Dude, cartoon spray paint! 🎉 That would be sick! 🙌🏽

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

😉👍

[@AnnParker-Griffiths]

I love the smoke effect.

[@Nelswifi]

😲 I like the smoke effect the best… all very cool.

[@tracybowling1156]

I appreciate how you teach us easy ways to potentially make excellent art! I love spray paint, and I love this series!

[@Kreepykrafts]

So cool!!! Thank you Duncan for all you do! ❤

[@neeshia98]

Cartoon spray paint plz!

[@thepain321]

Like the lace overlay technique. And various stamping techniques. Even using a rag on wet paint. Or paint on rag on dry paint.

[@clarkey661]

I find the cling wrap method with a copper or brass doubles as a faux rust technique as well. Sweet video.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

cool - sounds like a pretty rust

[@clarkey661]

@@DuncanCustomAirbrush A cool video idea is get some trophies, cups, chalices, platters, statues whatever from a thrift store, base coat metalic gold, rust effect over the top, grit with coarse sand and make some stuff look like recovered sunken treasure. I haven't seen anyone do that yet. Just throwing that out there. Love your vids.

[@kyleperon4824]

I mean this in the best way possible. Did anyone ever tell you that you sound and have the personality of Bob Ross? I say that as I am an artist and designer and grew up watching Bob Ross. He just mesmerized me and had such a calm demeanor. Keep up the great work!

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

lol thanks - I hear that all the time!👨‍🦱

[@traceygamwell8792]

Just watched this one Duncan. Flipping great work !! Love it. xx.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Thank you so much!!!

[@mikenichol4040]

Absolutely amazing. Loving your videos bud. I'm from Canada and honestly that looked like a take on something Canadian.

[@JuniorDesignsArt]

love that concrete look!

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Thanks bro

[@user-vp4qq4it7i]

yes indeed! I have always used a tiki torch for smoke effects. It's amazing.

[@shawnkuhn1700]

Excellent video bro. Thanks for the techniques. Have you seen the hammered metal paints. They look sick. Was wondering if you had a trick for that in different colors.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Maybe just overlay a transparent paint?

[@bazilwreckerloughead]

You should do the cartoon spray paint thing, it'd be sweet. I really like that stone look the best, I GOTTA try that!

[@shadyvito]

Subscribed! I paint fishing lures and use techniques that I used to faux finish houses a lot. I never tried the flame trick but I definitely am now.

[@Benjamin_Reese]

All of them!! I ❤ them all

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

100%!

[@phillipchristy7792]

That looks siiiccckk - I will have to try these techniques. I would love to see the cartoon spray painting. The helmet looks like a Lacrosse helmet 🤷

[@prptink]

Amazing 🤩 you’re super talented 👏🏽 stay blessed 🥰

[@Lori4luck]

Love the smoke idea!! Great video

[@theresacraig3162]

Neat video…. Love the smoke & faux stone! I say ooops and oh crap a lot when I’m creating too😆

[@Incubus_]

Thats definitely a lacrosse helm. Been so long since I had one of those 😂 great videos! Keep them coming!!

[@SAPeru7064]

love this guy

[@atomicwarlord1976]

Your videos have inspired me to buy an airbrush and give it a go. I've given up on being creative. This channel has brought it back. Thanks

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Heck yeah! That's what I like to hear!

[@wanzafairchild6337]

Love that smoke effect. Your videos are so informative and I enjoy your comedic delivery. Always enjoy your content and I share it with my fellow paint artists.

[@SamTheBattleshipp]

My favorite spray paint technique is . . . Well, I actually haven't tried any yet so I would say your drop shadow technique in this video is one of my favorites. To be funny I'd say my favorite spray paint technique is where I turn an item and some money into a cool painted product by giving it to someone else to do. 😁 Very cool design and helmet!

[@CraftDaddyInc]

Love it! Both videos ya learn different techniques, both are favs!! Great humor great art!

[@acff65]

It would be epic to see cartoon paint effects on a 2010-2016 MINI Cooper Countryman, Classic VW bus or beetle. To me, these types of vehicles present an ideal canvas to accommodate a plethora of design options, including adding painted panels. Do you use design software when planning a commissioned paint job for a vehicle? I thoroughly appreciate all the painting tips and tricks you provide.

[@Altitude_Tumblers]

Awesome Taylor! You are so inspiring ❤️!

[@theintake8961]

The flame technique is so cool!😎👍

[@jaderene]

This one turned out really awesome!!!!! I absolutely would love to see the cartoon spray painting!!! 🤯❤️🙏🏽

[@theintake8961]

The flames are so cool! 😎👍

[@tfranke6011]

I like your techniques.

