    Love all your work!! I’m working on a ton of custom painted sports card frames with different designs and colors to match the color of card. These vids help me to stay inspired! 🙏🏼 I had a question about marketing and sales techniques. What did you do starting out and is there anything you wish you knew earlier on in your journey? Anything would help. I’m thinking Etsy and Facebook market place to start?

    • @DuncanCustomAirbrush
      @DuncanCustomAirbrush  2 роки тому +1

      Great idea! I started out painting and airbrushing motorcycles. When I started with tumblers I had some previous clients each bring me their whole Christmas list to make his gifts - a one-stop-shop for their entire Christmas list. One thing would be to not wait until people come to you with requests like this, but rather YOU think of creative ways to market to people, friends, family in which you solve a problem for them (i.e. picking out and buying gifts for people can be really hard, challenging, and frustrating). Always be studying whatever it is that you are looking at and why it is appealing to you, and how can you incorporate that into what you do. You may reach out to 100 and only get 5, but knock those 5 out and keep going!

    The tumblers you make are awesome 👌 your videos and the way you talk just show how invested you are in helping others achieve a design that could be normally out of their comfort zone...your videos are informative, entertaining and so very helpful please don't ever change..your awesome 👌

    I did a similar technique but used cardstock and created full lines of scales. I wanted the texture that the cardstock offers but didn't want to glue the scales on one by one. I haven't epoxied it yet but so far it looks freaking awesome!

    You can also get chameleon micro flake, powder, paint, etc from sherwin Williams auto pain division or I'm sure hobby paint shops. But maybe cheaper via volumn since it's for automotive. I had my Camaro stock red sprayed over with the chameleon micro flake before it came out for the public and it was awesome. Now that was like 20+ years ago, lol.

    I did a tumbler and there is a little tiny place on it that didn't get any epoxy and you can see down to the spray paint. Do I have to strip it or can I just put another coat on to cover that spot up? I sure hope it's possible because I hate the thought of stripping it. I'm a newbie to all this and want to make sure I do things right.
