObert]

I'm all for the fan cap ... that's the reason I bought the PS-290 for when I go large areas when I prime. Semi-tractor sides, large 1/48 scale A/C, and the larger Star Trek Ships. Looking forward to it. The grip looks great as well. Will it be available through you, gaahleri, or amazon? Thanks and have a great day.

[@joegkushner]

Thanks for the review. I'm a miniature painter so this is something in my field. Congrats on the new air brush. Looks good.

[@lmspadarojr]

Just picked up some OG Vallejo airs. Grabbed up the space colors. I have no complaints.

[@DanielGViola]

Really interesting and educational. Think I'm addicted to watching your videos. Thank you.

[@keithsquires4985]

Wow! Congrats Robert on what looks to be an amazing collaboration. I picked up a Gaahleri advanced airbrush on your recommendation and it is absolutely awesome. I have been thinking of getting an ace series airbrush but this swallow tail edition looks so cool. I will definitely be purchasing one of these if of coarse I am not lucky enough to get one in your giveaways. Lol Keep up your incredible work on Barbatos Rex which has truly become a stand out leader in the hobby. Cheers!

[@LarrysModelShop]

Nice looking paints. That's a fabulous looking airbrush. It seems that Gaahleri airbrushes have taken off big time!! Might have to get one. Thanks for the great review.

[@danielthomas3236]

That airbrush looks awesome.

[@lylebriggs923]

YAHOO your airbrush is ready congratulations 👍🏻👍🏻

[@bogglespc6012]

Congrats on the airbrush partnership, I saw they had partnered with Studio G also glad to see you got a partnership as well since your videos have helped the community so much.

[@stealthbomber2127]

As a long time subscriber, I have never seen you test House of Kolor paints. A clearcoat compatibility test for the HoK would be awesome.

[@ethancoatney727]

That's awesome news about your collab with Gaahleri! I'll definitely have to pick one up!

[@tombower450]

Robert, thanks for reviewing the new line of paints. I use acrylic paints a lot but I tried to get away from Vallejo because of several reasons. Now that you tested the new Game Air I will venture back into them. Congrats on your own airbrush! I really like that you'll have a 0.7 needle. Looking forward to your launch video. 👍

[@GUNPLAOFEL]

Really great full to show how to clean your airbrush, especially with the Gaahleri Airbrush. I'm gonna order the same type that you have. I never work with that type of airbrush pistol before but I really wanted to try. I have 3 cheap Fenga airbrushs pistol works fine and I got Iwatta HP CS great for the purchase works amazing, but still careful with cleaning. Thanks to you im gonna try this method. I watch almost any of your videos and you are really amazing its very interesting with your experiments and I learn a lot from it🙏

[@hegga_nm]

Congratulations on your signature line airbrush!! May this be just first of many to come! :)

[@aroncheek5092]

Great news on the new airbrush, I'm thinking of investing in a trigger type airbrush for the same reason, unfortunately my hands have suffered throughout the years of various manual labour,car body repairs and mechanics. Think I need a tanked compressor first 😂

[@PopArow4702]

Already have a set for order lol just going to wait. I have heard of a new airbrush I will be buying.

[@henryortega9203]

That’s fantastic news, Congratulations!

[@Gene_Davis9]

I like the way the game air goes on

[@allanlowe9346]

These paints look really great Robert. Like you I prefer to use lacquers but these lay down really even. Especially like the yellow depth of colour which I usually have trouble with. From the video the paint looks pretty thick and seemed to atomise better with a few drops of thinner. The Gaahleri 68 AB is sensational, having bought one on your recommendation and it is now the most used AB I have. So impressed by your collaboration with Gaahleri for the AB I'm sure it will be a huge seller. Thanks for all you do for us. Cheers mate

[@jeffjay2225]

I love the trigger airbrushes. so easy to use.

[@roberthenderson6081]

Looks like I'll be buying a trigger airbrush soon 😂

[@Ryotsu2112]

Congrats on the Gaahleri collaboration! I love my trigger airbrush from them. This one looks amazing.

[@Steve_8341]

Love all the Vallejo paints!

[@thiswaythatwaytrucking]

Thank you, thank you. I was lost, not knowing which way to go as far as picking out paints for air brushing I am just starting and there are so many out there

[@kimijonghighball9626]

Congratulations on your airbrush. Can’t wait for it to be available.

[@MelBellatrix]

Using hot water instead of cleaner is a nice little trick! Thx for sharing 🙂

[@SeEdLeSsLEE]

Cant wait for the airbrush!

[@darrellB.]

Congrats on the airbrush, I know I will have to pick one of those up when they are available. Thanks for another great test as well. Have a great evening.