[@brianmik5624]

Been liking the vids! I mostly paint RC hard bodies. Mostly a mix of spray paint and airbrush. I like the Rustoleum Universal Titanium Silver a lot for the size of the flake and shine it gives. This includes any work you do on top of it like candlies and clears. Thanks for posting the cool techniques

[@brianmik5624]

Candies. Not sure what Candlies would be…. Tootsie rolls? Hardly candy 😂

[@MonsterHobbiesModelCarGarage]

In the model building world, people use that "rock salt" method for making their model kits look rusty. First they paint the entire body with a red rust looking primer, then they put that rock salt on the model. After that, they paint a nice, glossy paint color over the top and let that dry. Then they remove the salt and it looks like rust is coming up through paint chips on the car or tank body. Same technique, but used to make it look old and rusty. - Might be a fun idea for you for painting on a plastic helmet...you know, like a "Rusty Corvette"! LOL!

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Ah yeah cool, I have seen that before

[@MonsterHobbiesModelCarGarage]

@@DuncanCustomAirbrush I haven't tried it on a kit yet. I like my cars nice and shiny...however I do have an old, worn out metal tool box that I am keeping in it's rusted state so that when I do build a weathered car, I can copy what I see on the tool box onto the model.

[@Pixel_Heart]

I mistakenly was chugging water when the grinch edit came on, “look at that hack job!”🤣😂🤣🤣 I seriously choked on my water over that hahaha🤣 Great video Duncan!!!🔥💦😂 Always learning so much from watching!!❤️

[@rick74304]

It would be helpful if you mentioned stuff like air pressure, needle size, or airbrush settings when painting drop shadows or fogging in small areas of color. Been teaching myself how to airbrush with dollar store acrylics, and learned I need flow improver to stop my needle drying out, but don’t know how low to drop pressures or needle size.

[@TheLidlClan]

Yes to the cartoon spray paint, I have a moped that I have waiting for something like that.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

If you live close to Upstate South Carolina, message me through my website or on Instagram.

[@KevinSmith-ky9iz]

One trick I have been using for years is a Splatter technique. I remove the Nozzle of the spray can tip and that throws a Random pattern better then anything else I have tried. The Rust Oleum tips are the easiest to remove and with other brands I put a Tinny drill bit into the spray nozzle by hand and crank it in till it holds then pull out the nozzle. Try it out it really is Fun…

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

I will definitely have to look into trying that!

[@shovelchop81bikeralex52]

Just started the video, looks like a lacrosse helmet you guys in the States use, over there it's seen as a manly sport but in the UK only girls have traditionally played it in expensive public (which are actually private, everything is backwards here lol) schools, so is hocky ironically, not sure what the Canadians make of that. I'm looking forward to your new lessons!

[@sekaf4125]

Love your style. I have a question. I live in Alaska and painted my carbon fiber on my motorcycle with a hint of violet pearl and 3 coats clear over the top. Looks normal until sun or hard angle you see the violet. It turn out really well, get loads of compliments . well that was painted 23 years ago. In riding now in washington and lo and behold they made carbon fiber radiator covers for my bike! I bought them. 12"x1 1/2". so my question can I duplicate this using rattle cans in any way? I don't have access to my equipment. Thoughts?

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Yeah I did it with spray cans in a previous video - use this link to watch a clip of it: kzbin.infoUgkxfolxj6KXKl5fE9DxqvOSDbyHqofhVBgq?si=BjLz3hNFtIE3sWmD I think House Of Kolor even has a line of spray paints - even Pearls and Kandies (I shop Coast Airbrush, they are super helpful). You will definitely still want to clear coat it afterwards.

[@zenos.5315]

It’s a lacrosse helmet. I played Lacrosse in college. Thanks

[@smashtoad]

Sick.

[@umboccioni]

Hey man. I’m new to your channel and love it, been binge watching it recently. Will you have your airbrush set back in stock anytime soon and do you ship to UK. Much love. Keep it up, your awesome.

[@kingstatik4387]

Can you spray paint acrylic???? I know that sometimes spray paint can easily melt plastic....but I was curious because I wanted to try something . But worried if it would ruin the acrylic sheet ?

[@andrebartels1690]

I come from RC cars, I'd love to see some RC bodies painted. There are some that have enough canvas to paint on, like the tamiya lunchbox or the tamiya sand scorcher (blitzer beetle, monster beetle). The challenge is that they have 3D surfaces, but you can't overload them.

