Tip 1. When you are cleaning your airbrush, increase the air pressure by ten to fifteen psi. Tip 2.use lint free scientific tissue wet with thinner to clean the inside of your paint cup and the outside of airbrush. 3. A 1:2 ratio of paint to thinner will help you achieve candy paint( and is my go to ratio in general) 4.apply photo etch parts with glue before you paint to ensure a strong hold( most hobby glues eat paint). 5. Use an explosion proof exhaust fan when painting with lacquer because the fumes are flammable( the fan is usually more powerful as well and will keep your environment fume free). 6. The distance you hold your part away from the spray will change the texture of the finished paint 7. Use a moisture trap as water will cause a splatter effect and ruin your finish( I do my painting near a fish tank so I use one on my tank and my gun) 8. Make sure you use the rapid drying thinner for metallic colors or the metal flakes will sink into the paint and effect the metallic look 9. Always use the slower drying thinner for non-metallic colors to ensure a perfect finish 10. Always use a static free brush on your parts to get rid of the static electric buildup from sanding that will attract dust to your paint job

[@0980s]

Some incorrect information here. Frosting happens when the paint sprayed from the airbrush dries before hitting the surface of whatever you're painting. Can happen due to a combination of humidity and temperature. Using a retarder when thinning will help reduce frosting.

[@StudioGundam]

Thank you for correcting me! 😅😅😅 guys read this up! It's really good :)

[@ArionRDAW]

I keep seeing your hair brushing against the top of your set-up. You could say it's... hair-brushing.

[@unsadcat8301]

I know im bit too late but 1 tips Always paint you Gundam *"in Good mood"* Seriously the result is surprising

[@MerrittFilban]

Have to be careful sometimes though, there is a difference between 'Dry' and 'Cured' If you plan on masking, weathering, or other surface modification, if you don't let the paint cure enough, you can run the risk of the primer or other paint layers lifting. Also, Drying/Curing time will depend on if you are using Lacquer, Enamel, Acrylic, or Oil. I would also be careful using thinners right on the plastic parts for removing paint, especially enamel, that can make your parts brittle and shatter. Great videos btw, looking great.

[@StudioGundam]

Definitely great tip! Thank you buddy! And yes enamels are killers 😅

[@jasoncheung7511]

Loving the tutorials!! A couple of questions if that’s cool? 1) How do you decide where to add the custom panel lines? 2) Do you always panel line on white Gundams in black panel liner? If not, how do you decide what colour to panel line in? 3) How do you decide when to add weathering? Your tips would be greatly appreciated!! 😃

[@StudioGundam]

Hi! 1. I decide where to add based on the part itself, if it's blank, I wanna add details. And the color of the panel line should fits your theme! So you should decide yourself what color it will be :) and weathering itself please add according to logic, obviously on the legs will have more and then slowly reduced to when you're at the top! Hope that helps bro!

[@ji.gatcha]

great tutorial bro! tips are on point. from my experience, spraying gloss top coat is very different from how i spray matte top coats. if you want that glossy top coat you have to spray it wet, if not it will get grainy and will require more layers to get a mirror finish. this will save you the polishing and sanding step that is common when you 'dust' it on. learned it from spraying cars where a gloss finish is almost always desired.

[@StudioGundam]

Thank you! That's what I'm looking for! Good tip man! 😃

[@paul_winter]

Good tutorial! From my experience can say that paint ratio heavily depends on type of paints and manufacturer. Personally, I use GW(citadel) and Vallejo paints, cause I came to gunpla hobby from Warhammer, and more used for those brands, and those paints quite thicker than Tamiya in general. But they got an "air" line of paints specially for airbrushes, but still IMHO they may use a bit thinner. So you need to try to understand, as the author says)

[@b_blader7142]

Nice sir... Thank you po sa mga tips. :)

[@praharaaria9322]

Be careful when cleaning by closing the front of the airbrush and then pulling the trigger. For airbrushes that are of poor quality, they may cause hardening and clogging of the trigger because thinner and paint may blow back into the area around the trigger.

[@bassbullienation8703]

Lol my Wing Gundam Proto zoro frosted heavy on me but I loved the look so I hit it up with Tamiya snow weathering and it looks like it was caught up in a blizzard lol!!

Nailed it again G! Big props man! (Need to get my f16 out the way so I can start my MG Seed Zaku) also gravity brush arrived! One thing I can say for everyone for airbrushing primers, give Ultimate Modelling Products Primers a try. They come in grey, black and white, and don't need thinned for airbrush as it is literally like smooth liquid. It's also called Ammo One Shot by Mig and Badger Stynylrez (seriously that last one?! Who? I mean...yeesh!!)

Hey there Studio G. Great videos regarding painting. I'm in the process of using spraycans before I go down the airbrush route. But I want your thoughts of fluorescent (glow in the dark paint). How would you go about applying it on your kit if it's possible?

[@shynkx]

Started doing Gunpla recently and love your channel! Very informative and well explained!! Quick question for painting! Before starting painting, when you sandpaper the parts to remove the nubs, is it recommended to finish with a higher grit(2000-3000) or less? Keep up the good work!

[@farraseldy3121]

Always informative man, really looking forward to your next tutorial! A lil question, do you sand all the part's surface before priming or just straight wash it?

[@StudioGundam]

I only sand the part i customize or the part where the nub marks are too obvious :)

[@farraseldy3121]

It's gonna save so much time not to sand all the part. Thanks for replying, and keep droppin em rad tutorials for the community!