[@Baleandor]

I'd love to see those yellows and flesh tone over red!

[@meyermom4999]

Dude...congrats on the airbrush! It looks like a great piece of kit, and you clearly spent a lot of time working on the design...good on you!

[@thehazmatguy480]

Congratulations on the airbrush!

[@Avalanche523]

Always learning, thank you. 😎

[@rmgthething]

Congratulations on your collaboration. i only wish you the best your future

[@barbatosrex9473]

Thank you so much!

[@arby796]

Your brush looks phenomenal. I am so unsure about switching over to a trigger style but that one may change my mind.

[@chloew925]

I can't wait to hear and see more on that new airbrush! I do eventually want to upgrade my very basic setup eventually and that airbrush looks like it can be a great upgrade! I love your content and I keep an eye out for new airbrush paint content to see if I can give the painting techniques a try. It's helped a ton! Thanks!

[@fatblob2017]

What a great looking airbrush! Can't wait to see it in action!

[@aroncheek5092]

I paint miniatures with model air and small parts of cars , I'm currently painting a catapillar engine yellow from a kenworth truck and was in two minds to brush or airbrush, I ended up using 2 thin coats by brush and thankfully it turned out ok

[@Bruces-Eclectic-World]

Congrats on the airbrush! I will be getting one... Love the paints! 👍 LLAP 🖖

[@glyphic1974]

Very cool, sir! I have been waiting to pull the trigger on a pistol grip style, and this seems like a good one to do it with. i cant wait till it goes on the market!

[@ippaku]

I’m going back over older videos that I missed while I was gone and to see this I am so happy for you. This is so amazing for the community and I’m just so grateful that I found all of you even though I paint like a monkey with four left thumbs That being said tax season has come and gone, so let’s see if I can find some money for this. Be well be you

[@Arrowsmith86]

Congratulations on the collab, looking forward to pick one up at the right time, and price 😉

[@modelcar1589]

You make it look so easy 😊👍🏿

[@barbatosrex9473]

I try

[@MatterusOD]

These paints look very nice. I really like my SMS and Mr Color for spraying but lately I've also been trying some Model Air, Model Color and Lifecolor. The initial misting layer over primer, as you say, is the trick to get good results. Also, I can just wear a dust mask at the booth. Wearing the whole solvent filter respirator etc can be tiring after a while, especially in the hot weather. I cut little circular pads from those EVA non-slip stick-on feet and stick them to my Airbrush top button which makes it more comfortable to use when spraying for longer periods. Congratulations on the Airbrush. It looks very nice, versatile and comfortable to use. I do like the trigger type. 🦘🦘🦘

[@TheGelgoogGuy]

Dear god man, I remember back in the day when it was just Vallejo and Model air...now there's ten dozen line variations. I'm so happy they finally listened to complaints and made a clear bottle! Serious talk, your videos have been a tremendous help to me. I've been painting miniatures for like 20 years and everything you've put out has been so practical and useful - thank you!

[@barbatosrex9473]

Thank you my friend

[@tonyalvarez486]

Congratulations!!! The airbrush looks awesome - model on!

[@shutterfish]

Cool with the airbrush. Congrats 🤙

[@hhaste]

Congrats on the airbrush! That looks really tempting.. I wasn't planning on buying a new brush but damn. I don't have a grip style.. or those needle sizes.

[@Groovy_elk]

I guess someone may have pointed it out already, but the colored seal can be used as a clue to know the paint family. Green for Game Air, red for Game Color, Orange for Game Xpress… it’s quite useful!

[@danzo5521]

exciting stuff for your airbrush and great test too

[@Bellgrowler]

I was going to get the StudioG swallowtail, but I'd rather wait for yours to release

[@barbatosrex9473]

Thank you my friend

[@Bellgrowler]

​​@@barbatosrex9473How did you get involved with Gaahleri? Just curious because of how much of a big deal StudioG has made about the whole thing making it sound like he designed the airbrush and so on.

[@CraiuRemusArmand]

Nice, congrats on the colab. Eagerly waiting to hear your thoughts on the new airbrush.

[@comeflywithme9801]

Hi! Very interested in you new airbrush. Looking forward to more details, price, etc.

[@dalemettee1147]

I like the fact that you go thru all the steps for applying these paint colors. Now, suppose that you need a gloss finish on these base colors? I've got a few cars will need a shiny result. Thanks.

[@barbatosrex9473]

All Vallejo paints have a flat finish. You will nned to put a Gloss Clear on top of them

[@andrej2321]

5:40 Barbatos Rex, the best Super Mega channel on KZbin. There is no spoon, and it is not the super mega spoon that bends.

