#vallejo #tipsandtricks #etsy - Jak na to + styl
Back to the hobby in the last 6 months. I just found your videos and am enjoying myself at 63 years old. I live in Minnesota, yet am from Boston... so the accent is like home.
Welcome back my friend
My spray booth is a bathroom. Exhaust fan, some cardboard, some r6 flex duct and some filters I take from work, hvac tech
Mine is old dryer ducting, an old desk fan and a large cardboard box.
@@sahhull a man of genius
The best informative hobby channel there is, your work is very much appreciated and i've learned so much!
Thank you my friend, it's much appreciated
Looks like all the Pace booths use the same size filter. I was just complaining about what a pain it is getting new filters for it all the time. This is definitely a good idea.
Colored glue so you can actually see where the glue went? If that isn't a palm to the forehead moment I don't know what is... how did we get along without it for this long? Thanks again for doing all this research and reviewing of these products... YOU ROCK!!!
Great video, thanks.
Sometimes I find the liquid mask hard to use for fine areas or if you didn't get good initial coverage because adding more usually pulls up the first coat. One alternative I use for masking is Elmer's school glue. I added some to a couple of squeeze dropper bottles and mixed in a few drops of water soluble food coloring so it shows up better against contrasting base colors (I have an orange, a green, and a blueish one). The viscosity is really good, you can add more on top of dried areas, and it peels right off when it's dry or you can use water if you need to.
That glue trick is really genius. I use .... (can't remember the brand) liquid mask for R/C bodies. It runs through an Airbrush very easily. It really needs to be clear cause of the way (reverse) you paint the bodies.
Is that the same as Elmer’s white glue? Or is school glue a different product?
@@Syclone0044 They're probably really similar but I find the school glue isn't as strong and peels off easier
Does that work with lacquers?
@@danzo5521 yeah pretty much anything. It sticks mostly to itself so it doesn't pull up the undercoat
A little ball of blutac/posterputty will take hold of the liquid mask without using a shap thing, a pencil eraser will work to. Thats the same airbrush that StudioG collabed with them to do a red
These videos help so much in me picking up things for my work bench!
I absolutely love all your insights on products and the paints. Keep up the great work.
Thank you Theron 👍
Once again, thank you for the demonstration. Sometimes I go with the whole idea other times I tweak them but thank you so much.
I bought, last night (Thursday), the new Gaahleri spray gun! The "STUDIOG'S SWALLOWTAIL"!!! I should get it in a few days. It will be a great addition to my bench!
I don’t know if this would be applicable with plastic/models, but I’m a foamsmith and I have learned from another maker than table mustard makes a great paint mask. I use it for battle damage, putting down my silver/ metals base, then mask the scratches/ nicks etc with the mustard then paint my top coat. Mustard rubs right out leaving the scarred “metal” below. Dirt cheap and on hand, lol. ( I doubt this will work for highly detailed spaces, but worth a test). Love the channel, you have really stepped up my paint game!!
Hey, it might be bit silly
But I'm using alot of filters for a cigarette, like for rollies. It's 1 dollar for a 120 of them, they clean, tight, and absorb lots of moisture and liquid, if you need to stow some tools, they kinda act like a gel balls
Wiping blades or needle with it make it less expensive than magic eraser, or using on paint table for many uses
I mean, it's one of those cheap tools nice to have on a bench
Thanks
Love the use of filter pad in the spray booth. Def going to do that one myself.
Ah Hah!!! So this is where all of the Etsy sales on my site are coming from all of the sudden. This is the coolest thing to happen to me in forever. Thank you so much for the review of the Brush Dragon and the Easy-Driver. I've been 3D printing non-stop for 2 days to keep up with orders. Since you and my wife were the instigators of the idea, it makes sense. Your review was so awesome. This is going to be one of my favorites as all the other items you reviewed were all products that I have little experience with. Perfect timing man. Thx, thx, thx!!!
Anytime my friend. Glad to help anybody in the community
I wanted to say thanks to everyone who stopped by to look at the shop. I ran out of the BrushDragons, but have since restocked with more than ever and printing more each day. More colors to as some have requested. (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, black, white and grey) Learning more as I go, of course.
