I bought an airbrush last week at the local hobby shop, now I'm addicted. I've watched several airbrush videos and this guy seems the best at conveying the most useful tips and tricks.
I've had an airbrush now for a month and i recently found your videos. They are super helpful and to my surprise your shop is only about 30 minutes from my house! Thanx for the videos!
Ryan,really like the way you give honest ,clear,easy to understand advice (opinions). It is very selfless of you to put up all these videos of tips and techniques. Very classy. People who have great talent and are willing to share it with others or rather teach others for purely wanting to see others do well is very commendable. Great job!
Another retired engineer Ryan, your vid taught me the importance of not relying on templates. Watching videos like yours' inspires me to better my knowledge and put more practice in. TANK Uuuu, fae 'Bonny Scotland' PS "fae" translates as 'from'
Man, your advise and the way you relate it to people is so clear and informative! really, keep it up man! Im just starting up in this industry and.. yes, all that I know, technically with an airbrush, Ive picked it up on youtube watching videos of you and some other very talented people! Keep it up!!
I LOVE WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT STENCILS, i'VE BEEN AIRBRUSHING PROFFESSIONALLY for over 20 years and have just recently started using stencils. They are very helpfull but if you rely on them I think you should just go to making decals. Sorry about the cap lock lol, thank you for your humble advice!
Wow! I’m just starting out airbrushing and I have found two people I can actually listen to their videos.Thanks . You are easy to listen too and have good information. Thank you for not using profanity with the information you share. I will look for more of your videos.
I know people, and your modesty, the heart you put into this video and love for improvement and progress just makes me give you most mad respect ever, brotha! One day I might send a project for you to judge. Greetings from Latvia.
Just starting... got my first airbrush this week. Best advice I've herd so far on starting. I'm just starting to look around and I noticed alot use stencils, great advive on not depending on stencils I look forward to going thur more of your videos. Thanks for sharing......
Hi Ryan, very impressed with what you are doing with your airbrush tutorials. You have an impressive knowledge of different techniques, with a unique approach to painting - as you alluded to, fundamental draughtmanship and knowledge of composition and perspective is still required, and even a slick instrument like an airbrush, will not disguise that fact .
I'm so glad I found you. I'm new to this form of art. I just no so little about the equipment. I hope to learn as much as I can, and always grow in this industry. thank you for your time.
this guy is awesome for all of his videos and giving his expert tips and advice. ive been airbrushing for a little over a year and I love it and I cant get enough of this guys videos. thx for all your videos and advice bro keep up the badass work
esteban steven Yes, this guy is awesome. I love the airbrush as well. For years I was struggling with a Badgers siphon fed brush and a cheap compressor. I almost quit and then I purchased the Iwatta Eclipse. What a difference.
Hey man. Just found your channel and am currently learning about airbrushing myself. Wanted to say that your videos are REALLY useful! I know this is 5 years old now, but I am very much enjoying them all. Hope you are well!
I am considering getting back in to airbrushing, I have been out of it for about 16 years. It's funny I have about 35 airbrushes and 3 finishing guns and 1 h v l p sprayer. there just sitting there waiting to get messy. I turned to photography for my artistic release. Painting with an airbrush is so fun.
Just for clarification, there are 'open-topped cups' for side-feed airbrushes. I use a side-feed Iwata and am able to do gradual shading by adding a couple drops to the open-topped cups. Thanks for all your efforts.
Thank you for the tips Ryan. As an artist new to airbrushing I found your advice very useful. And will probably save me a lot of time and money and grief if I stick with products that a professional uses. So sharing the information to help people like me reflects your character. I bought a Masters system (I just wanted to know if this was something that I would enjoy). Not too expensive, but within a week I was researching whats the best airbrushes on the market. There are many, but decided on the Iwata Eclipse even before I saw your video. Your tips on paints answered my next question, invaluable. My art teacher alway said to try and buy the best products that you can afford when learning. What did I get out of your video.....Certainty. So keep the video's coming Ryan for Newbies like me.
where have you been hiding? Damn Ryan, you are good, and do very good instructional videos. I am "intermediate" level, but always looking for good tips & tricks! Thanks!!
Free tip Ryan: always have a spare needle, specially if you already know that you will eventually break the one you're using! Great video, keep it up! ;-)
I have recently gotten rid of my VERY ancient Badger and Pashe Airbrushes I used for madeling and cake (YES Cake) decorating as a young man, but have decided to pick up new Airbrushes in the form of HP-CS and HP-CP and move what I have been doing in Photoshop with graphics and Race Sim Skining to the real world. I can only echo Ryans statement about practise, it IS crucial to learn the basic strokes. It really is a case of suck it and see, to try things and learn what works and what doesn't.
