Part 2 of 2 on how to airbrush true fire using water based paints. All the true fire tutorial videos ive seen have used solvent candies so i thought i would tackle it from the water-based perspective.
Im no true fire expert but these two videos will teach you one method for airbrushed fire which you can then go and create your own flames using your artistic ability.

  • hi svee you have probably been asked this but when using the wicked colours do you use an airbrush cleaning fluid or just water?

    great vidz by the way you have inspired me to get on ebay and spend some money on a few bits and bobs and see where i go with it.

    and can i say your easy to watch and make me laugh out loud making the mrs and kids think im a loon sat in the corner earphones on laughing to myself anyway well done and keep up the ace vids take it easy Buck

  • @trooper6967 lol my family think im a nutter too mate, you are not alone there ;)

    I sometimes use a cleaning fluid if ive got a bit of a blockage in the airbrush but 90% of the time i use just water. It does the job most of the time :)

  • Excellent, I'm just a beginner but your work is trully amazing and your great to watch too and not scared to have a laugh, well done

  • @buddybonus10 Cheers mate ;)

  • whats the name of the paint .??? is water based paint good thing to start with ...iam a beginner

  • @hockeyfreak043 Water-based is a good place to start mate yes. You can blow yourself up with solvent paints lol and you have to have air extraction and all sorts because of the fumes. Water-based can be sprayed anywhere pretty much. The paints i use are "Auto Air" and "Wicked" by Createx. I also use E'Tac, Com-Art, Trident, the list goes on. In a nut shell though just any water-based airbrush paint will do ;)

  • @hprfire liquitex makes a clear coat i have been playing with it works well i dont think its ment for outside aplications just good for panels give it a go

  • Svee,

    Thanks for the inside look at wicked based true fire. I have played with solvent based paints for true fire but living in an apartment I can only play when the weather is perfect to work outside. May have to try wicked.

    Do you have any sugestions for clear coating panels or small projects? I don't have access to an HVLP gun, just my Iwata airbrushes.

    Thanks

    Tommy
