My latest darlin's

Just spent a fab afternoon painting some shells for a mate, and seriously considering doing this on a full-time basis, having just been made redundant.

Anyone interested in giving a newbie a go, drop me a PM.


cheers

Different to see someone not have straight edges on a design, almost like the Mick Doohan helmet stripes.

They look cool

Cheers,

didn't quite go according to plan tho. Blasted airbrush kept clogging when trying to do a narrow fade at the edge of the colours. Got a bit uneven...

I'm using an Iwata Eclipse SBS, 0.5mm tip and Faskolor/Createx/Auto Air paint.

Whats the solution? Thinner paint? More Air? Less Air?

Stumped!!!

Some really nice shells there fella

You'll need to get some reducer Ju, to me it sounds like the paint is too thick dude....

get some 4011 auto air reducer, its brill and thinn buy 20% or 30% for fine lines, for fades and blends apply in lots of lite coats = 3-4 and start at 20- 25 psi

Used Auto Air reducer before, but not with Faskolor paint. Will give it a try.

kind regards