Great info as always! Never tried Standox, but I've used tons of Kustom Shop supplies before and they're quite nice. Their base colors cover faster than HOK. I also find the kandies to be cleaner with a lot of dept in fewer coats. But you should really try the Matrix System stuff. They match all or almost all of House of Kolor's line of paint. It covers fast, reduces very well, and can be activated. Try the MS-42 and AG 40 clears... damn they're nice.
Ryan, great vids, very informative and helpful advice. One comment, when I'm taking a break from painting, I watch a lot of videos on airbrushing, but one thing that may be apparent to others but having a hard time with is painting on dark backgrounds. I have had a hard time finding is painting on black or dark surfaces. I am trying to learn how to 'blend' my artwork onto surfaces such as a black tank and not have them look like they are stuck on or 'framed'. It would be a big help to see some videos of how you get your artwork on dark backgrounds, such as a motorcycle tank to look as if the tank is part of the artwork. Keep up the excellent videos I really appreciate all your knowledgeable advice.
GREAT ADVICE. Improve your freehand skills. Always improve your skills,no matter what they are. Really appreciate you sharing your knowledge and ideas with everyone. One thing I heard you say in another video that Coast Airbrush says they are the only place to get small containers of paint. Not giving CA the knock or anything but tcpglobal carries 2&4 oz bottles of HOK,Custom Color and many more. Just thought I would throw that out there so you knew
Great video Ryan, well done. I found 08:26 particularly interesting, especially as I've never thought about it seriously before, and now want to experiment without stencils. One annoying thing about ADHESIVE stencils is that unless you've got an old bit of CS10 lineboard kicking about, even the low tack film can tear, or feather paper, or artboard, unless someone can hopefully correct me on that matter.
Nice work you are doing, im just starting un this about 3 monta ago, but i had it on my mind cince 10 years ago And now that i found your help woulbe easy thanks and see you
Very good videos glad I found them . A credit to your profession and thanks for sharing looking to start myself and advise on equipment is always good .
You rock,subscribed. Everybody talking about milk consistency... You went much far with your explanation about reducing colors and this video was very good in general. I love it.
Ryan I have to just say this you are my role model right now... I want to do just what you want to do, paint cars and trucks at an autobody shop. Im 13 and im not one of those kids who want to stay young I want to work at an autobody shop right know... So if theres any advice you can give to me when it comes to painting cars and trucks... You can make it a video if want I don't really care just give me some advice.. Keep up the great work!!!!!!!!!
could you please tell me why you said createx is not good on metal?? i have been useing it for a few year's now with no real problems...your work is grate, hope to see you post more of it..thanks
Ryan thank you so much for your videos, you have really helped me out being I am a beginner.I have done airbrush work and purchased DVD's but you really cleared up a lot of things that I had questions about. Could you maybe do a video on prep, like for a golf cart or plastic bodies for cars or side by side ATV's. Keep up the good work and thanks again for sharing, I have learned so much from you...
thanks for the tips on spitting, i believe the same with stencils i only use them for border and holding a piece to make a hard line. what is a good acrylic enamel clearcoat forthe createx? i use duplicolor clear enamel but im sure there is something better that wont destroy the paint work
I appreciate the tips, I am about 51 years old and can draw anything and have fooled around with Airbrushes. I am now retire and would really like to take it up to do some friends cars and stuff. I heard you say you took a class in Vegas. Since I am just out side Vegas Can you recommend any Airbrush classes I could take in Vegas now to help me. Thanks Kurt
great advice bro, i been using a badger 200 detail is a bottom feed single action but i need to upgrade to that eclipse you got it looks like it works really good! mine starts to trip when i need to get down to really sharp details,, i do alot of motorcycles,helmets,cars etc, and yes reducer is your best friend ! i got a few videos in my channel if you have some free time let me know what youi think, you got some really good videos and are really helpful with tips
Ryan how's it going? I purchased the iwata eclipse after talking with you and it is worth the price. When I first started airbrushing I freehanded everything because I felt like people who used stencils was cheating and not true artist. Now that I've been airbrushing for about 4yrs and from talking with other airbrush artist I found that you need to use every technique to compete with today's competition. I recently went back to freehanding and will be posting some video's soon. Thanks!
from hong kong you can get a veda wd180 for 33$ its a copy of the moron c+. its a fraction of price and does feel a bit cheap in the hand but its works as good as they are the guys that actually manufacture the airbrush for iwata.
