Thanks Andy, I’m 67 now and just getting back Into Modelmaking after a break of about 20 years, wow how things have changed, thanks for the great hints.
Same... haven't built one since high school which is about 28 years for me. Forgot how much fun I use to have building models. Never had any of the fancy stuff they have now like airbrushes, did it all by brush back then.
Am 61 myself never heard of photo etch,modelling has changed so much.
1985 was the last time i built,love the tips and techniques.
Many thanks.
Andy, thank you for sharing your sage advice. I always appreciate your videos.
Been using Tamiya paints through my airbrush for years. Its my favorite paint to use. Thanks for the tips! Can't wait to try them on my 1/48th Panther! 👍
This is one of the most helpful videos for a beginning airbrusher, like me, thanks for the help and you've earned a subscriber!
Andy, love your channel and your message about modeling- I have learned a ton from watching your vids! Thanks again!
Very helpful tutorial. I love Tamiya products. They are the gold standard of this hobby.
Thanks. I appreciate your coverage of the various types of cement & paint. I generally build wargaming models and am a big fan of Tamiya products in general
This was the best airbrush tips video I've seen! Wish it didn't take me so long to stumble across it. The thinning trick will save me tons of time.
Andy, Great tips, glad I popped in for a look. Like the idea using the Buff. Thanks! - Bob
Just used these tips on a Taiymia DAK Panzer III L. Im a new modeler and these tips are some of the most useful for airbrushing. Thank you so much.
Andy thanks for the tip on thinning the Tamiya paint. I will use that rule every time I buy a new bottle of paint. I have watch so many videos and your is the best by far.
Great video on the basics, Andy! After a 22 year hiatus from modeling, this video is just what I needed to get going again. (Although I originally watched this about two years ago, I like to come back to it since it’s a great reference.). Thanks for all your help!
Thanks for this video, I watched it originally ages ago but in reading a viewers comment on another channel's video, expressing that they always had difficulty thinning their paints to the point they rarely paint, I thought of You, and this particular video and decided to search and find it again so I could not only refresh my memory as I finally have my first models and paints but to also offer them this link to hopefully help their painting and give them confidence in painting and enjoying this hobby.
I’m so glad I found you video. New to air brushing so this helped a lot.
Thank You for Sharing Andy n God Bless All
What a really helpful video, especially the thinning part. Thanks for sharing.
Many thanks for someone like me who is just getting started on airbrushing One of the trickiest bits for me is thinning the paint properly
Dear Mr. Andy,
It is always a pleasure for me to watch you build, paint and especially when the models age. Many of your tips are now my own. Their experience and especially the nice way they bring it over is great. I don't have a dealer near me, I have to drive more than 100 km to the nearest dealer. A man like you is rarely here in Germany, who is above all a model builder himself and therefore knows what he's talking about!
I always feel sorry for the fools who give a thumbs down. Probably frustrated, who can't do anything themselves ... .-)
They do a valuable service for us model builders. Thanks for that!.
Best regards from Germany
This is my favorite video, has made my airbrushing much better! Thank you!
Love the videos Andy, easy to understand and right to the point.
So the tip on thinning tamiya paints just saved me 20 minutes again and a lot of experiments with thinning
Thanks this video was amazing and helped me a lot since I’m still a beginner
I love Tamiya paint and models. They're amazing!
I left my models in the shelf quite a long time. Now is the time to come back to have fun. Thank you Andy.
4 years later how did it all go?

5 years later how did it all go?
Great tutorial. I’m building after a long time away from the hobby. Things have changed. Thanks so much for your advice. 👍👍
Just found your channel today and I'm impressed. Liked and subbed and will be watching your other videos. I found this video on tamiya paints helpful. I was always a little uncomfortable using acrylic paint on plastic, so confidence is higher now thanks to this video.
Might I also say I'm glad you have embraced the Internet. Almost all the brick and mortar stores in my area have closed down years ago and I am forced to buy my hobby needs by Internet and mail order. Sure do miss the days of hanging out at the local hobby shop talking with the employees about hobby matters. Now I'm very much on my own and have to rely on the Internet for all and any help with my hobbies.
Thank for the thinning tip, I do it on all my new bottle of Tamiya paint and it work like a charm.
Just checked out your website... I only wish we had a store like that within 300 miles of where I live! :( Thanks for this video, very enlightening!
From a returning scale modeler thank you for all the good tips and recommendations
Thank you Andy! I recently came back into the hobby and was having problems with airbrushing techniques. Your simple and “to the point” way of explaining things has really helped me. I look forward to the next video.
