Airbrushing Warhammer, for an inexperienced hobbyist it might be quite intimidating. I'm definitely in that camp. I not going to get any better at it not practicing though so in this video I'm finally putting in the practice to improve my airbrushing skills on space marines. Will it be a total mess? Probably.

Piggybacking off this to give you my top tip for preventing 90% of (my) stoppages: an old toothbrush head mounted within easy reach when airbrushing. I've glued mine to the holder I use for my brush. I have the bristles pointing straight up, and then I dribble a little water or alcohol on. Whenever I feel a clog/dried tip starting, i just rub the airbrush through the toothbrush. Sometimes I do it preventatively as well, sort of like rinsing a regular brush. Having the toothbrush head glued in place makes it incredibly easy to do, and I don't even have to empty out the airbrush cup first. It obviously won't do anything for issues inside the airbrush, but it has solved almost all my issues during regular use. I hope my explanation makes sense, it felt awkward without showing pictures.

FWIW for stoppages, I saw a great tip on Airbrush Asylum, which is (for a dual action airbrush) to keep the airbrush air on at all times rather than doing short bursts. Short bursts makes it more likely to clog because when you cut off the air suddenly whatever paint is going through the mechanism dries half way out, so you're looking to reduce the number of times you cut off the airflow in a painting session
@murphy7801

There are different ways to avoid this, Vince says to avoid blowing air through the airbrush unless there is also coming paint out because the airflow will dry any paint left on the needle. It has served me well, and I don´t have a lot of clogs, and a quetip on hand with airbrush cleaner on it to wipe the needle makes them even less frustrating.

The main thing is to keep it on until after the paint has stopped. So if you continue painting it goes on full blast. If you stop just make sure that the paint is out before stopping the airflow. It takes some getting used to.

@ryanwblitz4507 4 ай бұрын
Try not to start with your paint in the pot first. It's good practice to go thinners/flow improvers first. Run them through for one or two small bursts and then add paints. This essentially lubes your needle a bit prior to spraying your paint. Makes cleaning easier too.

A few tweaks to the way you load your cup, maximum duration of paint in cup dwell time, and quick rinse practices will basically resolve 99% of the issues you had in this video. Glad to see you guys branching out!!

As far as stoppages, I would say thinning is even more important for the airbrush than in hand painting. Especially with how thin and quick drying the airbrushed layers are, I've found I can build up smooth layers without having to stop to unclog the nozzle and still batch paint faster than I would going by hand. Keep at it, you'll get there!

Good on you for sticking with it! It really is worth the time investment to learn. The model turned out excellent! I'm quite experienced with the airbrush, and I can point out exactly where some of your problems were: 1) You need to thin almost everything you put through your airbrush, including inks, even though they feel thinner. Especially white. White pigment has a tendency to gum up. Thin your airbrush paints in a little container outside of the bowl so you can test the consistency before putting them through the airbrush. I go for milk consistency most of the time. There are these wonderful little metal, reusable mixing saucers that are perfect for this I got on Amazon. Also, thinner whites also go on smoother. If you mix in a little gloss medium and airbrush flow improver (which is basically retarder, not the same as airbrush thinner), then your white will be less chalky and more durable. 2) Keeping the airflow going while being gentle on the trigger is the way to go. I still keep the PSI around 30-40. You can do that without causing spider webbing as long as you build up the layers slowly and are gentle on the trigger. 3) Paints take longer to fully cure than you think, especially white ink, which should be dried over night. Applying a transfer straight away will wreck them. The issue is more visible with an airbrush because the layers are thinner. When using white ink and over airbrush layers, before I do any techniques that will stress the surface of the model, like decals or drybrushing, I wait an hour, gloss varnish (which you should also thin), then wait overnight and work on other stuff in the meantime. In short, the adage "thin your paints" applies double with the airbrush.

I’m quite comfortable with the airbrush now but i still make mistakes and i learn new things. Trying new paints with different viscosities and how to get white not to clog is an ongoing thing. Keep up the good work and you will ”master” it in no time at all.

I recently treated myself to an airbrush and have found the learning experience to be very fulfilling, difficult but fulfilling. I am far from great(or even good) at using it, but I am not over thinning or clogging the airbrush every time anymore! One thing that I hear a lot about airbrushing(was even brought it up in this video) is that people find it to be annoying to set up, prep and clean. I personally haven't found it to be any better or worse than brush painting in that regard because I don't have a permanent set up for painting at all so I have to get out my paints and set up to paint every time as it is.