@@martyschulte5660 I didn't realize the power of this channel till we sold 500 of my airbrush in a day
That's amazing, and awesome. I guess it doesn't hurt that it is a very nice design too. @@barbatosrex9473
Two comments:
1. I think those clips that came with the grids on your filter hack segment are meant to be twisted in place. After you fit them on simply twist the two balls on the ends so they wrap the ends around each other. Sorry if this has been mentioned-- just saw this video and don't have time to read all the comments.
2. From an earlier video you recommended a cat scratch board to hold parts after painting by using alligator clips on dowels. I've set mine up as you suggested and it's a great idea!
Instead of buying dowels at the hardware store, I used bamboo skewers from the super market. Cheaper and available in several useful lengths.
Hope this helps!
I bought a cheap kit with bamboo skewers and alligator clips but I can’t figure out how to assemble them??? I tried crimping the alligator clips ends where a copper wire normally goes but it just loosens up and falls off and is such a nuisance. What am I doing wrong?
@@Syclone0044, I just crimped them on real tight. Don't know why yours came off unless they just weren't tight enough. You could try saturating the tip of the skewer with cyanoacrylate super glue just before you crimp it. Then really crimp it down HARD.
I wasn't planning on buying a new airbrush but man, I think I need to get yours. Look's fantastic.
It's a good airbrush. I've been using mine for a week now and I'm loving it. I look forward to getting both your version and a couple of that airbrush stands too.
I 3d print almost every day, including designing my own 3d models. depending on how you support and orient your model, there may be no supports needed and therefore no "flash". mind you, I do resin printing since it has the high level of detail required for scale modeling, compared to fdm printing, which does end up with supports that are much more like flash.
The little plastic clips are essentially reusable twisty ties. You twist them once and the little nodules cross over and stay in place.
I used to buy those dumb bell clips at Ace Hardware. I used them to fix broken arms on my Kenner 12” Chewbacca, Darth Vader and Bionic Bigfoot.
Amazing 'hack' & deals! You are 'the Man' to go to for the best of everything!! We know that we can take your word as 'gospel', as you even show new products that would be in the same arena as your own products line!! Thank you so much Robert for all you do for us 'mere mortals' Take care my friend. 👍👍
"This is fun...................said nobody" Thanks for the early morning chuckle!
Great video. Learned a lot of airbrush techniques from this channel. Glad to have a channel with so much reference material before I buy stuff
After seeing you ceramic blades, I got on a search for them an stumbeld over the slice Brand, that mal interesting craft cutters and knifes with ceramic blades. First impression is really good.
Really awesome video, a lot of great hacks. Thank you.
I like the way you make the video so easy to understand
These are my favorite videos to listen to in the background like a podcast while I’m doing hobby stuff, I always get inspired
81k is a great accomplishment! Love your work, i have learned so much. Now, on the other hand, I am spending way too much money on your stuff. Nah, i love it! I'm ready for your new airbrush. My granddaughter needs a trigger like that. Mine hurts her finger
Very nice tools and stuff again!👌🏻😎 The Fineline liquid mask with needle applicator is great, as it prevents the liquid in the bottle from drying out too quickly. I gues I'll have to find one over here in Germany.😀
These white clips are twist clips (just twist them once). They ars also used for tying plants to thin rods or tying cables together...😉
Gaahleri is working on a fan cap - very good news, I was hoping they would do that! However, I also was hoping it would come with this new airbrush, so now that will cost a lot of extra money (fan caps aren't cheap, I know...).
enlightening as usual. 👌👌
I really like the colored glue. So many times I have needed to reprimer after I glue pieces together and see excess glue marks. Thanks for sharing Robert.
Can you consider doing a video on all the different types of glue? Always great content. Model on!
Yes that's in the planning stages
Those ceramic scraper blades actually caught my attention there. I could definitely use some of those!
Thanks for another exciting vid!
What a neat tips an hacks video I always like to see the neat little fun stuff with useful uses an thanks for the time you envest
Looks great always love your videos!
excited to see the stands! I'm gonna have to try the air booth hack as well.
Free shipping in the States only. I live in Montreal. And anyway, I receive my orders at Amazon pickup point which are PO Box. Only the Federal Canada Post can deliver there. Once, one of them went back to the sender because they did not used Canada Post
That is a nice looking airbrush. Thankyou for sharing all the great information.
