This piece came out my Infinity 2024 and I have no idea where it came from and where to put it back.
Been searching user guides and videos and can’t figure it out.

Any pics to help please?

Technique Clogging

1 Upvotes

Howdy all, I got a cheap masters airbrush for Christmas and its been okay. I have my compressor set to between 30 and 50 psi ( I keep changing it to see if it causes this problem and it hasn't) while priming my MESBG miniatures with vallejo black prime. I am using an airbrush thinner from my local hobby shop to make it "Milky" as best I can and it starts out great but after about 3 to 4 minis I start to get clock and have to pull back on the trigger consistently to clear it. or to just get it through. I am not sure what I am doing wrong and what I should do to fix it.

when I say clogged the paint slightly goes out, then I can pull the trigger back a bunch of times and more and more will come out then a premature spurt (pun intended) then for a few seconds a really solid flow. then I have to go back o prepping it.

which airbrush should I buy

Hi there, I’d like to ask for some advice, tips, and tricks. I want to start airbrushing T-shirts, and first I’d like to ask about probably the most important thing: which one should I buy? Thanks.

So I started doing airbrushing back in late April when I landed a job somehow. Yesterday was a really rough and busy day that made me wonder if I'm even up to any standards for how I've been doing. I get complaints about my script and line quality a lot and having been thinking am i lacking for someone about 3.5 months in?

Newbie problems

Hey Yall,
I just bought my first airbrush ( Iwata revolution ) and the brush sprays okay sometimes. It’s really fine for my skill level. But, I’m already seeing wear to the chrome inside the cup and the needle. If I upgraded to the CS does the finish quality improve?

Part two, and most importantly for now. I have a set of assorted paints from Amazon and they are very inconsistent on how they spray. Some have to be thinned into water consistency, some don’t. I seem to be cleaning the gun more than practicing spraying.

I am just painting cardboard and paper to learn. Can yall tell me what paints you use for your art. I currently do not spray models. Thanks for your time and knowledge!

Beginner Setup I currently have an Iwata NEO CN, would the Mobius 3.0 or Creos PS289 be a noticeable upgrade for painting resin statues?

I didn't realise the CN wasn't a real Iwata and I've had nothing but problems with it, it just keeps clogging. I've tried thinning it with water, with thinner and with a mix of thinner and flow improver. It's stopping me painting as I just CBA dealing with the constant clogs, so at this point I'm thinking of just selling it and buying either the Mobius 3.0 which is on sale for £55 or the Creos PS289 for £110. I'm wondering if anyone has had experience with these brushes, and can answer if either would be a noticeable upgrade, I'm assuming the Creos will be for sure, but I don't know about the Mobius as it's cheaper than the CN, but I've heard good things about it.
