You are the first person I've ever seen actually put a mix ratio for paint. Most people say you want it to look a certain way... Thank you for putting it out there.

@@DocDoesGamingYT I would start my journey with a "fg zaku II". It's the perfect canvas to paint on. At just $5, it's a great way to practice. If you mess up no worries since it's so cheap. I would not buy it from Amazon they sell them at $10-$15 a piece. Plenty of online hobby shops sell them. Buy it in bulk (3-5 sets) so that you can offset the flat rate shipping cost.

I've recently (almost) finished a custom paint of the GM Sniper II, using spray cans by Mr Hobby. To give a bit more details, one spray can is (at my shop) a bit two times more expensive than the same color in a pot (almost 3 euros for a pot of paint and almost 8 euros for the spray can). There are a lot less colors for spray can than for regular paint. And my main concern with spray cans is how quickly they get empty. Espcially for primer, it took me two cans of primer to achieve the robot and shield (haven't done its weapons yet), and I only did one coat. It seems to me that spray cans are less durable than thinned paint from what I've seen. So yeah, Studio G is right, plan your color scheme people, don't rush as I did, or you'll lose time, effort and money (at least you get to learn the hard way). And as for the finnished result : I'm really satisfied with spray cans. Nothing to complain about.

I’ve only built kits as they were before and just got interested recently in making customs. This video was really helpful in giving info on what I should know before starting to paint~ 🤗👍

Funny thing is because I stated my gunpla hobby, I also got better at doing projects at my school like diorama and illustrations. So I am thankful for Studio G for helping me decide on buying my own airbrush set. Nice video btw

Tip 1. When you are cleaning your airbrush, increase the air pressure by ten to fifteen psi. Tip 2.use lint free scientific tissue wet with thinner to clean the inside of your paint cup and the outside of airbrush. 3. A 1:2 ratio of paint to thinner will help you achieve candy paint( and is my go to ratio in general) 4.apply photo etch parts with glue before you paint to ensure a strong hold( most hobby glues eat paint). 5. Use an explosion proof exhaust fan when painting with lacquer because the fumes are flammable( the fan is usually more powerful as well and will keep your environment fume free). 6. The distance you hold your part away from the spray will change the texture of the finished paint 7. Use a moisture trap as water will cause a splatter effect and ruin your finish( I do my painting near a fish tank so I use one on my tank and my gun) 8. Make sure you use the rapid drying thinner for metallic colors or the metal flakes will sink into the paint and effect the metallic look 9. Always use the slower drying thinner for non-metallic colors to ensure a perfect finish 10. Always use a static free brush on your parts to get rid of the static electric buildup from sanding that will attract dust to your paint job

I've recently gotten back into building kits. I haven't scribed or painted anything yet but really inspired by this guy to get started!

Dude, I'm a new Gunpla builder and your videos have been inspiring and helpful. Thank you SO much for putting the work in on this.

In regards to the airbrushing you can find a portable one for $50, it's a set that comes with the airbrush and a battery pack/portable compressor that's really good for practicing before committing to those really high end ones. Had mine for about two weeks and really love it.

Please do a more in depth video on both options. I’m new to gunpla and love your work. But as i am new I’m still catching up on your work but I’m in love with the IBO set your doing. Keep on doing your best work. It really shows that you love what you do!!

Thank you for the video, it was very useful. Hope you will pump out more detailed guides like this

Based on my experience with the airbrush, I recommend evacuating the pot with water before you put airbrush cleaner through your airbrush. A toothbrush soaked in airbrush cleaner is your friend, especially when spraying bright acrylic paints. If your airbrush starts to spatter when you spray, take the toothbrush and gently scrub the tip of the airbrush, give it a blast of air, then give it a test on something expendable. if it's still spattering loosen the chuck on the needle back the needle out just a bit and give it a blast of air (might want to turn the pressure up) and any chunks that may have accumulated in the brass tip should come flying out. Reseat the needle, gently scrub the tip of your airbrush and repeat the test. Other things to consider are using airbrush flow improver instead of thinner. Vellejo thinner has a tendency to speed up drying time, whereas Vellejo flow improver slows down drying time. Also, keep in mind that some airbrush cleaner might have some fumes. Vellejo airbrush cleaner is pretty mild in terms of the smell and does good work without over powering you.

@@StudioGundam Look up Next Level Painting on youtube, Kenny mostly paints Warhammer miniatures but his videos on how to troubleshoot issues with the airbrush are super helpful. Most of my experience comes from getting nonairbrush Vellejo paints and P3 acrylics to run through the airbrush so my advice might not be as helpful for someone that is using enamel or lacquer based paints.

