I got my dad back into modeling last year (reversed father/son dynamic). I gave him my old airbrush and snagged him a bunch of 1/32 kits cheap. After slogging through the Revell Stuka he actually working on this 109! So, I'm sending him here to learn and grow.

This tutorial helped me a great deal. With the pre-shading I learned here, I entered my first contest last Spring and won gold. Crazy!

Thanks, Brett!

Hello,

you are doing a great job on making all those tutorials, thank you!

Still very unusual way to hold an airbrush, yeas?

grey paint on grey plastic on a grey spray booth background. i'm sure there is a lot to be learned here, but I can't actually see much of what he's discussing. The basic pre-sharing concept i understand, but i dont understand the 'fill in' so much.

It`s all good and stuff, but i think this guy takes too little care in performing his airbrushing. NEVER start a stroke on your model. Start the "run"away from your model surface, to eliminate "spit marks" I also have the Aztek airbrush piece.

All in all a very good presentation for the dummies. Aztek is not nr.one airbrush .

Is that the 1:32 Messerschmitt from Hasegawa?

Could you tell me what sort of compressor you use. I'm thinking about getting an Aztek double action air brush like ours and just wanted to know what you use. Thanks.

This is a good technique especially in wheel wells and wing folds. Yet for me it was a little too over powering when I tried it on the outer model surface! Personally, I'd rather use pastel chalk here because I can control the effect better....just my opinion.

You show the method very clearly.

Thanks alot

That's actually known as priming when you color in the details and then go for a broad overspraying. That way, you won't obiliterate your preshading by just wack it on the model with a heavy paint coat. You want your preshading to show through.
