Very nice clear video Karl. 

 

I've never used this technique in all my aircraft modeling, but I'm going to attempt it on my 1/48th V22 Osprey, which is a larger transport plane. If you can do it in this small scale, I'll have no excuses on this model. Lol.  The cleaning technique could come in handy as well for a first timer.

The plane painted in the video,  did you go back and do another thin coat or was that one coat just enough?  The planes look great. I love the look.

Thanks for the video, Always love your enthusiasm Karl.

 

I did the one thin coat and then eyeballed it after a day and then added anywhere that I thought needed a little more. You should go light first and then let it dry--the way you will perceive it will change when the paint has time to set up and dry. Better to "nudge" it on little by little than to cover too much and then you'll have a nightmare trying to match new lines with the faded ones.

Very well done and helpfull video.

Great video Karl. I have a metal body Aztec in my drawer that I've never used. Maybe I need to break it out. I love your General Lee as well..

 

 

 

 

I have 2 metal and 2 plastic.  It's the only airbrush I have ever used. I is very easy for newbies like me to clean and use.  Plus whenever I've had any issues Testors support has been fantastic

I'm still learning the Aztek; it's quite versatile and I think I'm going to love it when I learn all of its idiosyncrasies. :)

Thanks for responding Karl. Yea, I honestly did not think so.  Yet, I was curious when one starts applying solvent based thinners liberally onto plastic. Every once in a while you might find that particular manufacturer's plastic that just seems to have a an adversion to some solvents.

That is an excellent tutorial video Karl. I found some very helpful tips from you. Thank You for taking the time to make it. Question for you, have you found any plastics that react unfavorably to testors thinner?

Hey Karl, I checked it out. Thanks for the info, I had little or no idea how you did the Migs. Good presentation also. Keep up the good work.
