How to use Contrast Paints with a starter Airbrush!
Рет қаралды 12,221

Can I use contrast paints through an airbrush? Yes.
Why don't you use an airbrush on your channel?
I usually don't like to exclude people who don't have access to an airbrush...
However this video shows you how to use one of my now traditional contrast paint schemes with a very accessible airbrush that you can pick up for, along with the compressor, for under $100. @NEOECO-Airbrush sent me some very budget friendly airbrushes to test out and I would happily recommend these as a great way to start out in airbrushing, or even as a good way to test out if you like it before investing more. If there's anything I didn't answer about airbrushing, please let me know below and let me know what you thought of the video as well!
Here's the link to the airbrush I used, which is currently available for $39, and then you can add the compressor as well

@@MediocreHobbies I know you generally use contrast in place of base paints for speed, but with airbrushing that's presumably not an issue - each is as fast as the other. So I'd like to see you use contrast over your zenithal in more of a slap chop style, to see how that works. Would also like to see you do a vehicle and spray shadows and highlights, giving any tips on how to do it or where to spray, etc.

most tutorials you see on youtube use cheap airbrushes like these, so there's really not much difference between a cheap and an expensive one when it comes to something like OSL. my current airbrush was even cheaper than this - i bought a new one rather than pay almost the same for a new needle and nozzle. the compressor i bought (which came with a free airbrush) was 180€ when i bought it a couple of years ago. last time i checked it was down to 110€ . it's a good time to buy an airbrush for sure! :P

Is this the case? -Top trigger airbrushes look as though they could be somewhat unwieldly for someone with small hands. Do you think this would be the case or not?

The compressor is quite enough. And it’s only on when your holding down the trigger and then it shuts off. I do indeed think it will last it is all metal and feels nice.

Nice video ! i'am considering buying one. Do you thinks it s usable in a bedroom ? it's where my paintstation is so i wanna know if it's gonna bring a mess in the room or not :s. Is this setup good for painting smaller minis too ? ( space marines incomin ahah ).

Yep I reckon it will be fine if your doing a few hours at a time the. Mask and maybe a.l spray booth. But for small jobs your all good.

airbrushes shoot a very fine, concentrated cone of paint that doesn't reach very far - they're not like spraycans (which i think most people assume). trust me, unless you're TRYING to make a mess, you're not going to get paint all over your bedroom :D

regarding airbrushes, given the amount of time we spend painting minis, and how much GW minis cost, a few hundred shekels for an airbrush doesn't seem out of line.

How did you find the compressor on this? I got one just after Christmas, but I found the compressor took up too much room in my little home office/hobby space. Something like this would be much better for me!

I was pleasantly surprised. It did a great job. And like you I hate how big and unruly the standard once are. I’m going to continue using this one.

Would you say that when using a airbrush like this that it is necessary to get something like a mask or some manner or spraybooth?
@MediocreHobbies Жыл бұрын
Yes 100%. Ventilation is important I use sparay booths and if your spraying for any extended about of time a mask kid a solid choice.

Im painting up my leviathan box and i've seen people highlighting the lower halves of the angled armour plates how should i approach this, will the airbrush blend the two colours together or do i need to do multiple increments?

That’s a question for a more experienced airbrusher. Im not quite sure what you mean.

I got one of those super cheap, battery powered airbrushes just for priming minis and it's not great so these look a lot more like what I was after. How loud are they?

Moved to an apartment building with not much opportunity for spray priming anymore (noo you can't have aerosols) 😭😭 Can you use regular citadel black base paint as the prime layer or would it be better to get something like one of those Tamiyas black/white ?

There are airbrush primers. I’d say grab one of those.

NO!! Swapping to a smaller needle and nozzle doesn't give you a "finer point" to be more precise. That comes from trigger control and practice. All needle size determines is the size of the pigment particle that will pass through the nozzle without clogging the airbrush at a given air pressure and dilution. ie; inks and dyes go through 0.1-0.15 easily, Acrylics through 0.2-0.4+ etc. Also you said you put loads of water through the 'brush when you were finished? No airbrush cleaner? If you've cleaned it out properly there's no reason to be taking your airbrush apart. Plus, the only thing that should be going in the nozzle is the needle!! Please go and watch an "Introduction to airbrushing by Ken Schlotfield", he owns Badger Airbrushes. It's about 1hr 30mins. He covers choosing the correct airbrush type for the task you want to accomplish, why there are different needle and nozzle sizes. How to clean the airbrush, between colors and at the end of the session. He also tells you what NOT to use to clean your 'brush as well, quite important if you have a Badger 'brush that's still in warranty.