+speelunker Thank you I'm glad I could help.
Thanks so much for the cement tips! Great tutorial
Andy, excellent channel and great information. My modelling has improved since watching your channel
Thank you so much for this video topic! I am returning to modeling after life, kids, etc, and feel like I'm starting over again. I subscribed, and will be binge watching many more! Great job!
Hi from Brisbane, Australia. I’m 62 yo and haven’t modeled since my late twenties. Wow, how things have changed! Been searching for HEAPS of info and have found this one to be amongst the best. Information is clear and useful. I have subscribed 👍👍
This is a priceless 101 video. I have been utilizing this stuff But, it is nice to see vindication. Thanks for your therapy also. The thinner tip is very informative for air brushing. IF, you have an entire bottle you will never want to hand paint with. I have to do that with Olive Drab as entire trees have to be painted. The buff tip was cool.
Andy your Awesome...
Keep up the good work.
Thanks...
Thank you, Andy.
really good tutorial, I'll have to try that thinning Tamiya paint idea nice. yeah I never prime my models, and like you I never wash them, and i never had any trouble with the paint sticking, but I do wash my resin kits there's some kind of oil on it, not everything but I do wash just to make sure. again great vid.
Awesome information!
andy want to thank you for your great videos I am new at this and you have helped me really enjoy modeling now
Andy, you are a life saver with this video! The info on the air brush and the Lysol was the best. I was days away from chucking the air brush because of dried paint, and the tip on adding the thinner to the Tamiya paints made painting so much easier. I'm in the process of trading out may AV Air for Tamiya colors now. Thx... PS Not having any luck with the glue though... 2 out of 3 is a number I can live with...
Great tips will be trying this for sure !
I love Tamiya products, have used them for years...thanks..
Thanks for the awesome video Andy!!!
Makes me wanna build models again, I remember using that old school tube glue and getting prints all over the model!
Some good stuff I never washed my models either and usually don't prime Thanks 4 the tips
Great video. I never knew you could thin the paint in the bottle, great tip!
Thanks for the comments on cleaning parts and priming. I’ve been building for 50 years and quit washing parts decades ago. Some of the more obscure kits out of Eastern Europe still use copious amounts of mold release but they are exceptions. As for priming, the only time I do it is to check my filling, sanding, or scratch-building for imperfections prior to the color coats.
Very good tutorial. Thanks!
This is a great video! I have been looking for an in depth review of these very items, thanks.
Great tips. Thank you
This is very helpful, I really appreciate it.
Cheers,Andy. Good trick for thinning proportions, I've spent years mixing paint drop by drop. Cool moves matey.
Great and easy tips !! Tks for sharing
Just got an airbrush that was very informative thank you!
Dude that tip on thinning a whole bottle is kick ass ... I never know that trick. Thank you
your welcome I glad it helped
sir you sold tamiya paint and thinner for me with it! awesome tip!
Jan Haayer
can i also use the thinning technique if i do handpainting on my kits? really having a hard time doing the tamiya acrylic and thinner ratio by just eyeballing it.
Tamiya paints aren't the best for brush painting, have a look at vallejo or lifecolor, both are acrylic water based, for me lifecolor are the best model paints available
After trying a lots of paints (acrylic, lacquer, enamel) i got a pair of Tamiya bottles and i'm totally amazed with performance of these paints.
IMHO best paints on the market definitely along with Gunze.
Great video!
thanks Andy this really helped airbrushing really is easier then spray can and then touching up area's with hand brushing
Thanks for explaining everything I need to know this video was very helpful to me because I just started on airbrushing and this was verystraight forward and much more simple than the other videos
nice job, thanks for all of your help.
Great painting hacks!!! Took notes and will use these techniques!

DUDE! I just recently got into this hobby and absolutely love it, I've built three 72 scale planes, one spitfire and two BF 109's. I am working on a Panzer IV Ausf. G in 35 scale right now. I found your video randomly and saw your beautiful shop and thought to myself "damn, I would LOVE to have a place like that in my area that I could go to.....
I look at your description and almost had a brain aneurysm. YOU ARE IN MY AREA! LOL
I am 110% stopping by sometime. Thank you for the useful information in the vid man! God Bless.
Thanks for the tips!! Never thought of using the line on inside of Tamitya bottle; usually just eyeball it...I don't wash or prime either, but lately I've been having issues with the paint...
