SPECIALIST PRACTICE

Wayne went over how to clean an airbrush, the various types of airbrushes and how different needles create different size cones.

We looked at how you can use different techniques with the airbrush to create a splattering effect which is useful in creating a mottled appearance. This is particular useful when painting creatures. He showed us how to create thinner lines which could be used for veining or detailling.


We covered the differences between a single action and dual action airbrush and there different uses - for instance a single action airbrush, which is cheaper than a dual action, would be ideal for spraying cap plastic.

Wayne explained spray guns and their uses - laying on base colours on large surfaces

Looked at ways to practice the airbursh - by drawing a repetition of lines, dots and lette Q which help with technique
