    As a brush painter myself,I use enamels for light colours and acrylic for dark colours,thus eliminating the need for multiple coats.

      @@brushpaintedmodels7086 I have had 2 airbrushes , 1 I gave away (to an artist !) and the other went in the bin ! I prefer to brush , I use Humbrol enamels ( the only stuff I can buy locally .) and have taken to spraying on a coat of grey primer ,because I was filling in the panel lines . I love camo , particularly the hard-edge splinter variety ! ( as you can see on my channel .)

    I found your channel by accident but it is fun to watch. Good to know that there are still people using hairy stick for painting, not only airbrush and I am not as crazy as all modellers around me try to make me believe. So thanks for putting them here :)
    BTW - if you want to get 100% brush, then you can brush Tamiya Primer sold in bottles, thinned 2:1 (thinner:primer) with their Lacquer Thinner. It goes down very nicely.
    As for issues with Tamiya Paints: you need then thinned with dedicated thinner. While they can be thinned with water due to regulations in US and UE regarding kid toys it is still a lacquer paint, not true acrylics. With multiple layers the new one is reacting with previous one creating a mess. So use X-20A and, as stupid as it may sound, do not thin it too much. For Gundams I use 3:1 or 4:1 (paint:thinner) depending on color and 1 layer is enough to cover naked plastic (no primer)m no brush strokes and it sticks. For planes I thin more (2:1) as I want at least two layers for some shading and color blending on edges and solvent in paint helps with it but you need to be really careful with multiple layers. Tamiyas are cool paints and give great finish, but sometimes I wonder if they are worth pain when brushed. Still I have a lot left from airbrush times so I use them :)

    Vallego sells an Air War Color Series kit for USAF aircraft with the gray schemes from the 1970s' to the present . . . . . and include the three different tone grays used on the F-16. The kit comes with a total of 7 different tones of gray plus a primer. I bought a kit at Hobby Lobby for $ 17.

    • @brushpaintedmodels7086

  • @BarryWinner2075
    @BarryWinner2075 Před rokem

    Lot of the time I will use spray paint cans to apply the base color such as olive drab for tanks and grey primer for airplanes, then use brush paint as a second coat. The AK and Vallejo paints lay down very well with very few brush marks. I use real high quality red sable brushes, they also clean up very well when used with acrylic paint, they get all gummed up with enamel and lacquer, I usually use an air brush or spray cans for car and motorcycle models for the high gloss look, But brush painting saves a lot of time from having to clean an air brush also from having to do a lot of masking for spray paint.

    @goose5253 Před 3 lety +2

    If you brush paint tamiya paint, either buy x-20 thinner or use isopropyl alcohol and thin it 1:1, since tamiya paint is a solvent based paint. Either way, you made a very nice model!

    • @brushpaintedmodels7086
      @brushpaintedmodels7086  Před 3 lety +2

      Thanks for the advise! I will try it out. I assume you mean X-20A, because X-20 is an enamel thinner, and I need to thin acrylic paint.

    Good job, but here is some information for you, all American fighter jets from mid 1970's to now have their afterburners coated in Cobalt White heat coatings, and the after burners prior to the 1970's are usually either Cobalt Green J79's or Cobalt Gray (almost like a Gunship Gray) but a good Green to use is the U.S. Interior Greens or Zinc Chromate Green, also on the nose of your F-16 you accidentally cut off the Angle Of Attack (AOA) Probes, they where those very pointed bits next to the Sprue Gates.
    If you need any more questions answered on the F-16 Lawn Dart, I worked 8 years on them while in the U.S.A.F. plus I'm also the aviation historian for the Airman's Heritage Museum at Lackland AFB.

    Perfect model! Something about brush painting Tamiya: i have painted MiG-27 by Zvezda with Tamiya XF-80 without thinner and panel lines are good-visible. Interesting fact: you can thin Tamiya with water when brush painting. It's strange with your Tamiya Neutral Gray...

    • @brushpaintedmodels7086
      @brushpaintedmodels7086  Před 2 lety +1

    Hey man. Your technique is great and I would like some tips. What would you suggest in general, and what would you suggest I use as a filler so that it is non toxic? I have just started becoming more serious with my scale models. Thanks

    • @brushpaintedmodels7086
      @brushpaintedmodels7086  Před 3 lety +3

      I like the Tamiya putty I am using. It dries fast, and you can fill any gap with it. It is rock hard after drying so you can sand it. But it stinks. You have to open the window while using it. If you are looking for something odourless, then try Vallejos Plastic Putty. It is water soluble. But dries slowly and is not the best option to fill large gaps, or for sanding.
      Maybe there are some better options out there, I have experience with only these 2 products.

    • @spinster4000
      @spinster4000 Před 3 lety +3

      I highly recommend Vallejo plastic putty, apply putty to the said gap and then take a damp cotton swab and run it along. The putty will go down into the gap and the excess wiped away, leaving a perfect filled gap, but like he said it’s not great for large gaps, thus I use TAMIYA putty. I use both personally

    Very nice job! I was wondering if you hand paint out of a dry palette, wet palette, or from a cup with paint/thinner mix? Do you thin your primer coat in 50/50 ratio also? In your opinion, what paint is easiest to brush paint for consistent coverage? Thanks.

    • @brushpaintedmodels7086
      @brushpaintedmodels7086  Před 2 lety +3

      I use a dry palette. Paint + thinner mix in 1:1 ratio. For primer I use a spray. I find the best for brush painting water based acrylic paints, like Vallejo Model Color or Revell Aqua.

      Thanks! I tried to apply Vallejos Surface Primer 73.615 with a brush, but I was not satisfied with the result. The end result with Tamiyas Spray is much better. Maybe in the future I will experiment a bit with handbrushing primers.

  • @drail80s

    Hi, after applying the wash, how did you remove it? Did you use thinner or just wipe it off? Also, what do you use to thin the paint?

    • @brushpaintedmodels7086
      @brushpaintedmodels7086  Před rokem

      It depends how long you wait, you can just wipe it off, or use a little thinner if it is too dry.

  • @SwordToothTiger
    @SwordToothTiger Před 3 lety

    Do you use some special thiner for acrylic colors? Or just water? Is this necessary to get smooth painted surface?

    • @brushpaintedmodels7086
      @brushpaintedmodels7086  Před 3 lety

      Yes I use a thinner. ca. 1:1 ratio with the paint. I use Vallejos Thinner Medium No. 70.524 because I use mostly Vallejos model color. These are water based acrylics, you can use this thinner with Revell Aqua, or Italeris acrylic as well. But all paint manufacturers have their own thinners. Water based acrylic paints are mixable, and their thinner interchangeable. But be careful with solvent based acrylics like Tamiya or Mr. Hobby. You have to use their own thinner, in case of Tamiya X20A. I can not recommend using water as a thinner, if you add to much, the paint will "fall apart".

      Vallejo would have worked better for sure. But I did not have that color back then. But I used a wrong thinner with that Tamiya paint, probably that caused my struggle. Will try again in future.

      Add a thinner into the paint. ca 1:1 ratio for water based acrylics. And use fine synthetic brushes ( I prefer filbert brush). If still not satisfied, you can try to polish the surface.

      Hi Tomas. You are not alone, I have the same problem with white paints. It's a nightmare to paint white color with a brush. I bought a Tamiya white primer in a spray can, and I just spray the primer on it. 3X. That's how I did it on this model, no white painting at all. It's much better. Hope it helps.

    • @brushpaintedmodels7086

      Yes, I do apply gloss varnish after painting (before applying decals). Then another coat when decals applied. I use enamel wash, because enamel thinner ( when removing excess wash) doesn't harm your acrylic paint. Then at the end when everything is finished, I apply a final coat of varnish. Satin or matt. It depends, which suits the plane better.
