This is very much a comparison video, between 3 quality airbrushes with different nozzle sizes.
I do hope that you find Airbrushing Part 2 interesting, here at Chadwick Model Railway 225.
I return next time with progress in the Branch Line Station area.

Charlie, hope you get rid of that lurgy quickly, and feel better soon. Great video on the difference needle size makes on the result with your airbrush, the finer the needle the more precise and finer the result is. Thank you for sharing, and I apologise for oversharing on my response to the previous video. Keep up the good work, and cheers, stay safe, Michael

Wonderful presentation of an often frightening subject! I look forward to future installments. I'm looking forward to painting/lettering some rolling stock and steam locomotives, and perhaps some backdrop 'clouds' and scenery. If I can press on without self-embaressment, I someday hope to paint a set of passenger cars (resin kits) in a three color scheme using Tamiya masking tape and a finer tip for spraying the narrower areas. Thanks!

Vicks sinex in one of those airbrushes, crank up the pressure to 60psi and a quick shot up each snout you’ll be as right as rain. Joking aside, great video’s and keep em coming, good timing as well as I’m shopping for an airbrush. Nice to know the different needle sizes and comparisons, definitely food for thought(gold info) Oh if we’re doing requests can I ask for a video on coach configurations, always been a bit of a murky subject for a beginner like me.

Hi Charlie….having had many years experience with spray guns etc ,I went for the Starmax airbrush which has a “pistol”type trigger,I feel the control of paint flow is easier…possibly just personal preference. Another bit of annul info….the nozzles you mention are called fluid tips.Your skills are admirable,as it takes alot of time and effort to achieve them,it boils down to practice.The Mahl stick was a good shout ,or some kind of wrist rest would assist first time users get finer results. Keep up the good videos.

Useful and entertaining at the same time, that takes some doing. There is one, admittedly minor, point: you showed how to remove the aircap for close in work, beware that you do not get too close and jab the job, you will need a new needle and if it was a hard jab then possibly the nozzle as well. You have to have a steady hand to work that close. On the subject of the air cap it is worth noting that a 'setup' may be required, a setup is the needle, nozzle and aircap. On my H&S the difference between the the two aircaps may seem too tiny to bother with but I tried swapping the aircaps to nozzle/needle and the results were expletive laden. I'm surprised the Iwatas do not have interchangeable setups, I think the Eclipse should be equal to my Evolution where the setups are interchangeable. Looking forward to the next little bell icon and get well soon.

Another top job Charlie. Apologies but I've not watched part one yet. You are totally right about muscle memory though. I remember my first time trying to drive my dad's car all those decades ago, an old early Austin Maxi 1750 that had let's just say a 'way' of setting off and changing gear. It was the same when I taught my self to ride a motorbike from years of being a quite keen cyclist trying to re learn that the lever on the left was not the rear brake but the clutch and that said rear brake was now operated by the foot. I guess I got used to it as I'm still here. A very interesting video so much so I guess I'll have a look at part one. Cheers Charlie, all the best.

One Tip (mentioned in most airbrushing guides) is to cut down the effects of "Splatter" either until you train your muscle memory or as good practice. Start the air & paint flow off your expensive model & then bring it across when you are happy with the flow. This will require some sort of backing (Newspaper, box or spray booth). You will not be popular if you spray over £800 a roll wallpaper. Probably not for cheap B&Q or Homebase that most of us have either!

Would you consider doing something similar on DCC control systems? I am realising that if I want to guess the best out of my DCC sound locomotives the right system is so important and its a considerable investment. I haven't even started to consider all the other advantages / disadvantages in regards to number of points, slow running, signals etc.

Hope you’re back in fine fettle soon Charlie. Personally, I’d prescribe a tot of Wood’s Rum! Great video on the different sizes of nozzles. As you said, horses for courses depending on what you’re painting. I get the feeling it’s a learning curve with each airbrush. They all seem to have different positions that the control valve opens for both air and paint. Haven’t looked myself, but there could be (if not, there’s an opportunity for some enterprising outfit) a bolt on in-line reservoir for the compressor. It would only need to be a ‘tee’ piece with a tank attached to just iron out the compressor pulses. A bit like the ‘stay alive’ in a DCC locomotive. Thanks for your encouraging reply to my comment in the Airbrush Part 1 video. This one definitely showcases the abilities of the various airbrushes available. Many thanks.👍 dB.

Very interesting as always Charlie. I had no intention of purchasing an airbrush and that situation has not changed. (I don't mean that disrespectfully) Going back some 50+ years, my brother purchased an airbrush, and as an apprentice couldn't afford a compressor, so he used a tyre (still on the wheel) which he propped up in our bedroom and did some wonderful work on mirrors! (I was first to marry and leave home so he was glad to get a lot of extra room!)