[@DavidMarzola]

Great demo. Thank you

[@GoufinAround_]

I tried the new vallejo game color stuff for brush work and I wasn't a fan. Good to have a review of the new air version

[@nelsonolivierjr3994]

I love using these paints. I bought a bunch and sitting on my shelves the colors are great even for airbrushing. I do like that handle design. I got a grip handle brush it's by Master but the handle feels like it's a kid's gun handle you know the kind you buy a 5-year-old to 10-year-old child's handgun. It's so small I like big and beefy cause I can hold onto it much better. Looking forward to when they come out. I also like the 3 needles cause I can do different stuff with them and I'm into so many different things right now it's hard to keep up with everything also I got to keep that tips about the Red and Yellow paint. I like to save videos I like to remember where I hear something from to keep going over in my head when I am doing something so I save to a KZbin file under Models. I might break it down even further when I got time to so I separate stuff I need to buy and stuff for info and whatnot.

[@nelsonolivierjr3994]

You know after seeing this video and posting my comment last night, today on my feed for videos to check out I see that they have another spray gun from Gaaleri X but with StudioG that someone got in hand to make a review on. So does the company make certain deals with KZbinrs to get their fans to buy their guns to support their KZbinrs? Just odd to run across it right after seeing yours. The colors in the handles are different but what if there are 5 other guys does each get their own color handles. I hope they make plenty with your name on it that is all I can say lol.

[@devinrussell420]

Hey Robert;I think you should try airbrushing a 1/24 or a 1/25 car or truck body using the House Of Kolor,or the Lime Line custom automotive polyurethane laquer paint system to see what the results would look like.

[@barbatosrex9473]

Sounds like a great Idea 👍

[@stealthbomber2127]

I just scrolled down to see this, I said the exact same thing with a clearcoat compatibility test with it.

[@blodhemn413]

Those paints look nice. I'm looking forward to seeing your airbrush in action. Congratulations, Robert.

[@michealwheeler1504]

Thanks for the demo. I can see several colors I want to try. Two questions and a comment. Does your Swallowtail airbrush fit the Micro-Mark Vallejo Paint Feed Adapter, Item # 90833? It says it fits Grex Tritium Series Airbrushes, and other brands with M6 x .75 cup thread pattern. Question two - do those adapters fit the new Vallejo bottles. I guess the test is, do the new and old bottles use the same caps? My comment is, on the Vallejo website it says they don’t have metallic Game Air because the metallic Game Color are airbrush ready. Same for fluorescent. Thanks again for all the great content you give us, and the timing couldn’t be better, I was just about to buy a trigger airbrush. Waiting a couple weeks is no problem. Mike W

[@TheIcemanModdeler]

Been using mostly Vallejo, they’ve been working great once you learn the pros and cons. I would have liked if they decided to switch to a gel medium instead of a liquid medium to have a longer drying time and maybe the same consistency for all colors.

[@danzo5521]

are there any hobby paints that use a gel medium?

[@christopherheintz2634]

​​@@danzo5521scale75 and warcolours

[@TheIcemanModdeler]

@@danzo5521 Yes there are, I think Scale 75 uses medium and others, u can use flow improver, retarder or glaze medium to reduce drying time with Vallejo but acrylics will always dry super fast.

[@gidden2000]

Their paints rub off on me all the time.

[@TheIcemanModdeler]

@@gidden2000 Never had an issue with Vallejo, been using them for years, i do use Vallejo Mecha Varnish to protect the paint but's it good without it too.

[@RadtechCustoms175]

Congrats Rex! Thanks for the review. Since I started customizing I mostly use Vally-Jo paints, but I always have trouble getting the right ratio of paint/thinner. These will make it much easier.

[@Scale_18s]

amazing video as always :)

[@N17C1]

I came here for the review of yellow - thanks!

[@ValenciaJoe]

Cannot wait for your airbrush since you announced it earlier last week. Like that you use my local hobby shop… Burbank House of Hobbies. Where do you get the Ultimate Thinner? The staff at Burbank are not familiar with it.

[@barbatosrex9473]

I get it direct from the manufacturer Ultimate Modelimg Products or UMP

[@ValenciaJoe]

@@barbatosrex9473 thank you.

[@RobRobRob123]

Whoa! That yellow over pink was awesome, it made it quite intense. I will be definately be doing that with my current project😊 Awesome airbrush, I am happy for ya. Is it gonna be similiar to the Studio G collab airbrush?

[@barbatosrex9473]

Yes it's similar. I've been working with them since April on it. I believe Studio G will represent the Malaysia market and me the US

[@RobRobRob123]

Oh, ok cool I will be looking forward to the release of yours, the purple bit and black accents makes it a rather strikingly beautiful piece👌🏼

[@mikelewis6233]

Great video - well up to the usual high standard. I will wait patiently to see the new Swallow Tail airbrush. Will it be available across the pond in the UK?

