Airbrush Dreams
Air-Valve Autobot!
I found today that using Golden airbrush medium works really well in Createx Illustration Paint. I had no issues with tip dry or spitting blobs of paint. I still used my Etac today only because I didn't want to try to color match what I had already mixed.Well it happened and you were right about finding a paint that works.
I am now on the right path thanks indirectly to old posts from Squishy and Andre, promoting Wicked and ComArt respectively. I had some ComArt as a 'bonus' that came with my Eclipse. Had lotsa problems, and without a doubt due to inexperience.
So I bought some Wicked Detail, along with 4012 highly touted by Squishy.
Not real crazy about the Details' saturation, but that fact was there for me to read. Just didnt see it, but it will have its place here.
Back to the Com-art and it was better with my practice, but still not crazy about it.
Then I found Andres post(s) today (from 2012?) regarding using Com-art with Iwata medium, which seems to be kind of a secret. Figured if Andre wont use Com-art without the Iwata Medium, what chance does a newb have at being satisfied? I know people use it successfully, but I just cant seem to 'get it to go' like I want.
Didnt have the Iwata Medium of course, but what I did have now is the 4012 that came with the Wicked.
So I used some of the 4012 and reduced blue Comart by about 30% and shot some at 15psi. OMG the sun come out and the world suddenly became nothing but butterflies and roses! Its just fabulous.
Now I finally get yet another thing that you guys have been saying.
