Like a few people around here I am pretty new with an airbrush. My son's friend came over this week with a guitar hero guitar that was quite beat up so I talked him into letting me give it a go with my airbrush. This is my first time trying out the TrueFlame technique...,
that is SICK! if you could shrink the scale and put that on a tank for instance... i would send you SOOOOOOOO many tanks in the mail you would hate doing that
This is where I learned the technique if you are interested. They are true pros and they explain the techniques in easy to understand steps. Watch them a couple of times and then go for it!:victory:
That is sweet. Oh and thanks for the links. I was up until 1am last night watching them. I am looking for a new brush to buy here in a week or so and went to his website. They are telling me to get the DAGR airbrush. I just do not know!
"Candy" is a translucent paint that they use. What I found as a substitute was the Createx translucent orange that I picked up at Michael's for about $5.00. It is really good stuff for your blending coat.
I'm going to have a go at that water droplet thing just to see if it works.
I have found a really nice site http://www.airbrush-shop.co.uk/ for various odds and ends to do with airbrushing. I need to work out how expensive it is though.
Candy can be a royal pain in the arse to work with if you are not careful with it. As damned fist said Creatix makes a great line of transparent paints that work well, or you can use the inks if you want some shine, and the washes work really well sprayed over metalics.
D' is right. I ended up using the Baal Red wash to tone down some of the colours on my second attempt and it work very well. Btw, you can check out my new mail box in this thread:
