As my airbrushing career is still in it's infancy, I normally paint on whatever I have on hand. I work in construction so I bring home everything from large pieces of cardboard, to sheets of plexiglass, to big pieces of stainless steel and other metals. I enjoy painting on the different surfaces and exploring the unique effects that can be achieved (or not) while doing so, such as using candy paints over ground metals. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and techniques with us. I've learned a great deal from your videos.
Thanks Don! Surfaces can cost way more than paint. I certainly dont mind buying some fairly expensive boards and canvas but not everything needs it. I just paid 50 euros just for shipping and another 50 euros for the cost of the board from overseas to try out, and thats only 5 pieces. (114 USD shipped) So im definitely no stranger to cost of art materials. But playing around with various things makes you much more rounded. Sure i can paint realism, but its not all I can or want to do. Doing quick easy colorful things from time to time lets me kind of reset :)
Thanks Bill, you light up more skills! LOL after watching so many of your vids, not only you're the best airbrush artist I've seen, but your sense of humor cracks me up, I really appreciate your help and advice Bill.
awesome video, would you ever consider using the foam core or gator board for sellable art? do you think its too cheap? I was in Home depot and saw white board that was black on one side for a decent price. $8.60 for 24x48" would you paint on this stuff?
for sellable art.. not foam core. Now i have painted some temporary art ive charged for on them. But definitely i wouldnt paint stuff just to sell on it. But thats me. I would really have to see what board. But it would certainly have to be for indoor signage. I do some sellable art on aluminum composite panels. And as well as metal powdercoated panels or i should say I used to. Now most of my "paid for" art are comissions and usually on canvas. I do get comissioned for other things here and there. Including business logo signage every so often.