Fantastic video as always!🔥

Yesssss. Finallyyyyy. THanks you so much. I love this video so much. Please make more videos about painting

Great video! Best way I can describe AB vs SprayCan is that SprayCan is like an automatic vehicle, while AirBrushing is like driving a manual. Also, I’ve found that spray canning leaves A LOT of overspray that doesn’t reach the model, (due to distance) making it a bit less efficient. Both are great options however!

Good job. Nicely done and Well said. I just got back on the hobby again. This helped.

Thank you for this video. Very inspiring.

Awesome video...thank you for sharing your knowledge.

I started with airbrush. It is quite expensive. I use lacquer base paints, Gaianotes are my favorite. I use some alclad paints every now and then. I am in the process of mixing my paints with the right amount of thinner. It was a pain to get the proper twist top squeeze bottles that work. A lot of the paints will take about 2-3 weeks to get to you, so doing all of your panel lines and adding the extras might keep you busy untill they arrive. It was a learning curve, however it has been worth it. Thank you so much for making these vids.

Thanks for a very informative video. I've been spraycan painting for a while, and thought that I'm on the cusp of graduating to airbrushing (mainly for the benefit of having more options on mixing custom colours). However, I'd love to see what's the true limitation of spraycans, so perhaps a spraycan tutorial before I formally graduate? Thank you. In the end, love to see either (cans or airbrush).

Great tutorial bro.

This was excellent. 🙏🏼

very helpful, an he was very humble person, what a men

pre-shading is an either-or thing with rattlecans, spray paint is generally very opaque so you're either using them exclusively to shade when priming, or you're just not shading with it at all. if you want to pre-shade with rattlecans you do it just to set up values, then you smooth out the transitions with a brush and then glaze on thin layers of transparent paint - also with a brush. this takes a very long time with small figures, I cannot imagine doing it on a gundam, lol

Hi, I'm a huge fan of your channel. I'd like to see more tips and details of spray-painting. Because I'm a beginner at spray-painting and I experienced stuff like the part becomes thick after paint so I had problems reassemble the parts back together. Also sometimes the spray just comes out really bad and turns out the can is almost empty. Stuff like those. Looking forward to your tips! Thanks!

Thank you! Definitely will next video! 😊

i think it would be a good idea to do both spray can and airbrush painting

Very epic im early!

In order to use a spray can correctly first do not shake the can instead swirl it in a circular motion so the bearing inside starts to rotate at the bottom when you shake a can it creates bubbles inside the paint then hold 3 to 4 inches away from parts then apply light layers with a left to right & vice versa hand motion.

vallejos air paint dont need to use thiner . ive been using that paint and its great , good colors easy to use, and easy to clean the airbrush after. You should try it, they have different paints for different projects i think they have mecha air witch is supposed to be for gundams and mecha. I use their paint of airplane models so i use model air .

I know I'm going to necro an old video by saying this but, you absolutely can control the flow of paint from a compressed can. Anyone who's ever tagged will know this. Remove the nozzle, use your finger. It's not something that can be picked up overnight and takes a boatload of practice but it's 100% possible. Airbrush is training wheels. Well...and less messy lol

Thanks for the advice. For Spray canning, what brand do you recommend. I’m either going for Tayima or Mr. Hobby.

thanks for helping me choose, can or airbrush. I chose an airbrush.

Brush painting for the next tutorial pls🙇🏻‍♂️

if you put a bucket with water next to your airbrush. You can put your airbrush into the water. Flush it, dry it and your good to go

Zenathol primers are about the only way I could think of pre shading I don’t know how that would work on Gunpla though, it works great on miniatures like Warhammer AoS/40K though.

really helpful! thanks for this! I just wanna ask one thing; if I wanna paint a kit with gold coat like phenex, do I need to sand it first or not?

This helped a lot. Other videos were informative but boring af and made it hard to focus. Idk what you're doing but keep it up.

How about Top Coating?

Hello, excellent video ....saludos!

Can you put into consider doing tutorial on painting set-ups? I think the preparation process is also important for the entire painting process.

@StudioGundam

4 жыл бұрын

Sure! In the in depth video cause this is a general one :)

if you turn a spray paint can upside down and spray some air out without it spraying any paint you can actually lower the psi inside the can and get a little bit more control if you know what you are doing, but with some practice I'm sure you can achieve some decent pre shading results. ill have to try it now lol you can also get other cool effects or change the feel of cans through the same technique.

gotta be careful because the lower the psi the greater the chance of sputtering a can and getting little droplets all over your project which may not be the desired results.