G, day Ryan, Mate, please keep up your Awsome advice !! Its people like you that make our world a better place, you give away your knowledge on here for free and for that I cant thank you enough, Cheers mate :)
Couldn't agree more about reducing your paint. I was always leary to do so, and my airbrushes always got clogged up quick. I've been reducing more lately, in the cup, and it's working better.I've never heard of the paint you use, sounds like you're saying Standox. Is this right, I'd like to try it.
Nice advice! I've been airbrushing for a few years... And I'm definitely the T-Shirt guy you kept referring to, lol... But I definitely want to expand onto hard surfaces such as, auto, helmets, etc. For those types of work, what kind of preparation goes into the surface? For example, are you supposed to sand down helmets, and if so... With what?
Thanks for the tips, looking to get in to air bruising and spray gun painting. Therefore, my question is how about the compressor? What is a good air compressor that can handle both an airbrush and a spray gun???
Thanks for the video! I know what you mean about enjoying others get better. I do many different crafts (including cutting my own stencils!) and paint in watercolour. I share a lot of what I do on my youtube channel and blog. Getting an airbrush soon (gift) to add to my arsenal of crafting..:)
@BerserkCustomPaint Thanks for the fast reply! I'm working on paper, so there's no base coat. Perhaps that's the issue because the paint is totally stuck to the paper fibres, and can't just rub off. I saw in your other video that you used a blade to scratch back, so I'll give this a try too, although maybe that won't work well on paper either.
Great video man. Allot of really usefull tips. thx... And I agree about the stencils. The are a great tool, but that´s it...a tool to help in the creating of a artwork.
I have a problem with my Badger and hope you can help: When I pull the trigger backwards no paint will come out for about 2 millimeters. Pull further and suddenly to much paint comes out.(Spider, argh) Also a little paint will spitt out on release of the trigger. Thanks much for help!
What model number of both Iwata Eclipse and the Micron your using? Reason why I asked is because I was looking at the this site that sales them and they had at least four or five Microns with different serial numbers on them and I don't know the one that you use.
Oh, and I should point out that while this is going to cost a lot more right now, it will also save you money over the same number of needles by not having to spend more on shipping
Hi Ryan amazing talent you have! You said that you have done brush painting before you got into airbrushing. My art has been based on Charcoal and I want to take a crack at airbrushing. Everyone is different but I am curious to know how hard the transition was from a brush to a air brush.
I totally appreciate your videos and since im so green in this type of art I need all the help i can get your videos not only inspire me but have taught me a thing or to aswell keep up the good work and i will be continuing to learn from your skillz. I have just finished my first project ..my second time using an air brush. I hope you can have a look ..and give me some feed back...cheers..its under
hi Ryan Townsend, hat you Day abou mig ung in a Bolton feed or side feed its not totally true,but I will give you that its a lot harder and I also use my own paints they are a acrylic paints easy to cut with Sather or alcohols
Just watched ur video...got a ?...I've been recently wood carving ducks and would like to give it a try at air brushing to give the colors a feather look ....the ducks aren't detailed with feathers. Maybe later when I improve on painting...water or oil which u recommend..also which air compressor u like.... first time...but dont mind getting something good...ur a good instructor...jeff from alta iowa
Thanks :) Been airbrushing 20+ years and very much enjoy your work and videos!

speaking as a 10 year veteran teacher, you are the real deal brother!
I'm starting airbrush projects and I'm thankful for your advice. Once I complete some stuff, I'll share.

I really got alot out of what you said. I fell into the stencil bit. Now i try free hand as much as possible
Wrench
Ryan, Great video and information! I can't wait to go and cruse your other videos. You are very natural in front of the camera. Thanks again
I am considering getting back in to airbrushing, I have been out of it for about 16 years.

Awesome video. Going to try my skills for the first time painting an old motorcycle. Glad I found your videos. Your work looks great by the way.
I had the same trouble with my micron, get a Sharpenair kit. It repairs the needle back to original.
Thank you for the tips Ryan. As an artist new to airbrushing I found your advice very useful.

I have recently gotten rid of my VERY ancient Badger and Pashe Airbrushes I used for madeling and cake (YES Cake) decorating as a young man, but have decided to pick up new Airbrushes in the form of HP-CS and HP-CP and move what I have been doing in Photoshop with graphics and Race Sim Skining to the real world.
I can only echo Ryans statement about practise, it IS crucial to learn the basic strokes.
It really is a case of suck it and see, to try things and learn what works and what doesn't.

