Finally an explanation why my air brush was spiting! No one else ever showed this on their channels. Thank you need more of this!

[@farkastamas1982]

just as you said. i always had this problem too.

[@anthonyanzalone9742]

When I first started I thought, how can these people work with these things doing this! They must be incredible. Well, there are still some phenomenal artists, but once you get the hang of it. It's just a tool. Anyone can get good at most things. All the human body and mind needs is repetition. I encourage you to do just that and you can be phenomenal also. We all started on the same road. Just keep on walkin and don't stop until you reach your destination. You can go as far as you want. It's non of my business. I'm just saying.

[@keyb0ard620]

[@davidlynch361]

Hi Tim where do you get the compressor for this air gun? Thanks in advance

[@timsears7541]

@@davidlynch361 I got mine on Amazon. It was a package deal. Master brand for around $120 included Airbrush,compressor,hose, airbrush cleaning tools. I have since upgraded to an Awata eclipse, and a Badger patriot 105 airbrushes. I am thinking of upgrading to a compressor with additional air tank so it won't run all the time.

[@joeynuggetz]

This is the most important and most overlooked concept in airbrushing. You’d be surprised how much this minimizes dry tip too. So many videos out there addressing dry tip and no one mentions this very important technique. Well done mate

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Thank you so much and yes it definitely minimizes tip drying , so happy that this video has helped as I personally have seen people who are frustrated trying to do it the wrong way and then I say, “try keeping the air pressed down and just control the paint using the trigger” and all of a sudden ‘presto’ they start to progress 👍🏻

[@TT_Veteran]

I was just about to ask if this would fix problems with tip dry and frequent clogging, as thats what im running into. Thanks for beating me to it!

[@maurusloeffel]

I totally agree! I‘m fairly new in airbrushing my scale models and I‘ve always had these spitting problems after 5-10 min usage. I‘ve watched dozens of tutorials and spoke to thousands of people and no one mentioned this! If it wasn‘t so late in the evening (taking care of my neighbours) I‘d try it out right now - but then it is tomorrow ^^ I hope so much that this solves my problem and newbie-frustration!

[@bobw222]

Having owned an airbrush for about 13 years and only pulled it out once, I know understand why that one time was a miserable failure. Thanks. Loved the turtle...

[@joshjwebster9]

Oh my god I had no idea I should’ve kept the air running after finishing my stroke! That makes so much sense! I was getting annoying splatters when I went to start a new section and constant blockages and I kept thinking I had a problem with the actual airbrush itself. I can’t wait to try this new tip! Thank you so much!

This is literally the first I've watched and I feel that I may have just learned the most valuable lesson I'll ever learn! Plus, having never even held an airbrush until today, I won't have to unlearn a bad habit. Thank you!

[@nomocooties6996]

That was by far the BEST short and informative tip I've seen for a beginner. Thankyou

[@Elemental_Entity]

What is always overlooked in every video I have watched is needle and nozzle side with the kind of paint you use. Createx you need a large needle and the paint wont mix properly if you are using a smaller needle size. Learned that the hard way. Never saw it mentioned in any video.

[@sotiridimitriou3464]

I stop airbrushing because I kept on getting on getting big spots while I was painting. I came across this video and it was my technique, that was the cause. I went out and gave it another shot with what I learnt from this video, and now im back into airbrushing, now I can’t stop. Thankyou this channel is awesome.

[@somnitek]

IN TWO AND A HALF YEARS OF USING AIRBRUSHES TO PAINT MINIATURES NO ONE BOTHERED TO MENTION I WAS SUPPOSED TO KEEP THE AIR RUNNING UNTIL NOW I always was like "what's with all this damn friggin clogging and stuff?! I thought I'm doing it all right!!!" It's been almost a year since I did any airbrushing and probably all b/c either no one ever mentioned as much to me or I never caught it when they did. I'm coming back, paint stained filter spray booth! I'm comin back to you!!! :'-D

[@AirbrushAsylum]

That is fantastic...I’m sorry you had to put the airbrush down for some time due to the frustrations, but I also understand as trying to paint incorrectly creates issues like tip drying, which then causes clogging etc . I am SO happy that this video has helped you out and very glad that you are getting back into airbrushing , happy painting 👍🏻

[@SleepySoviet]

[@adubsdablab]

Most people think it’s common sense, it is only when u think hard about it

[@zeveruz4342]

SAME, i´ve been using an airbrush for painting modelkits since 2018 and this is the first time I´ve heard of this technique, truly a helpfull vid.

[@DeadDiverDan]

Man, you nailed it! I gave up on my airbrushing because I kept getting stippeling when I started a new spot. Now I got a reason to try it again. You made alot of sense when you said that you where listening for the air. Thanks for the help

[@stuartkorte1642]

Technically dual action but in reality, leaving air on and doing single paint action is a great tip especially for those of us that can’t chew gum and walk. Thanks!

