I remember doing this style on vehical doors in late 70's, early 80's. Mostly in mono, matching the vehical main colour. Thanks for showing this video.

[@TheAIRspace]

yeah the sunset, mountain range style mural vans of the 70s was huge at the time! And cowboy and horses! I was not painting back then but definitely remember the mural vans.. Before the A team!

[@jamesperry6603]

I just started out with airbrush and I've been binge watching your videos. So much inspiration!!! These videos are brilliant!!

[@TheAIRspace]

good to hear! I am hopeful ill be livestreaming on facebook regularly in the coming month.. I have to reorganize the studio a bit and get some internet issues worked out :)

Thank you.

Thanks Bill we appreciate you taking time to do this tutorial looks great love the ducks at the end. Thanks again

[@TheAIRspace]

Had to have some ducks.. made a huge difference :)

[@TimothyJohnLukeSmithPSA]

Fantastic demonstration! I love the way the paint is flowing through the brush!

[@TheAIRspace]

oddly, for color I barely reduce. maybe 5 to 10% 🙂

[@lewisz65]

Pretty amazing and you make it looks so easy. Thanks for the tutorial!

Your very welcome!

Nice dude, simple and effective

[@generalrodcocker1018]

this is like magic to me. i wish i have this gift

[@TheAIRspace]

Art builds on itself.. you learn one technique, then another and so on. the more you do it the more creative you can get with it :)

[@Fuzzywuzzywasawoman]

This is a great watch

[@TheAIRspace]

It has been a very popular video of late. Not as much when I first made it. But that's youtube.. ironically this is a fairly simple tutorial. But was hopeful it would help! Thanks!

hello sir ,, i have been practings lines , dots , and loops , and did try some space scenes .. and now since i am bit more comfortable with the brush i want to give it a go .. i recently tried sunset landscape that mark has a lesson for benniners on his channel(the artworkshop)

[@WorksopGimp]

Thanks

[@TheAIRspace]

your welcome!

[@leahrenea2709]

Love this tutorial but I'm pretty sure if I did it, it would suck🤣😂🤣 I do think I will come back to try it later. When I don't suck so bad. Currently I'm putting dates on mine with the hope of being able to see improvement later. BTW you were right, scratching isn't as easy as you make it look.

[@TheAIRspace]

this is really one of the easiest paintings to do. much much easier than fur , portraits and mechanical things 🙂

[@rgcustomz83]

Very nice

[@TheAIRspace]

Thanks

[@PaulDurfey-lj9cf]

Would be nice to know what paint is used opaque or transparent

[@Cyril-eu4gf]

Thanks for doing this video. I get so tired of seeing the same old portraits or tattoo style. I want to see pictures.

[@TheAIRspace]

when i first started youtube i was putting out a lot of content that was not the "norm" Unfortunately a lot of that gets overlooked. But if I can get back to regular content i do plan on a mix of things lifes been incredibly busy and difficult to commit to making a lot of content. its not like youtube is my living. I think some people forget that at times :/

[@Cyril-eu4gf]

@@TheAIRspace you mean you have a proper job😂

[@TheAIRspace]

@@Cyril-eu4gf well im an artist, so its far from a regular job. Sometimes very slow, sometimes very busy. But im in a position i can have an income that fluctuates dramatically.

Would leaving the sun stencil on create to harsh of a line? Just curious as to why you removed it and put it back then took it off again

[@TheAIRspace]

That's exactly right. You want to be able to blend into it. If it remained pure white til the end it would be difficult to make the hazy look.

[@paulacreman722]

Very nice painting. Thanks for the links to the Terraslate, unfortunately all out of stock, so ordered Yupo ( alot of people with time on their hands at the moment ). When you add color to the existing cup color, do you just use back pressure to mix? BTW 3 firsts view/ like and comment LOL.

[@TheAIRspace]

Yes I usually just use backpressure.. Although its a bad habit. The best way is to mix in a seperate container. But i run and gun : ) A lot of folks love yupo. And I still paint on it. Its just not my favorite :)

[@eddmtz4028]

I have been airbrushing for about 5 years but one difficult 2021 year I went off. now I am getting back but my aiwata airbrush is not working properely with the createx ilustration. how do you reduce those since it is the first time I work with them?

[@TheAIRspace]

with createx illustration. I run around 30 psi and very often no reducer at all. i usually just use enough reducer to mix colors.. which is about 5% If you overreduce them they can tend to cut through previous layers unless you are running low psi. there can be a benefit to that. But they are generally very friendly overall. the 4011 works well with them. As always different temperatures and climates affect waterbased paints, so always there is a it depends aspect to reductions.

[@eddmtz4028]

@@TheAIRspace I really appreciate your time answering to My question and resolving them too

[@TheAIRspace]

@@eddmtz4028 no worries, there is a small learning curve with them from other lines of paints, but the colors are very clean and when you get used to them they really do well. Unlike wicked where I might just reduce the daylights out of it these take a little more balance but are capable of very fine work when dialed in.

[@badboysoul8691]

Hi wich air brush would you recommend ? Tia

[@imrozgill9711]

i have 2 sets of paint .. createx illustration and trident (which are opaque) in this vedio u r using the colours like(burnt umber,red violet) which u said are opaque but i have them in transparent , i dont have those shades in trident .. so can i make createx illustrations opaque by adding white in them? but then i am worried that it will get lighter and not remain vibrant. or i can use them transparent without adding white into it .. please guide me

[@TheAIRspace]

you can simply use the createx illustration as is for everything in this. However when adding a tiny amount of white (say 1 drop in 7 or 8 drops of color) or less of a trasnparent paint it just slightly increases coverage power and really does not lighten it dramatically.

[@TheAIRspace]

The "opaques" are mixed colors to get the base color in. Off the top of my head without watching the video (cause I did this years ago) id imagine I mixed some sienna in white to mix the first color I laid down a yellowish orangish base layer.

@@43rocket probably most of the time I stay around 35. Sometimes im up 45 or so on bigger stuff and thicker paints. And rarely im down around 10 or 12

@@43rocket you should probably look at my videos on compressors. I use a Kobalt Quiet tech 4.3 gallon compressor for most of my day to day painting.
