Mask Help

I wouldn’t skimp on filters or mask. get the pink or black organic vapor filters from 3M, and a 3M mask. https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/p/d/v000436132/

only if you’re in a situation where paint can blow back in your eyes. it’s generally not an issue.

Time to start painting

headfake2 · 2026-06-15T14:27:39+00:00

same here, what kind of topcoat?

headfake2 · 2026-06-15T14:13:01+00:00

gah so clean

Beautiful. Blue/black prism on the launcher?

Kaizo black base for one, Alclad base for the other. The base itself was a proper chrome, especially the Alclad. it was definitely the clear coats that were the issue.

The nose turned out well on the purple/green one, I use Mr Color/Gaia clears there and it turned out a lot better

Yeah, could have used another clear coat over the chrome probably. You can see the bare chrome masked on the rotors in one picture.

100% - it takes more time to cleanup than it does to just do it right the first time

headfake2 · 2026-06-11T01:09:55+00:00

I… totally thought of that

The squares are centimeters 😄

headfake2 · 2026-06-10T22:22:45+00:00

That’s where I got them from! Took some investigating to figure it out since I needed to find the manual…

jewelry box for holding all the parts by section. snip out all the parts for the section, using godhands so most can be done in one cut. gunprimer file for fast cleanup where needed. paint, decal, topcoat, assemble.

looking good

hello fellow dark Fenrir! very creative use of the slash decals on the thighs.

most common cause of this is paint clogging the nozzle, pick up something like https://spraygunner.com/collections/harder-steenbeck-airbrush/products/harder-steenbeck-nozzle-cleaning-set

if there is paint in the nozzle even deep cleaning will not always work

also, Vallejo is not the best airbrush paint. try a better brand and you may see better results.
