Since my airbrush recently broke. Does anyone have any tips on painting a model with a regular paint brush?

thanks,
Mike

When I do brush paint, I thin the paint down. Then use a brush made for painting large areas, not some detail size brush.
Other than that, its all in the way that it goes! Good luck, it should turn out ok!

Armor135 If you would like I have an old Badger 350 with some extras and dont use it since I picked up the Aztec 470..Its yours for the asking! Let me know. (:-)

My offer is still open. :-)

What do you think of the Aztec as opposed to the Badger???

Aztec Im using is so much nicer than my old Badger. Much easier for fine detail, cleaning , comfort, and the list goes on.

Hello
Some brush tips 1. thin your paint add what ever thinner you use for your media
ie ,water/thinner.youll know when its thin enough when you stir it and 2-3 drops
fall off within a couple seconds,if it does this add 2-3 drops of dawn or sunlight,
this makes your paint flow better thin more if who dont have that consistancey.

2. The right tool for the job. for large areas you want a larger brush 3/16 - 1/4
inch.Look at the area your going to start just like you had a paint gun in hand
and your job is to paint it.use the softest brush you can find . A ladys brush
for their eye make up is just great. Youll find once you get used to it , youll
gain some cricital skills