The liquid mask with the needle applicator is a great idea. I use the Mr Hobby liquid mask and it works well but really difficult to remove from a brush after use. Also you can use Liquid Latex available from art supply and make up artist places. Costs around $7A for a 45ml jar or $15A for a 200 ml jar so much cheaper. Thanks for all the great info Robert
Try using a silicone brush. I think they're also sold as sculpting tools or something along those lines, I forget. It's basically a brush, but instead of bristles you have a soft(ish) tip made of silicone that that you can just pull the mask off of when it's dry.
I gotta say, I want the barbatos Rex brush and stands and fan cap , haha
Great stuff. Always love the tips and tools videos. That airbrush is still looking awesome.
Thank you. rex great video, especially the liquid masking tape, along with the colored cement. These are awesome looking forward for more
I'm really excited about the airbrush stands. I've been on the notification list for when Hobby Mio's come back in stock for a long, long time. Also, about those clips you were using on the filter, you are supposed to squeeze and twist them together.
Hope your wife is recovering well.
It's wild that I found out about that airbrush today and you got a custom one for yourself! Just got the Avanti combo and I'm going to practice airbrushing the kits I just have to get a few more things for maintenance before I try my hand at it but you're the reason I went and got it to start with! Like always, love the videos and energy... you're the best!!!
Avanti is great just I would upgrade the airbrush it’s self it’s good for majority of kits but there’s certain areas where it shows it lacking like for primer/clear it just doesn’t throw enough paint out if you get real into it get a .5mm for primer/clear usually for clear I got to do 3-4 coats which is a lot of time spent lol just my 2 cents
Found this channel as I'm getting back into models and love it. Keep up the great work and congratulations on the collaboration airbrush.
Nice review great stuff, looking forward to that airbrush.
Great tips. I can really use some of those. I've been thinking about gett some liquid mask. Now I know which one to get. Thanks!
Really looking forward to your swallowtail - noticed they already have accessories for it on the Amazon page. Live your content, please keep up the inspiring videos!
Great video. Thanks for all the tips 🤙🏽
Any time!
Another great video, love your channel, been using liquid masks off and on for years, going to try your spray booth filter hack today. Oh and I'm looking forward to your new air brush review. Looks great so far.
Thanks for the tips Robert I really like the filter tip as I built my own spray booth years ago and was using pads that aircraft parts were shipped in but I think the filter pad will work better also I jumped the gun and purchased the swallow tail works great btw today my new cool tooty compressor is due to arrive today
Thanks again for ALL you do for us
I refuse to use single use plastic glasses for mixing paint
I use a glass shot glass.
I have a few they are easy to clean afterwards.
I wish my Paasche booth had a single filter insert but it's two small ones *sigh* Because of that I had to come up with my own hack which was to cut two cat scratching pads to fit into the opening over the thin filter material. That way the cat scratcher catches a good portion of the particles and I can just knock most of it off when switching the back padding material out.
I've used that SMS V/Line Orange for my General Lee build. It's a pretty good match for the actual colour (even though nobody really nows what that is). I use SMS paints almost exclusively, apart from a few Tamiya lacquers that I use for hand painting. The SMS scraper is great. I'm still using the original blade that came with the handle. I've had it for nearly a year. I still use a blade for some bits, but the scraper gets rid of almost everything. The coloured glue seems like a great idea. I occasionally use the Humbrol masking fluid. As someone else mentioned, it can be a pain when the first bit you put on has almost dried and you put some more on, but the original bit lifts off. I use a toothpick to work it into the edges. If I use a brush it just gums up really quickly and is very hard to clean out.
More great stuff
Love the filter hack. I just got my spray booth about a month ago and I'm already close to needing to change the filter. I've had my Omni 4000 AB for about 18 years now and I love it, but I've been considering a second AB. Been looking at the Grex models, but now I'm intrigued by yours. The colored Ammo cements are also interesting. Great video! Thanks. Peace and love.
Nice suggestions. Those fineliners are just knock-offs of the Steadtler Triplus fineliners. You get in sets up to 36 colours. The liquid masking fluid are made my many art supply manufacturers. Very popular with watercolour artists. For the finest of fine lines, you can use an old fashion droughting ruling pen. Those ends of those filter clips actually hook around each other to get a proper fitment. The airbrush looks awesome especially with a fan cap.