[@xRaptorScreamx]

Don't you prime Gundams if you paint them? Cool airbrush, would this be available in EU?

[@titaniumhen]

Found your updated video - good stuff here. I hit the subscribe and like. Cool airbrush (Swallowtail) You have a new fan and subscriber. Henry from California USA

[@ivanupton6586]

so I have both my new as of yet unused iwata eclipse and my older pasche(sp) airbrush, and I want to run my primer through an airbrush I will be using either a vallejo grey primer or an A.Mig-2024 One shot grey primer and was wondering which airbrush I should use... I don't want to risk the eclipse needing cleaning to the extent of having to disassemble it...

[@MisterTingles]

i overwhelmingly work with regular brushes, and I've found the "Model Air" range to be quite a bit better for that application than the "Game Air" range, before this overhaul mind you, so I'm keen to try out the updated formulation. Hearing that there won't be any metallics has me baffled a bit, since the Game Air range was especially cruddy in that department, and the Model Air metallics are among the best on the market... odd decision to not tackle those in this new lineup. Congrats on the collab, the note is as beautiful as the Swallowtail itself.

[@ZeilLibertas]

Vallejo recommends the new formulation of the Game Color lineup for Metallics. They are even airbrush ready. So, take that for whatever it's worth.

[@MisterTingles]

@@ZeilLibertas ye, have yet to try the new metallics, the rest of the range seems predominantly matt/ultramatt. can't imagine the metallics would be, but then again they've done it before with the Mecha range (intentionally, of course)

[@chrisvanderwaal8502]

Looking forward to your brush. I need a good multi-purpose. HELP...wasn't sure where to reach out so...I have your polished alloy. It is evaporating through the dropper top. What can I add to replenish? Lacquer thinner? I'm going to switch jars too. Thanks!

[@Rzkbreaker]

I already have the red version aka StudioG Collab Edition. Justin says he worked with Gaahleri to make that Swallowtail. I'll get your blue version too. Oh, can you checkout Gaahleri waterfall spray booth at some point? thanks

[@barbatosrex9473]

Back in April they reach out to me and asked if I would like to work with them. I actually had no idea they were working with Studio G, I just found out that a few weeks ago. I asked them why they didn't tell me and they gave me a reason last night. The red version is because he lives oser to the company. They actually invited me to the factory and I hope to do that but right now my wife's broken leg takes precedent. So I figure his fans will buy his and my fans will buy mine. I also commissioned them to make a fan cap for mine and they've started work on that already. Jason told them he knows me and is willing to work together going forward. It's all good my friend, as long as we airbrush together

[@gaahleristudio]

The collaborative version of the airbrush between Gaahleri and Barbatosrex will come with unique accessories. Please stay tuned, and it will certainly not disappoint the vast fan base and viewers of Barbatosrex.

[@kevinkerlin5603]

Congrats

[@christopherlawson9775]

Would love to hear your opinions and recommendations between Vallejo game air and Army Painter warpaints air? They seem like the two main options for miniature painters, and both have triad colour sets - I'm not sure what to go for!!

[@greyowl9295]

thanx, seriously thanx

[@BenSilber]

[@mastervadgers3881]

Heya Rex, how's the Gaahleri spray gun going so far? Im still debating whether to go for this one or the Iwata HP-cs

[@olo398]

any differences between your AB and the StudioG ab? Have the 98 for a month now, nice brush, especially since i got it for like 60ish bux. Really right up there wiht my current collection of ab.

[@barbatosrex9473]

I believe the airbrushes are the same. I had no idea they were working with Studio G when I asked them if they're interested in designing an airbrush under my name. That was back in April.

[@andrej2321]

The coolest thing about today’s push to acrylics is, that they are proving many yesteryear airbrushes to be far superior to anything else available on the market today. Not just in their trigger response, but also their versatility, paint atomization, ease of use and cleaning. Be it the Badgers or Thayer and Chandlers, they have gotten it right from the start and are probably still best suited for todays’ modelers trying to transition away from lacquers or enamels.

[@thiswaythatwaytrucking]

When your new air brush comes out where will I be able to pick up one up

[@barbatosrex9473]

Directory from the manufacturer. They'll be free shipping and a discount. Hoping to be up for sale within 3 weeks

[@andrej2321]

2:00 old bottle is also 17ml vs 18ml. The old labels were however much better designed. 😂 I’m thinking they had to compromise and come up with crappy labels in order to move the old stock.

[@dragula2005]

i really want to try one of this neves use that style of trigger
