"Javier Soto, one of the world's best airbrush artists"? a bit modest, I feel. Thank you so much for letting us watch and learn. Learning so much. please keep making art and videos. You are raising the bar for excellence in the world of art.
Wow! I just stumbled on this video and im so blown away. Javier this is amazing, I've seen photo realism mostly with paintings and other mediums but to capture this with airbrush is truly amazing :) I'm officially a fan!
Fantastico! I'm not an artist but I love covering up any kind of blank canvas with an airbrush. This was simply inspiring to watch. Your moderation is 'on top of it'! Thanks.
I cannot believe 18 people disliked this video. Javier, you're my new professor. I noticed you paint with the air cap off and have to clean the tip quite often. I'm surprised that .18 needle can take all that. I guess I'm asking how you clean the needle the way you do; never could catch a good shot of it in the video.
Thomas Hanson Hi Thomas. Thanks for the kind words. This airbrush is an Iwata hi-line from the Kustom series. I believe it's a .3mm needle/nozzle setup. This Kustom series airbrush comes with a large cup which helps keep the paint from splashing out of the cup when I practice my bad habit of working without the lid. As far as cleaning cleaning the tip I usually blast some paint to wet the tip and then a quick wipe with my finger nail.
It really makes you wonder about the present world doesn't it. A man takes time out of his day to give you something for free and mofos gotta hate and thumbs him down. Thanks for the tips buddy i appreciate it thumbs up!
Stunning. I'm practician myself and you sir have a talent..I've seen many examples and styles of work, but only a couple who achieve the detail you do ,,respect
Hello Javier, You may not remember me, but my name Is Jimi Sutton and I last saw you and Jonathan In Charlotte, N.C. I've done lot of work since I last saw you guys and I still want to say thank you for all your help! I keep up with you and Jonathan, so continue to do what you do! Tell Jonathan hello for me and maybe I'll catch up with you guys sometimes Soon! Lol Jimi
An outstanding presentation Javier. I learned so much in just this short time. Thanks for sharing, obviously you have done your homework on anatomy as well.
Awesome video finally went ahead and got my airbrush I love drawing been doing it my whole life figured it's time to start another medium very excited to start and your videos are very helpful thanks!
I've never before watched a step by step video clearly go out of my reach so fast, as I watch the air brush move I couldn't believe that picture was coming out of that airbrush, at one point it almost looked like time lapse photography, amazing! Now tell me about the white pencil.
What color of flesh tone is used? The closest I can come is using a transparent sand color from Createx and a mixed Orange from a primary red and yellow (both opaque) added to it.
Sir may I say sir your work Stunning bravo Sir Iv'e never yried ABiing bI shall give it ago and I'll myself a cheapdual Action I am very pleased one can mix Media because I only have one hand I was a little concerned but I'll give it ago certainly I hope I'll be able to use normal Acrylics as long as I thithe paint down enough.Well done again sir excellent work You sir are a GENUINE ARTIST...
well u deserve all my attenction and the best compliments SUPER!! i decided to follow u again and again..nice job watching u u also relaxed me down :) need no more man u got a Miland follower..ciao!!
Awesome technique. I just picked up an iwata hpcp with a sprint compressor. I've never airbrushed before. What paint would you recommend that looks similar to oils (final result realism) but not as harmful with the use of mediums etc. I have tried gouache and I do like the results thus far.
Mr Soto, this was very interesting to watch and informative thank you. I have just started to learn to airbrush and to be honest I'm rubbish. I have bought a infinity CR Plus and it's amazing, but my talent lets me down as I really can't draw. Can you please tell me a good paint to use with it as ready mixed paints vallerio feels to weak?. I also found the Artwork behind you AMAZING.
Hi! Amazing work! I would like to try airbrush. I have very experience in painting and i love hyperrealism (brush and pencils). Can you recommend an airbrush and especially a compressor? (Not too expensive) Thanks!!
Hi ,& so sorry to pester you with another question Javier,but I have tried to ask you on another of your Instructional video`s but had no reply. What`s the make of the Easel you use in the Rihanna`s face airbrushing video please? I`ve tried to find one but cannot see one anywhere on sale .
Hi , Javier can I ask you what is the color your doing the eye with initially, it looks like a Sepia color ? Its not a mix is it , if so what is the mix please ? Not been airbrushing that long , I use Wicked illustration paints with a Badger Xtreme Patriot 105 .
looks stunningly AMAZING to me. Can`t see any need for "pickyness" . The human body often goes against, if there is such a thing as "normality". I think this Artist has done a superb job in the portrayal of AN EYE.
The critics are often people who think they can Airbrush, but in reality, are just plain jealous ,or maybe they are pissed off because no one praises their efforts as much as people praise yours . To me ,this shows how UN professional THEY are ,when they find it necessary to criticize some one else`s work .Or was it the acknowledgement of the above headline that says "one of the world's best airbrush artists" that caused them to throw their toys out the Pram/stroller ? And I also wonder if they are "good enough YET " to have any tutorial DVD`s out ?
