So after a few days of use, I did find that the paints are scratching off somewhat easily, so to fully protect my paint job, I ended up spraying on a few coats of clear plastidip over the paint and it's totally protected now! amzn.to/2XMLEGL

Hey RC Girl!! Quick tip on your compressor! (Maybe somebody's clued you in already, but if not.....) You mentioned the stop-cock pressure release on the tank, but if you look on the bottom, there is another air release valve there. That is the one you really should mention to folks! That is the one you need to release after every use (in an appropriate area,) to expell the condensated water that builds up inside the tank itself! This will greatly improve both the machine's longevity and performance, as well as your paint's performance. I am a 30+ year remodel carpenter so I've got loads of experience with compressors. Hope this helps you and your fans! Cheers, and keep 'em wheels down!!

Wow! Amazing job you did there! 😎

I have just bought my first airbrush with the aim to paint up a new body for my RC, love what you did with the Capra, you have a good eye for color and design (IMHO). You are inspiring love your channel glad I found it.

Brilliant thanks for showing so professional looking.

Wow that turned out really well. Good job!

Your videos are just simply terrific. Please keep up the great work.

I've done a little weathering by hand, but your detailed, step-by-step approach makes airbrushing seem easy. I'm going to bookmark this video and review it a couple more times, before I take the plunge. I'm taking your closing comment to heart. Thanks for producing and posting this video. PS: I also appreciate your detailed listings in the commentary for all of the items you mention in the video. That's perhaps the most helpful feature of all.

Well, I just seen your post on Instagram today about airbrushing and asked what you was using then I come across your video today.. So awesome Great video thanks.. hope my first one turns out half as good as yours did.

A+++ Super cool.

You have done an amazing job on that bodyshell, You'll may want to add some ptf "plumbers tape" to the hose connector on your compressor to help stop any air leaks you may get in the future. When I change tips on my airbrush I use the needle loosely to help keep the nozzle straight when screwing in, Keep up the good work.

I really like my Masters airbrushes. They work well.

Nice paint job

I agree. My eyes dont see all that well and that has kept me from building one over the past 5 years. But this kit from Axial could change my mind on a build attempt.

I've been airbrushing my bodies for almost 2 years now and what I've learned whether it be Faskolor,Wicked/Createx, or Pro-Line paints is to not only wash and scuff the body,but I add an adhesion promoter, and also after my body as cured for about 24 hours I spray a coat of Krylon clear coat. I do one quick misting with it, then wait about an hour and do another coat and so on. Since I've been doing that I haven't had any scratching or chipping from my Pro-Line paints, or my Faskolor and Wicked paints.

I'm planning on painting my first custom rc body for my rustler. I originally was going to use the paint in the can but now am leaning towards airbrushing it instead. The way I was going to paint it was on the interior of the body and not the outside. Will the paint still scratch if I do it on the inside?

@FarmerFpv

@@rukia3219 Yes it will still scratch eventually. All Lexan RC bodies are painted from the inside except for hard-injected molded bodies. Which comes on most crawlers and rock bouncers.

Awesome first attempt 😁👍 very subtle.. Now for some Brigter Colours🎉😜

I know I'm a bit late to the comments on this video, but I just found your channel. I'm loving the content so far. Keep up the amazing work on the videos and the R/Cs. When/if you get more comfortable with airbrushing and decide to upgrade your airbrush, I would recommend the Iwata HP-CS as a great intermediate. I recently picked one up to replace my old Iwata Revolution and I'm really loving this new one so far. I use it for everything from hand tooled leather, artwork, and R/C bodies. It's capable of fairly fine detail work and has pretty good coverage for larger areas as well. 🤙🏼

nice job .i like

Good job 👍🙂

Looks awesome, wish my first one had looked like that! lol Just a couple of tips you may find helpful. If you put the pressure up to about 45 psi you can fine tune the airflow easier (on the fly) with the mac valve on the connector. Diluting some cleaner with water and adding enough to cover the bottom of the cleaning pot makes it a doddle to clean. And make sure to drain the compressor tank after each session, otherwise it can rust through :)

Cool Video 👍

Great tips thanks. You did a really great job on that. Quite an investment but the cost of those little Tamiya PS tins does add up !