One of the best tips I've gotten for airbrushing, esp as someone who is pretty new to it and not very experienced with thinning paints, is to buy a shower tile and prime it. Try your mix, make it thicker or thinner as needed, try again, etc etc until its right. Then, because its tile, when it gets overloaded with paint you can just rag + acetone and its like new! It was also super helpful to do this so I could practice and get used to trigger control, the size of the spray, how far I should be from the mini, etc.

It was great to meet you and the crew at LVO! I hope to see you guys again in Las Vegas. I enjoyed the conversations and learned a lot in the drybrushing/OSL class. I think there's some parallels between using airbrushes and using my Artis Opus drybrushes. The fear of ruining the tools or the model is more of an obstacle than lack of skill in using them. I found that my fear of the tools was unfounded and you just need to get in there and use them. I'm still not great with my airbrush but I've learned a few things, mostly through mistakes and learning to fix them. I've found when using inks that it can help to mix in some airbrush medium or other type of acrylic medium, even varnish. Otherwise they can reactivate when they get wet. The added medium helps to lock in the layer.

As it looks like the blockages are forming due to paint drying at the tip of the needle, it could of course be a thinning issue, but one thing which is often overlooked is the need to lube the needle. One drop of lube, rubbed all over the shaft should be enough to prevent this and let the liquid spray out much more smoothly! (In all seriousness though, get a tube of airbrush lubricant for a few £, apply a very thin coat of it over the needle and it should help to avoid this type of blockage).

Total recognition! , i kind of came over the scary hurdle after painting alot of necromunda terrain and got the feel of the airbrush and tested around alot, but since im a teflon brain and can´t remember diddely squat i took the effort to write down succesfull paint recipes in a noteblock so maybe information will stick someday

Mini looks awesome! Good work and such a good message. You can't just expect to bust out an airbrush and immediately be awesome at it.

Chin up Pat, it's a whole new set of skills to learn! And you're basically raw-dogging the learning part with trial and error and no-one to teach you in person. Your end result looks fantastic, even if you do think you put heaps too much time into it.

The algorithm recommended this video to me. The fact that you showed where you stumbled and had issues made me subscribe. It shows you are a normal human, unlike the "pro painters" who only show their best work in videos.

Genuinely loved this video despite not originally being invested in the topic. I own an airbrush and having used it a bunch over the years I never really mastered it. This video sums up a lot of my experiences with airbrushing and I feel seen! 😂😂 Thanks Patrick for a great journey of a video, I look forward to more Honest Painter content. 😊

I think I’ve been painting long enough that I’d like to try airbrushing. Just seems like so much work to set up and use and clean and put away. That finished result looks AWESOME

That is a airbrush quality question, the better the brush the better the atomization of the paint is, in my opinion nothing beats harder&steenbeck brushes on that, but just keep going with the airbrush and you will get the feel for what youre doing wrong when things go wrong. The paint must be totaly cured before you use the decal solutions on it or it will reactivate the paints. And its fun that you guys credit Darren latham for the sponge in the tube thing, that is actully a tool thats been sold for years and years in the scale model communety, even greenstuffworld has its own once

@@thepaintingphase yeh he does have a lot of pepole following him and he uses the DIY once in a few clips, so i do understand why you think it was something he invented🙂. Was a fun video, i like that its more airbrush work in videos these days, its a great tool to use, Just keep going with it and in a couple of years youll have great control and understanding of it

I use a no name airbrush it's my first airbrush and I've only had to replace nozzle once , I think the key to learning how to use an airbrush is cleaning, different paints react differently so how well we prepare them for airbrushing can change, playing with the cheaper paints can be hit and miss , I find the more costly paints more predictable. Good video Patrick I think it's good to highlight some of the issues we all face at one point or another

This is a great video. It encompassed all the reasons why I barely finish many of my minis irrespective of using an airbrush or not. I'm just terrified of making mistakes and having to start over any good work I have done. I feel deflated for days and my stormcast lay around not finished 😢

Proper candid video with errors and issues for future novice airbrush users to look out for when working on their own projects- and I think the end result of that terminator looks awesome! Nice one Pat!

at about the 12 minute mark you look like you're contemplating drinking the paint stripper - it looks like an incredibly frustrating process you've been through but you've had a fantastically positive attitude to all the problems cropping up and the finished mini looks great. nice one.

Excellent video Pat 👍 think you are right! I've just bought my first airbrush and I'm scared of it 🤣 but you've just got to put the hours in and practice with it! I think the terminator turned out pretty well!
