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

Got both of thoes airbrushes at the reccomendation of barbatos rex and he has not steeted me wrong. My only gripe- which was self inflicted....is that I left some cleaning agent in the cup and didnt empty it for a few days. It did corode the chrome pff the insode of the cup. So be careful, but you know what? You get more with the kit! So thanks neoco: for being smarter then me and providing spares.

@@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.

@ecMonify Год назад

6:05 a "zenithal" application means you only apply paint from above, like the sun when it's at its zenith (straight above). i feel like the word has become just another buzzword people throw in without knowing what it means. sorry, i just had to point it out as it kinda bothers me :D a lot of people use the word "drybrushing" instead of "overbrushing" too, which are two very different techniques :P anyways, great video as always :)

@ReverendPONT Год назад

I like my airbrush setup overall compared to brush painting. I use mine for base coating and zenithal but my needle size is 3mm so it plugs a lot. I ordered this one and hoping the 5mm is am improvement so I can start priming with it as well. I say go for it, especially if you don't like painting as much as the model building like I do.

@ecMonify Год назад

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

Do you think it will last for 6 months/a year? -Presumably it comes with a US plug type, as it is shipped from there. 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?

@MediocreHobbies Год назад

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.

Well damn. Great tip thanks!

@jaanikaapa6925 Год назад

So you would recommend this as a atarter? 70 euro or so with the compressor. Very nicely priced.

@MediocreHobbies Год назад

Yes I would indeed. Great way to get started.

I am looking at buying my first airbrush and your video makes that one look really good! as you said I don't want to spend hundreds on an expensive one to start, but how loud is the compressor?? I have young children and 90% of my painting is done once they are in bed.... that's what has kind of always held me back from buying one

@MediocreHobbies 11 месяцев назад

It’s a good compressor for that as it’s only on a but when your spraying it idols so fast and makes no noise when that’s happening. But I does make some noice so I can’t say for sure.

@danax8977 11 месяцев назад

@MediocreHobbies ah that sounds really good, so it's not constantly on making the noise only when spraying. Thank you for the reply, its really helpful 😁

Not airbrush related, but where did you find those 3D Flesh Tearer logos?

What’s the compressor like 7 months down the track?

@MediocreHobbies 4 месяца назад

I’m going back to a bigger one. It’s still really good but the max being about 30 psi closer to 25. Just isn’t cutting it sometimes.

@TheMichaellathrop Год назад

Did you notice an appreciable difference between the two of them?

@MediocreHobbies Год назад

Not really. The one you see me use for the video is the better one apparently and feels a little better in my hand. But as for results it seams just as good.

@Cnute Год назад

Would you use a spray booth, or do you think that is overkill ?

@MediocreHobbies Год назад

I don't bother! I don't do enough of it and also don't have the space! If you knew you were going to do a lot of airbrushing it might be worth it but it does take up a lot of space

@@MediocreHobbies would you not worry about inhaling the paint ?

@tonyennis1787 8 месяцев назад

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.

@MediocreHobbies 8 месяцев назад

True!

What is with that inhaling tick?😅

@MediocreHobbies 5 месяцев назад

Honestly I have no idea. Only happens when I’m recording never on my Normal day to day. It drives me crazy so I have no idea how you all put up with it lol

@Fortunes.Fool. Год назад

I just bought my first cheap airbrush before you posted this, thanks for making a video on it. You have a weird way of posting videos after I buy something, it’s starting to get suspicious… 😮

@MediocreHobbies Год назад

I hacked into your email account and plan all my content based on your order confirmation emails, nothing to be suspicious about 😂

@Bunyip_Studios Год назад

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.

Cheers pal. And no I don’t use badgers brushes.
