Hey buddy! Thanks for taking the time to make this :-) but it's supposed to inspire you by being a cool looking piece, not make you feel unworthy! So please don't worry about that - it's super robust (you might have seen - we've run one over with a car and it was completely fine!) and we'd like you to work that airbrush as hard as possible - that's what we made it for! As Vincent can Gogh said "If you hear a voice within you say you cannot paint, then by all means paint and that voice will be silenced." Great advice that echoes down the ages to help us even today!

Great video. Thank you. I love my H&S Ultra 2024. I had been using the Gaahleri airbrushes but this one was a huge leap in helping me with my airbrushing.
“I felt unworthy”… haha I said that too. It is so well engineered. The Ultra 2024 is such a huge step up from my very good Master airbrush but in a totally different league. Nice video. I recommend spending a little time learning the names of the parts and techniques so that it is less confusing to others, especially new users. Keep it up!
@@TattooedTabletop just pinch the tip with your finger tips. As you pull back on the trigger and the needle goes in pinch tighter to cover the hole more. It's really all I've ever done. Might get a speck of paint on your finger tips but it'll be fine. Sponge is a good idea to clean the tip on the fly as you paint.
@@jc7997aj: does not work with all nozzle/needle caps, only with removable needlecaps (for Badger's 100 series you'll have to use an moistened earbud for that to work), design differences. 😮
You're not unworthy mate. Great innovative airbrush. I use older H&S, Paasche, Sparmax products and H&S are definitely the easiest to use and live with. Plus with their 2024 range continuous improvement and listening to users is their forte. I've been airbrushing on and off since the 1970s, been model making all that time and I still make mistakes - usually when I go off piste and try and new type of paint for something it's not intended for. Yes H&S brushes look superb - works of art - but they are a robust tool for the job too (although I treat them as precision instruments tbh). Enjoy✌️😊💜👍
Appreciate it! Yeah I've been airbrushing, but mostly for priming and zenithaling purposes. I definitely need to start utilizing this brush for more things and really get some practice in!
I have an H&S Evolution 2024 and the needle cap comes off if you want to back feed and mix in the paint cup. I do not know if this is a feature on the Ultra. But you do not need the cap to paint it is just to protect the tip and without it on it is easier to deal with cleaning up tip drying. Enjoy your new airbrush!
@@TattooedTabletop I am fairly surprised that you could prime straight from the bottle. Yesterday I used my Ultra 24, Vallejo Gloss Black in a mix of 3 parts primer to 1 part Thinner+Flow Improver at 20 PSI. I had near constant dry tip after just a few seconds of spraying in short bursts
I only have one question, HOW THE HELL DID YOU PRINT THE MODEL THAT YOU DID THE PRIME? xDDD i mean those wings..... holy cow ! its awesome ! and the airbrush looks so good !
Thank you so much! I mostly did gradients of white on the wings with my airbrush and made sure to leave a little space between the colors and finally airbrushed some contrast paint 😁

I'll absolutely go through your channel and watch some more tutorials and pick up some more tips! Thank you for the comment! ❤️

Thank you for checking it out! I definitely am using it more and I am feeling better with it!

Yeah, I definitely need to learn the proper lingo! Appreciate the support!
Hey. To get the backflow, try putting one of those soft triangular makeup sponges and block the nozzle with it. It works pretty well with my airbrush.
Oooo that's actually a solid idea! I saw someone was selling a separate plastic piece, but I imagine the sponge is much easier! Lol
@@TattooedTabletop Glad I could help.

@@TattooedTabletop It'll all come good - give it time, remember, we learn by making mistakes ✌️😊💜👍
Love the colours on the wings
Thank you! I had to really mess around with it, but finally figured it out lol
nice job. I have an Ultra 2024 also. Great airbrush!
It really is! I definitely need to practice more with it! Lol

Thanks for the tip! 🤘
Thinning the paint down so much isnt a problem really. I do that often with a PSI around 15 to 18 and build the color up on the model slowly
Fair enough. In my case I accidentally thinned it down to essentially dirt water so it wasn't even really layering lol 🤣

Soooo, is this a special edition? I just ordered one and only saw a chrome version.
Yes this one was from Squidmar, but both are functionally the exact same 😁🤘
gross squidmar
One day I'll use the airbrush to go ham on some of my Space Marines lol
