Hobby Basics - Base coating Miniatures with the Airbrush

[@Bassmunchkin1]

You mentioned zenithal highlighting, I'm wondering why you didn't prime the model black and then do a white zenithal highlight to follow, that would of saved you time with the intricate black painting

Thanks for the feedback! If I was to go back and do this again, I most certainly would do exactly this! Prime Black, Zenithal white, then paint each color. Absolutely would have saved time!

"Please help me. I have been airbrushing pictures onto my car using regular car basecoat paint, but it takes a full day for the paint to dry. Intermediate painters have told me that when I overspray the basecoat, I need to add a layer of clear coat within 10-15 minutes, otherwise the basecoat will not properly adhere to the clear coat. How can I do this properly? Thank you."

I wish I could help! I know zero about car paint! Are you talking about model cars or real cars?

Thanks for the video, mate - very intricate work. What PSI are you using? I'm really keen to get my new (better) airbrush techniques up to speed for base-coating. Thank you.

Glad that it was helpful Neil! So the PSI slightly changes for me dependent on the airbrush I’m using and how close to the model I am. In this video, I was likely running somewhere between 15-20 PSI with my Sotar 20/20 at such close range. Normally for less precise base coating I use my Badger 105 Patriot at 25-30 PSI. I would highly encourage you to try different PSI levels though, as each compressor can be slightly different, so use trial and error to figure out the sweet spot for your equipment!