[@edanderson7473]

Love the vids and work. Do you wash kits just for the mold release reasons or sanding dust, because I see you wash before customization or scribing. I struggle with this because after I prime I occasionally have to fix mistakes then prime again.just trying to get the best paint job possible.

Hello from france. Thanks for all the tips. Could you make a video about the different step for building? And the different order for types of paints? I had a lot of issue with Enamel damaging parts.

[@StudioGundam]

If you use enamel straight on the plastic definitely you'll run into some problems with it damaging the plastic so put on a top coat first. A thin layer will do :) and also the steps are basically the one I'm narrating in my build videos :) just tie them up together and you should get the entire build process :)

Sorry@@StudioGundam , Metallic candy paint style. It gives an incredibly shiny finish. So far my research has led me believe that the ALCLAD II paint range is best. I just wanted to know, if you can add a weathering after? I bought a few gunpla sets to practice with until I'm ready to finish with a PG Exia Lighting Model.

[@MonroesArtStudio]

If you're starting out with Spray Cans what's the top coat process? Is there a spray can version for top coats?

[@michealknight6003]

My question is if you decide not to custom paint your gunpla and just want to add water decals should a topcoat be applied before, after, or both an application of water decals? For the water decals will be using a liquid-like Mr. Setter. If a topcoat is needed should it be matte, semi-gloss, or gloss?

[@sambaker5649]

hey, just wondering your opinion on what type of paint I should use. I've done spray painting on bigger (not model) projects and plan to do a lot of test painting before I get to the model. I also did my first LED wiring for the rx78 (Gundam factory design) I want to paint and instead of having clear plastics for the lights I ended up sanding the plastic thin enough for light to shine through (I know it got less than .5mm thick in some areas). If I end up using lacquer or enamel, do you think these paints could potentially end up deforming these areas? Love your videos btw and definitely inspired me to push my limits on this build I got going.

If I wanna make panel lines (with tamiya panel line accent black) do you suggest a pre-top top coat on airbrushed (with acrylic colors) painted parts? Cause I am afraid using thinned cotton swab for removing residuing lines and remove accidentally the original paint...

Yes definitely. And top coat will prevent your plastic from breaking and cracking :)

[@fabriziomele4289]

@@StudioGundam always sand the kit first before painting yes? should i use 600 or more like 1000 for the kit?

[@JahanSoundSystem]

I'm asking since I'm not sure if this happened to me. So a while back, I painted a kit, it dried and came out smooth to the touch and didnt chip, but after I top coated it, the kit felt more coarse and could chip easier. Was that frosting or a different problem entirely?

[@StudioGundam]

It's because the top coat wasn't thinned enough. Or it might be too thick. Or when you spray it on the paint cans out too course. It happened to me once and since then I sprayed around 15 psi and the problem I solved :)

[@aldoumacias6434]

On some occasion, notice that the community recommends sanding the pieces before painting them. Would you also recommend it?

[@animepabu5526]

Makes sense since if you did it after it would rub away the paint. After sanding do a pre coat there’s a specific name for it but it allows you to see the imperfections and then you can sand them down. Once it’s all perfect and what not you then spray paint it with your paints. Although that’s what I’ve learned through watching a lot of videos. I’ve never actually painted before but that’s the process I would do with. If the paint is uneven or something then maybe sand it with a high grade sand paper like #3000? I may be completely wrong too btw ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

What thinner do you use to mix with primer?

[@yapjack468]

Do I need to prime for spray paint (spray can)?

One question: Can paint gunpla with gundam markers?

[@alvinyu5387]

Define markers. Sharpies? Ink markers? Paint markers? In my experience, paint markers like Gundam Markers are made to dry quickly, so it’s very hard to get even finished since you need to apply it in strokes. They’re much more suited to be used for small details.

Studio G: 0:56 Spray fast. 1:22 Do not rush the paint job. Me: What? That's confusing.

[@leonye7047]

I think he meant to say do not rush while using airbrush

Is there a way to top coat with spraycans?

[@alter6247]

Do you use masker when painting?

[@DuyLe-vm2jq]

I have been watching your videos for a couple of month. However im quite confussing since in this video you mentioned the color:thinner (1:1, 1:1,5 or even 1:2). I remeber in you videos and previous tutorial show that you used ratio of 10:3-5. Can explain that? Anyway, this is one of my favorite custom channel ever, Keep it up bro!

[@7dragonred]

1:1, 1.5 or 2 is for surfacer (so your primer) and 10:3.5 is for color:thinner

[@blueoysterboi4742]

what are those little sticks holding the parts called

[@draco123h2o]

What kind of primers do you suggest to paint with your Gpaints?

[@StudioGundam]

Mr surfacer 1200 is the one I use :)

[@draco123h2o]

@@StudioGundam Awesome, thanks!!

[@jettfastballs]

Does Frosting occur when particular areas of parts receive to much top coating?

[@StudioGundam]

Frosting likes to appear in corners and edges :)

[@alvinyu5387]

Studio G don’t forget that humidity can also affect the appearance of topcoat! If it’s too wet/cold out, hold off on top coating, as it prevents the solvents from escaping properly.

i have the basic compressor where u cant adjust the psi, is it okay

[@ManikClub]

I see a lot of people using flat strips of what seems to be plastic sheets to "enhance" their decorations... what is it? where can I find it? what should I be searching for?

[@StudioGundam]

Those are called pla plates :) perfect for adding details and scratch build. If pla plates are not available try styrene sheet :)

[@ManikClub]

@@StudioGundam thank you so much :D I wish I had the backing to do a similar channel in french, here in quebec, canada. unfortunately, no company would even look my way, my twitch channel having barely 450 followers :\