thanks for the tips ryan.....keep the vid's comin mate.....well done
you are a great artist , keep telling it like it is
Good work keep it up...people love detail
You're a great guy . Thanks for your time and lesson
great advice bro, i been using a badger 200 detail is a bottom feed single action but i need to upgrade to that eclipse you got it looks like it works really good! mine starts to trip when i need to get down to really sharp details,, i do alot of motorcycles,helmets,cars etc, and yes reducer is your best friend ! i got a few videos in my channel if you have some free time let me know what youi think, you got some really good videos and are really helpful with tips
Ryan how's it going? I purchased the iwata eclipse after talking with you and it is worth the price. When I first started airbrushing I freehanded everything because I felt like people who used stencils was cheating and not true artist. Now that I've been airbrushing for about 4yrs and from talking with other airbrush artist I found that you need to use every technique to compete with today's competition. I recently went back to freehanding and will be posting some video's soon. Thanks!
Cute tips and a white paint is a good way to go just like the eraser try it try it
Love your attitude! 👍
Respect in big R :) Labai reikalinga tokia informacija, ypač tokioje šalyje kaip Lietuva. Keep going!
from hong kong you can get a veda wd180 for 33$ its a copy of the moron c+. its a fraction of price and does feel a bit cheap in the hand but its works as good as they are the guys that actually manufacture the airbrush for iwata.
great videos dude. hope to see more in the future. keep it up!
G, day Ryan,
Mate, please keep up your Awsome advice !!
Its people like you that make our world a better place, you give away your knowledge on here for free and for that I cant thank you enough,
Cheers mate :)
thanks, you are a great artist. I am just starting out.
Couldn't agree more about reducing your paint. I was always leary to do so, and my airbrushes always got clogged up quick. I've been reducing more lately, in the cup, and it's working better.I've never heard of the paint you use, sounds like you're saying Standox. Is this right, I'd like to try it.
Nice advice! I've been airbrushing for a few years... And I'm definitely the T-Shirt guy you kept referring to, lol... But I definitely want to expand onto hard surfaces such as, auto, helmets, etc. For those types of work, what kind of preparation goes into the surface? For example, are you supposed to sand down helmets, and if so... With what?
hey.i just clean my createx with water mix a few drop's of rubbing alcohol some time's but that should work
Thanks for the tips, looking to get in to air bruising and spray gun painting. Therefore, my question is how about the compressor? What is a good air compressor that can handle both an airbrush and a spray gun???
Thanks for the video! I know what you mean about enjoying others get better. I do many different crafts (including cutting my own stencils!) and paint in watercolour. I share a lot of what I do on my youtube channel and blog. Getting an airbrush soon (gift) to add to my arsenal of crafting..:)
nice video mate and thanks for sharing your knowledge!
@BerserkCustomPaint Thanks for the fast reply! I'm working on paper, so there's no base coat. Perhaps that's the issue because the paint is totally stuck to the paper fibres, and can't just rub off. I saw in your other video that you used a blade to scratch back, so I'll give this a try too, although maybe that won't work well on paper either.
i really want to see this picture done..u gotta make of video of it
Great video man. Allot of really usefull tips. thx...
And I agree about the stencils. The are a great tool, but that´s it...a tool to help in the creating of a artwork.
I have a problem with my Badger and hope you can help: When I pull the trigger backwards no paint will come out for about 2 millimeters. Pull further and suddenly to much paint comes out.(Spider, argh) Also a little paint will spitt out on release of the trigger. Thanks much for help!
Thaks so much bro, the information was very usefull. I am new in this kind of art, thanks once again
What model number of both Iwata Eclipse and the Micron your using? Reason why I asked is because I was looking at the this site that sales them and they had at least four or five Microns with different serial numbers on them and I don't know the one that you use.
nice advice ryan, so helpful to me
Oh, and I should point out that while this is going to cost a lot more right now, it will also save you money over the same number of needles by not having to spend more on shipping
Hi
You are a wonderful working.
Q: What your advice to the artist never used airbrush. What steps?
Hi Ryan amazing talent you have! You said that you have done brush painting before you got into airbrushing. My art has been based on Charcoal and I want to take a crack at airbrushing. Everyone is different but I am curious to know how hard the transition was from a brush to a air brush.
I totally appreciate your videos and since im so green in this type of art I need all the help i can get your videos not only inspire me but have taught me a thing or to aswell keep up the good work and i will be continuing to learn from your skillz.
I have just finished my first project ..my second time using an air brush. I hope you can have a look ..and give me some feed back...cheers..its under
hi Ryan Townsend, hat you Day abou mig ung in a Bolton feed or side feed its not totally true,but I will give you that its a lot harder and I also use my own paints they are a acrylic paints easy to cut with Sather or alcohols
Just watched ur video...got a ?...I've been recently wood carving ducks and would like to give it a try at air brushing to give the colors a feather look ....the ducks aren't detailed with feathers.