I absolutely loved your video! I have a truck I am building and I am going to have my daughter paint my truck and she was thinking of how she's going to paint it.

I would look into Createx for the future. They have some unreal waterbase paints. My latest build with the 14k Gold leaf sheets were surrounded by waterbased Createx. Body came out great! definitely digging the design!

Thank you for not editing out using a lighter color before the final blue. I cannot be the only one that was wondering how it would work but you crushed it!!! Have you heard any positive feedback on the kits for doing make-up? Seems they may be good for detail work or maybe good for nothing. LOL Again thanks a bunch. A+++

Awesome video, I’ve been wanting to airbrush RC bodies for awhile now. I do airbrush plastic models but doing a RC body is a lot different process in my opinion. A lot of masking tape is used to make your designs and I cannot draw to save my life. I would had loved to had seen more of your masking and drawing. Plus did you pant this RC body on the inside or outside of the body because I’ve been told when painting a RC body you want to paint on the inside to protect the paint and I didn’t hear you say anything about that. But overall you did a awesome job and thank you for sharing this airbrush paint job.

@RCGirl

Yes good point. On lexan you typically paint the inside, except for the matte clear (if you want a matte look), that goes on the exterior

Nice work way better then just using spray cans

gravity feed is always better than siphon feed bcs you get more paint delivery with less pressure bcs gravity pulls the paint down int the gun vs high air volume to pull up the paint. Especially for automotive applications, literally all paint related factors can be applied to all applications. paint has a very universal standard. Even the same psi setting for the air brush is the SAME psi setting for a full size automotive professional spray gun.

Excellent video and well thought out and presented. One thing I would really like to put some emphasis on. Airbrushes is one of the places that money speaks loads. Please buy the best airbrush you can. There are some great Chinese airbrushes but here you definitely get what what you pay for. There are certainly some good Chinese airbrushes but they are the exception. The problem is that so many people just starting out will use one of the bad airbrushes and get really frustrated because they really are harder to brush good with and will give up because of frustration, myself included. Driving a good quality brush is really a great thing to do and you build confidence so much quicker. There are so many great airbrushes on the market right now. If you just really can’t right away spend some time researching the different Chinese brands, I own at least 4 of them, I did finally break down and buy a harder and steenbeck infinity CR+. I am not a snob because I use an H&S. Far from it. I’m a noob that wants to do his best and use the best tools to help achieve that. I still use my Chinese brushes but for any fine detail work I grab my H&S because I don’t have the I same talent to be able to do a killer paint job no matter what I use but need the help of a good tool to get close. I’m sure I’m going to get flamed for saying what I have but it’s just based on my own personal experience.

Liquid mask is awesome

Up that game, you can easily decant and spray Tamiya PS thru the airbrush. As it’s thinner already it will spray different than proline, less pressure (20psi) and a .35 tip.

Hey great vid. Just confused tho, u mentioned you wanted to outline the hood with black and that you were going to do it later, but how would this get done if the paint is already applied “in reverse order” i hope this question makes sense lol

If you 'prime' the area with a matte clearcoat - that will prevent some of the bleeding. As the clearcoat will bleed and seal that gap. But since it is clear - you won't notice it.

Watching the start of this i was thinking why would you add that much xtra work to painting the body because to me i have no skills of being an artist i would ruin more body panels than i could correctly paint so i kept watching and got my answer you already have really good artistic skills

Could the body paint work on painting models as well?

Bonjour, super vidéo, jolie Capra, vous avez mis du poids dans les roues ? merci

when masking off a body or panel you should make all of your cuts before painting and then just weed out one color section at a time. that way you dont have to try and go back after putting a color on and cut out the next section
