Did you use TDD for the best outcome ? Reading a comment, you appear to have reverse-engineered the side "green stuff". I take it that you were fed up not being able to use your holder.
Great video! The first 2 are things that everyone SHOULD be taught about airbrushing when they start, but a lot of other videos seem to skip over. The mould line in the cup could definitely cause problems as any paint that's caught on it could slip off and clog the nozzle, so great catch there too! The customization thing is something I'm going to have to try out for myself. The trigger grip is great since I have a similar problem, but mine is caused by being an ogre of a human and my airbrush is just so tiny.
Thanks for watching James, yeah the first two I picked up from watching some videos and messing around with my brush but I haven't seen anyone try the last three. I'm actually super happy with how the trigger and the finger grip came out, I was a bit worried as I was doing it for the first time. But yeah I used to have trouble with my hand and finger cramping but now I'm much more comfortable using it.
So I was your 100th subscriber a day or two ago and I hope you get many many more. You give advice that seems to be missed by some other hobby channels, keep up the good work.
Cheers mate! Thanks for subscribing and watching, yeah I'm trying to approach things from a different angle and hopefully make some fun / useful videos
Once the needle is level with the nozzle tip, no extra paint will be supplied by pulling it back further (fluid dynamics), and the spray pattern is likely to be modified. Adjust the trigger limiter so the needle goes back no further than flush with the tip/opening of the nozzle, that'll make flow control more precise.
idk why people are being rude in the comments it’s your airbrush and no one is making others do these modifications, nor does everyone has 100 to spend on a high end airbrush 🙄 just because he’s not a 10 year airbrush pro doesn’t mean others might not find this useful
Yeah this airbrush is pretty cheap to replace, like 20 quid or less so it was fun to experiment with. When I upgrade I don't think I'll do the green stuff again unless I find my new airbrush uncomfortable
There should be a only for cheap generic airbrushes. The trigger tension adjuster is a feature not upgrade to btw. You can get sparmax and passche talon or badger airbrushes all under a 100 bucks worth every penny. These cheap one's are a nightmare to use that said the ones with 3 piece nozzles or self centering cone nozzles do work unlike the one shown in video. I've spent countless hour's on these cheap one's and good one's and hundreds of dollars. I wish could go back just skip straight past the cheap brushes straight to cheap branded one the difference is huge. But don't go out spend double to get a iwata there available everywhere in physical stores but that doesn't justify charging double to triple the competition. In short try not to need to do any of this get a good branded one that's on cheap end and lube it up good adjust trigger and use actual airbrush reducer/thinner and flow improver and you'll enjoy it instead of leaving it in box because it's easier to use a brush. If not miniature painting use airbrush paints also for miniatures/models the regular paints for it are fine enough already pigment wise.
Thanks for sharing your experience with cheaper airbrush brands. I have been looking into getting a sparmax airbrush since they are a legit airbrush maker and seem much better value than the iwatas etc. I've definitely had my frustrations with this cheap airbrush and I wish I could skip straight to a fancier airbrush but I have to budget things out, hopefully soon I'll make the upgrade though
I can tell by all the things you're saying and doing you don't know how to airbrush do you you're not familiar with the equipment you need to understand more about airbrushes before you hack them up

Thanks for your advices, specially the GreenStuff finger rest.

Ive been airbrushing for years and i never knew i could adjust the tension of the trigger, I just dealt with the cramps after long sessions lmaoo
I reckon your channel will grow quickly mate. Aussies represent!
Cheers Sam, yeah so many Aussies into minis which is great
What do you mean if you shake it more than 3 times ??
The thing you use on your trigger what is that?
It's just called 'green stuff', I still have it on my trigger but I've taken it off the sides of my airbrush
bravo
What’s up with the all the subliminal stuff?

Oh that's very interesting, I didn't know that. I'll try that out next time I use it. Thanks for the tip!
@@DavesMiniMenagerie its actually very similar to rocket science ;) its a pressurised nozzle
@@Ghryst I err didn't pay much attention during my fluid dynamics course. Whoops, never know when it could come in handy
Yo dawg, we heard you like green stuff, so we put green stuff on your airbrush so you can greenstuff while you airbrush
Haha yes I do indeed like me some green stuff
Did u move to the new flat?
Yeah, it is way nicer than the old one. Super happy about it
@@DavesMiniMenagerie sweet! Any friendly ghosts with unfinished business?
@@tiny-grimes haha no we are ghost free here thankfully
Did you put your girlfriend in the background reading for aesthetic purposes?
Did it for the vibe... but really she just didn't want to move
she's photoshopped in.
you can tell, cos artists cant afford girlfriends
Goal accomplished, aesthetics improved :)

Need more finger curl gains bruh
My finger is so weak, all it can do is press keys now
"weak software engineer fingers" 😂😂
Sadly it's true :(
I can tell by all the things you're saying and doing you don't know how to airbrush do you you're not familiar with the equipment you need to understand more about airbrushes before you hack them up
Pretty much yeah, it is fun to hack them up. I still like my little trigger modification and thumb and finger rests though
Buy proper gear to begin with...
But where is the fun in that? I think when I buy a nicer airbrush I'm going to do the same thing to that one as well