[@AirbrushAsylum]

Yes , so true ....I often tell my students that mastering this technique is like patting your head and rubbing your tummy at the same time lol 😂

[@superkillr]

Almost nobody considers the "dual" action of the airbrush both paint and air manipulation. The air was always supposed to be 100%, and the paint adjustable. Airbrush Asylum isn't showing you some alternative way to use the airbrush.

[@johngraves6878]

Thank you. My new double action airbrush is arriving today. I really needed that. I will be using it to cover up blemishes in wood doors.

[@Jonas_Fox]

Great fundamental to share. I found that a hunk of dense foam (cut from the case my airbrush came in) stuck to the trigger with double sided tape, considerably helps with control and fatigue. Essentially, the foam makes a taller and more responsive trigger that really helps. Give it a shot. I used Guerilla Glue brand tape so it's good and on there.

[@c_d_modelshop]

As someone who received an airbrush as a gift to model making, I can proudly say that this channel is the most useful ive ever seen. Ive learnt more in just an hour compared to the year ive owned my airbrush👌

[@veekleek7535]

[@Tony-rl2fr]

Ha, great tip, I'm new to airbrushing, this is EXACTLY what I was doing. Thought it was just the crappy air brush that came with the compressor. While it may be a crappy airbrush, it was my lack of knowledge causing the splatter. Thank you!

I've been building model kits for a couple of years now but have been too intimidated to make the jump to airbrush mainly because I knew I'd want to use double action but far too often read about the "spitting paint" issue and was wary of my overall understanding of the double action mechanics...despite watching a significant amount of videos. Your video has actually given me the confidence to proceed to airbrushing. Well done, sir.

I just found your channel and this video as others have stated is the first one that explained why my airbrush was spitting. Since using my airbrush like you demonstrated the quality of my airbrushing has improved significantly. Thank you so much.

[@dykatran]

I'm very surprised that so many airbrush users don't know this most important technique. This is the very first thing that every gunpla builder who wants to paint by airbrush must learn properly before officially spraying some kit. And many airbrush companies like Mr Hobby, Tamiya or Iwata also offer trigger-type airbrushes because many users get cramped after hours of keeping the button down and pulling it back at the same time.

[@frankcalandriello2224]

Just purchased my first airbrush. I have not done any painting yet because I wanted to watch videos to learn what to do and not do. No other video I have seen has addressed the importance of proper air control. Thank you !

Best airbrush explanation so far.

[@steveoc64]

Airbrushing models and miniatures for years - and Im another one who didnt know this about the constant air. Looking forward to giving it a go this weekend. Also - another thing Ive learned - a $29 airbrush is every bit as good as a $290 airbrush on day 1. Then on day 2, you learn that the other most important thing about airbrushing is you need to learn how to clean them properly. A lot of the time, the $29 airbrush isn't designed to be maintained the same way as that $290 airbrush, so you end up going through 10 of them anyway :)

[@BigRalphSmith]

Actually, the $29 brushes are designed just like the $290 brushes, the only real difference is the quality of materials and workmanship in their assembly. Both of those things can be compensated for if people just pay attention and don't get lazy with cleaning and maintenance. Been using a $25 Master G22 for years and, with proper care, it still looks new and it performs better than when it was new. Of course, I was lucky to have an experienced brusher teach me how to lap in a needle/nozzle set (the real secret to excellent atomizing and spray performance) and how to rebuild an air valve assembly and I still haven't seen any videos on YT that show how to do those two things. Buying new brushes is totally unnecessary if you know how to work on your brush and know how to get parts.

[@steveoc64]

@@BigRalphSmith Totally agree ! (although, those "$29" brushes are now $15 AUD with free delivery !!) It took me many mistakes to learn how to clean a brush adequately, let alone how not to overtighten some parts and snap the threads ... so its cost me a about 5 cheapies to work out what works.

[@steveoc64]

@@BigRalphSmith Very interested to know more about lapping needles as well. There are some kits on the market that look interesting, but Im sure doing by hand with the right tools would be the way to go. Agree too that cheapy, can be made to perform better than new, if you get a good one, and do the right things to improve the flow.

The one thing I that always did was to stop spraying after each pass( like a painter does painting a car at an auto body shop) rather than hold the trigger down and zip back and forth,I also used one of those plastic trigger adapter so that a can of spray paint can be used like a spray gun..TIA..

Most videos I've seen have always highly recommended that you use a paint airbrush, it gives for a better finish. The people in the videos are skilled, professional model makers and take it for granted that you know how to use an airbrush and do not give hints, tips, advice on how to use one.