Smart Dad
I use HQparts squeegee and gaianotes finish master R squeegee to take off liquid mask, also can't wait to see what size niddles youl have for your airbrush and definitely ordering one since I need to start priming with a trigger.
My Swallowtail Airbrush will have three needle sizes included. A 0.28mm, a 0.5mm and a 0.7mn
My hands are telling me they want this airbrush.
ty
Would have loved to order the brush holder for mason jars, but the maker applies to the America First rule. Oh well
I used bottles of Bob Dively Models' Liquid Masking Film back in the day. It was great stuff. They’re out of business now. I’ll have to try one of these. P.S. That Behr spray paint is amazing!
Oh yeah, that Behr spray is great for sure. Test coming soon
Congratulations on the collaboration Robert. You have had GAAHLERI in high regards since you first started testing their products. You have undoubtedly given them a huge push forward with their business. It’s great to see them being gracious and wanting to include you as a part of a stellar line of products. Respect is truly earned and recognized by the same type of people. Stay metal brother. 🎉🎉🎉
Just found you channel and have been catching up on your tips and techniques. Thanks for those. Re: the filter hack where did you source the the grid from. I have been searching the internet, Amazon, Lowes, Home Depot without luck. 😢
Just so you know I have found the airbrush stands on Ali express site I am in UK . Jay
Hey Robert, how is your wife is she recovering well? Best wishes for her. Will the Gaahleri collaboration brush ship to Australia and will it still be USD$100 + shipping. Cheers Steve
...and that’s it!
Nice video Robert. Did you add the "filter holder" to the spray booth, or did that particular one come with the holder attached? Cheers!
Nice tools and tips! I do something similar for my booth. I have two frames that fit together with one frame having carpenter's mesh, then I trap the outer edge of the mat between the two frames and screw them together. With your set up you might be able to use just one grid panel and some zip ties going through the mat in some spots around the edge just to hold it in place. The airbrush looks awesome and I can't wait to see the full review. It looks like one that will be some competition for the Grex and the GSI Creos.
Are us Canadians going to be able to get your airbrush. Looking forward to it
Hi Robert, will they be selling the fan attachment separately for their existing airbrushes? I bought the trigger Gaahleri some time back and would really like the fan attachment. I can’t remember if you already spoke on this. Thanks!
What are the specs on that airbrush? Needle sizes, cup sizes, how it works. Do you have a video showing all that? Sounds like it. Thanks Rex!
nice
Hi B.Rex will the airbrush be available for us that live in England? That goes for the giveaway too. Thanks Jay.
The airbrush is being shipped worldwide. The giveaway is for US residents only
Take my money! I need 5 airbrush stands, where do I go to get them?
Is the coloured glue the type that melts plastic, or is it the additive type that adds layers?
Love your work i've found your channel when researching chrome paints and kind of been hooked ever since to learn more about airbrushes in general but now I'm having somewhat of a dilemma and thinking this is the right place to ask the question. This upcoming airbrush with a fancap or the procon boy 290? i am starting up a side gig of 3d printing game fan art in resin and a good airbrush seems to go a long way. Until now i was using a no name one from amazon witch i manage to bend the 0.7needel a bit , lost the cap seal and the 0.5 needle cap so there is definitely time for an upgrade. So far my opinion is that the procon boy 290 would help more for priming and clear coating with the fix 0.5 needle however from what ive been able to find this swallowtail 0.7 seems to create quite the fan from a far away but also give you the option of more fine details up-close ? also hearing this might come with a fan cap kind tips the scale in its favor.
I guess I need some more diverse opinions before jumping on any one of them.
Well it's no shock that I'm going to recommend my Swallowtail Airbrush however consider this, it has 3 needle sizes to handle anything, and it has the pistol grip which is very comfortable. I have both airbrushes and the Swallowtail is best.
Thank you , you kind re-emphasize my opinions, where the set of the Swallowtail comes already with everything that you need while the procon boy has additional stuff you need to purchase like the handle and extension bigger cup and so its a bit more . Will wait for the launch and all the best@@barbatosrex9473
I built a booth and used that filter lol
Is it ok to put over painted surfaces
What paint booth are you using ? Do you have a video on it ?
I just got another booth by this company, Pace Spray Booths. Here's that video and an update to that videon
