Airbrush frustrations! Tips most eagerly appreciated

Zephyr — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 23:46:25 GMT

Hi All

So I posted on this tribe back last summer when I took into my head to learn to airbrush body art and do it at Burning Man.... of all the most sensible places to start... fucking playa dust. Needless to say the project was rapidly abandoned as futile with so much dust blowing in my direction every time I even suggested bringing it out. I got so frustrated that when I got back I packed the stuff up and forgot about it..... but now it is spring again and I HAVE to master this project because it's so much time, money and energy already invested into it.

Every time I bring out the airbrush to practice on people there always seems to be a new problem.... I am now an expert in taking apart my airbrush to clean it.... so that's done. Now it is trying to understand what paints to use.... so this is my problem... if anyone has any input I would be most grateful!

I have a Badger dual action airbrush.... the initial paints I used were Badger ones that came with the kit. These worked fine... but they were small containers and ran out. The art store I go to doesn't sell Badger paints but had an abundance of other airbrush paints... assuming these would be fine as they say on the label Createx "airbrush" paints I spent a lot of money on a rainbow of colors. These paints don't come out of my airbrush and clog it up every time I use it. I have tried watering them down but they still don't work. I have tried Kryolan paints which work but they so expensive. Can anyone tell me why the createx paints don't work.....?

Thanks

Zephyr :)

Compressors?

Hunters Moon Studio — Wed, 08 Feb 2006 22:26:05 GMT

Hi all...
I just joined the tribe, and am hoping to get a little friendly advice.... I am going to be teaching myself to airbrush (finally!) and need to buy a compressor. I am hoping to do a wide variety of projects, from fabric to motorcycle helmets to skin. Can anyone recommend any brands or models? Also, feel free to steer me clear of any bad products... Thanks!

Best paint for bodypainting with an airbrush?

Christuus_Gnosis — Thu, 23 Aug 2007 20:06:29 GMT

So what are the mediums that different folks are using?
Do you prepare your medium a special way for flow or adherence?
Color or sticking power of different mediums?
Do you have to special order or are you finding what you need locally?

Black Rock Body Art Guild Invite to Body Artists

Bertrum — Tue, 12 Jul 2005 21:03:04 GMT

For the 3rd year now, the Black Rock Body Art Guild will be gifting Body Art to the citizens of BRC. Airbrush, Paintbrush, Henna, Latex & whatever else.

We’ve always invited visiting artist to join us in the camp and gift to the mass of skin canvas just waiting to get decorated.
We provide a large sheltered space, a place to store your equipment & supplies, and lots of waiting skin canvas.

You provide your own equipment and supplies, (We can supply compressed air if you have a regulator, or power if you have a compressor), and lots of canvases to decorate. Clean up our mess (Leave no trace).

We are especially looking for help on Friday. Friday is Critical Tits day, and we run a “Two for One” special all day. Very Busy that day, just plain busy most days.

If you feel like joining us to decorate the skin canvas of BRC citizens, Please contact us.

For those that just want to get painted, it would be great if you brought your own paint/latex, and left the extra so we could paint others. Contact us if you’d like to know what paints work well.

Thanks, See you on the Playa,
Bertrum
Black Rock Body Art Guild

PS. We are an ART Camp, not a Perv camp. No photos without the canvas’ permission. We paint everyone.

Rose

prairiekittin — Sun, 19 Feb 2006 07:34:54 GMT

Okay, I'm still learning to use the airbrush. There doesn' t seem to be any classes in this area at this time, so I'm just kinda muddling along on my own. Anyway, This isn't body work, it's just on paper, but I finally got Elysia's rose done. There is a picture of it in my profile pictures. I didn't want to put it in this Tribe's album because it's not body paint. It's the pink rose with the green background.

paint?

prairiekittin — Thu, 22 Dec 2005 22:04:44 GMT

I just got an air brush for Yule. I'm still experimenting with it... and having a lot of fun doing it!
Now, my question is, where do I look for body paint? Is this a special paint, or can watercolors be used for body painting? What would be the best place to get it? Is there a brand to look for?
Obviously, I know nothing about this, but I would love to learn!!
Any info you can give me will help.

Hi, I am new and I always loved to paint. In fact I am rather good at it. I never painted bodies but would like to do so in future. I often asked myself what kind of paint is the best and least harmful to use?

the photo gallery is screwing with me!!

RebeccaK — Tue, 01 Nov 2005 14:40:03 GMT

I tried uploading my photo, and it wasn't showing up in the gallery...then all of a sudden, it's on the main page FOUR times. But NOT in the photo gallery where I can delete the extra images. On the main page, there are supposedly 21 images, but when I go to the gallery there are only 17...

so I apologize if you are seeing multiple images of me, don't mean to be a gallery hog ;) I will log back in later and try to fix it, or maybe the mod can...

Mod??

Stencil vs freehand

patric — Fri, 01 Jul 2005 03:14:19 GMT

Hey y'all,
posted 2 more pics, so to keep with their theme, I wanted to throw a topic into the ring:
Does anyone like to use stencils (like in the tribal wings pic), or prefer doing freehand.
My favorite is a blend of two, but I've found stencils are excellent for time-restraints but can get redundant, otherwise free-hand yields the best art.

Blacklite Bodypaint

patric — Sun, 05 Jun 2005 01:57:43 GMT

I brought an example of the airbrush bodyart we were doing last weekend. This particular piece with the dayglo ivy shone like the sun under the collection of 4' blacklites they had there.
All the examples I posted (not anonymous) were done with Michael Davy's professional line of airbrushable stage makeup, and most of his colors, especially the luminous and blue-based ones, do really well with blacklites!
Shine On!

Buying a New Airbrush & Compressor

davidra — Sat, 23 Apr 2005 18:44:25 GMT

Hi Yall,

Ya know what? All you guys rock, such great work on the airbrushing body painting, I just have to say that first off! =)

I currently have a decent airbrush and compressor that I use for body painting and crafts that I bought from Kryolan (a theatre makeup store here in SF), and though its ok, I would really like something a bit better. Not only do I do body painting, but I mainly use my airbrush to decorate the costumes I create for various circus troupes.

anyone got any links, suggestions, or tips as to what to look for , what I need, and what to expect price wise?

Also, are there any airbrush books that anyone can recomend, videos or websites would rock out too! Im always looking to make my skills better.

Thanks All.