[@atomicwarlord1976]

Have you tried the Trash Polka designs? That would be cool too.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

I will have to look up and see what that is

[@kr2513]

Try the urea fertilizer trick. I’m one Amazon order away from trying it myself.

[@kylehood1657]

In scale modelling we have a technique we call "Hairspray Chipping." Start with the base colour you want the chips to be, spray on a couple coats of hairspray, and finish with your final colour, letting each layer just dry. Saturate the area with water and attack it with a stiff paintbrush, toothbrush, tooth pick, whatever tool you have at hand. The water dissolves the hairspray, removing the paint in a random pattern. Not sure how well it will work on a helmet, but its used often on models and miniatures for simulating chipped or worn paint.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

does it come out really rough textured?

[@maryputhoff3490]

I wonder. Would the salt effect (affect?) work if a course sand was used?

[@knockkers]

I do a lot of RC Car body painting and would love to see how you would apply some of these techniques. Seeing as you'd have to paint in reverse so to speak, because you paint the inside of the body not the outside.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

I have painted quite a few rc bodies, mostly those trraxmax trucks, some have been pretty elaborate. Unfortunately I only have 2 videos on my SHORTS tab but nothing really involved with the graphics

[@knockkers]

@@DuncanCustomAirbrush Oh wow that's awesome, thanks for letting me know. I just found your channel and really loving the content. Thanks!

try pendulum painting using spraypaint and a galaxy in the middle.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

I have actually thought about that - a way to do pendulum painted different than everyone else has

[@mariamarcelo702]

@@DuncanCustomAirbrush cool, I'll be looking out for your video. I've tried it 7 yrs ago with liquid soap and spray paint.

Have you sprayed thru a metal screen before. ? There is so many sizes of screen.

[@Pavelek88]

Yup, I know this is a fun project to explore new things... but for anyone thinking seriously about painting your helmet, not to mention doing it for a customer... take out all the interiors or MASK THE HOLES AND VENTS. Solvents melt the foam inside

[@JoshWalshMusic]

Duncan please don't blow out a tiki torch. A friend of ours had one blow up in his face from that. Always smother them. You can send oxygen into the torch and BOOM. and then where would we get our airbrush tutorials?

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

holy geez, that's terrible!

[@RamDragon32]

I've been looking at candy effects with spray paint, but the only thing I've found so far is Dupli-Color Metallic Effects, which is kinda on the expensive side for spray-paints. I'm playing with laying color over silver with glitter added while wet to get metallic flake effect, and it's... Well, it works but doesn't finish with a flat surface. I can clear it with high-body automotive clear, but, again, not the rattle-can solution I've been looking for. (and it eats my airbrushes. Gonna have ta get a new expensive one if I proceed with that.) So far, I've use Ultra-Fine White and Rainbow glitter, and both look good. Anything grainer than Ultra Fine is nearly impossible to clear without leaving voids. Ultimately, I wanna fix the crappy paint on my crappy car so I might as well go all in with paint effects. I've used the water drop effect you showed last time on my computer case and it looks great. Any insight on rattle-can solutions for metal flake look and candy would be epic.

[@DuncanCustomAirbrush]

Have you ever heard of the "tack-it method" like I did in this video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWqTZ62Go6ugo9E Or this method I did with Mica Powders: kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y2WtiZWAabath6M

[@RamDragon32]

@@DuncanCustomAirbrush Actually, I've been making dice for about a year (you know, dreaming about business and realizing that scaling that crap would require already being successful at higher volumes. Catch 22 sorta thing) so I have plenty a resin. That would work perfectly for smoothening over the glitter, wonder why I never thought of that. I'm not actually having too much issue with gettin tha glitter ta stick, it sticks great ta the paint directly on a flat surface. I'll try that tack-it when I do tumblers later this year. But for a candy effect over it, I'm stuck right now either buyin each color at $20 a can for the Dupli-Color or thinin out Testors. I could use transparent airbrush paint but it really doesn't do the candy look justice. I have an automotive candy color kit I'll be playing with, but that was over $100 just for the starter kit. It's a quart of clear and candy dyes so plenty ta play with, just expensive.

[@RamDragon32]

@@DuncanCustomAirbrush I tried it with red tinted resin, and it looks so good. Exactly the candy effect I was looking for, but I was shy on the color so it's just a bit light. But, it smoothed out the glitter and looks exactly like candy paint at this point! Next, I'm going to try a thinner clear coat of resin, do the airbrush techniques, then the candy tint layer. I'm making some low-rider inspired coasters.