Thanks for that Charlie. Re air reservoirs and stuttered paint delivery- I noticed your compressor stops and starts whilst you're air brushing, surely there's some smoothing of the airflow going on? And the results you get seem very smooth. Just wondered how important a compressor with a reservoir actually is. It seems to add a lot to the price of one.

I will now spend time having a proper ‘play’ using the techniques you have shown. Well done. Also, what has put me off previously was the cleaning of the air brush. Any tips here would be greatly appreciated in a future video as the airbrush kit came with virtually no detailed instructions for disassembling and assembly!

Charlie, Thank you so much for the airbrush 101, having just bought an airbrush myself this is invaluable. I notice your lettering using the air brush is a bit shakey, I promise mine is worse. Some years ago I was lucky enough to see a sign writer at work using a 'Mahl stick' to steady his hand - not tried it myself, just a thought that came to mind. I wait with baited breathe for the next airbrush instructional.

@ChadwickModelRailway 20 күн бұрын

That’s an excellent point, Scott. However, I couldn’t use the Mahler stick as I had my elbows on the table. Regards, Charlie.

It would also be helpful to have a miniature spray gun like the Iwata lph-80 or G6 for the larger work and when you need anything with a smooth finish. Those small illustrator's airbrushes are really made for shading, making them perfect for weathering, but a miniature spray gun can allow yo to strip and repaint locos and rolling stock for a thinner, yet smoother and more realistic coat of paint, which will allow the full weathered finish to look better. Scale Model Workshop has the perfect video series about this! Get well soon Charlie!

Charlie a very well explained short video on the differences in airbrush needle sizes, on the the first airbrush you used you seemed to be adjusting the back of the needle, would I be correct in thinking that you were increasing or decreasing the amount of paint available ? Great Video Terry

Great info Charlie. My wife was in sakes for 3M gif many years so I have the mask and a few other goodies. Can you expand a bit on thinning down the paints. I have seen others who continually thin down their paints ? Have never seen the trick of removing the nose cover, very cool. You might get to it later, how do you paint a loco or coach ? That might be in Episode 3 Thanks for sharing

Oh Charlie, you absolute trooper! 😄 That’s the trouble with being a one-man-band: if you’re ill, there’s no one else to bang the drum or twang the banjo 🪕 🥁 🤣 Likewise it’s hard to sing with no lungs 🫁 It’s good that these things are taken seriously now. I cringe when I look at the care-free macho crap I used to experience on sites when I earned money as a cleaner-upper/tea boy for my uncle’s work parties. How they managed to do all that AND smoke about 40 roll-ups a day…well I guess that’s why they all looked ancient when they were actually only in their 40s! 😳 Funnily enough, you mention physics (which I say is anything but boring 😉), because I have found that, contrary to the generally held belief that ‘you don’t learn nuffink useful at school’, it has been invaluable in helping me understand how to build things in my head and how to sufficiently over-engineer things so they won’t fall down, disintegrate or tip off-balance 🤔 Most importantly, it meant I was able to combine it with my construction experience to make solid baseboards for railways 🤩 Have a great weekend Charlie, this tutorial is giving me plenty of knowledge I’m going to use when I get my workspace sorted out 👍🍻 🍀

Thanks for the video, Charlie! Have you used the really fine settings for the airbrush? Like when you paint a very fine line, even when you first started doing those 4 wavy lines, have you ever used your airbrush to do anything like that? I've found that basically I use my airbrush as a slightly more precise spraycan, so I don't use it to do really fine stuff, but basically being able to mix my own paint and have it atomized much more finely. Finely? Sure. I guess I might be able to use it for track weathering, but it hasn't seemed like doing it that close has been necessary, and I'm looking to find other applications for my own airbrush. Thanks!

More good stuff Mr B. Where was the airhose running? I couldn’t quite see. I am right handed and rather than the hose dropping down inside my arm, I like to position it over my arm so the hose drops down on the outside. I find that then when I move my arm the weight of the hose (even though minimal) doesn’t pull on the actual airbrush so much and helps me get better fine detail. You’ll be airbrush painting your own backscenes soon. As for the cold, Navy rum?

I may have missed it but how do you know what size needle you have? I have two older brushes and I don't remember seeing what size the needles are. Fact is I didn't know you could get different size needles. Also, what size do you recommend for what job? Ex: I need to do a whole bunch of weathering but I also have to repaint a few engines.

To be honest, Bob, I have no idea. However, I would go for a .35 mm needle size such as the Iwata eclipse. Regards Charlie.
