Hi brother. I just found your channel by accident. Glad I did. I just started painting again after 30years off. Got way motivated again and looking forward to sponging your down to earth knowledge. Thanks for your time and effort to share
Man thank you so much for this video. I recently just purchased and airbrush kit and had no idea what I was going to do about templates or stencils. I honestly never would have thought of this. Pure genius haha.
Many solutions to any problem my friend! One must only take the time to try them! I'm happy to be able to share tmwhat I've learned!! 😊 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Hi Ryan. I really really appreciate the time you take to make and post these videos. People like you, who are totally selfless sharing your knowledge and experience with us who can't afford school, are so important to people like me. You said you like to do whatever to save a buck. I am a model builder and instead of an Exacto knife I have been using a scalpel. They are sharper than an Exacto blade and I get 100 of them individually wrapped for $10 and you get a free handle. Amazon is the place. I hope this can help contribute a little back into your studio for all the value you have saved us.
Thanks for the Intel my friend!! And for the amazing feedback and support!! 😁 its greatly appreciated!!👍 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
The wet stone you used for your airbrush needle . On video 5 fixing bent needles . I resharpen my Xacto blades with the wet stone . A couple swipes and good to go again . Thanks for the videos
Thanks for the awesome Intel Soldier!! 😁👍 that's a great tip for the ARMY to keep their Blades Battle Ready!! 😉😁 The BloodShot ARMY Salutes You!!🤘😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!
😁👍 just be sure to apply the urathane paint last. Or any water based paints you try to put over a urathane paint will literally disappear as the clear coats are applied! The clear will pull the urathane paints through the water based acrylics. just a little F.Y.I. 🤘😎
This video shows just what kind of arts you are.save money make your own cut outs saving time don't haft to wait on shipping haha like you art teaching abilitys good stuff.you got my vote.
Thanks for the amazing feedback and support my friend!!👍 I've never purchased a single stencil. I cut them all out by hand. Been doing it this way for 25 + years!🤔😁 If it ain't broken, don't fix it... lol 😉😊 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Bloodshot, not sure if you'll see this but I love your videos and tutorials man. I can't thank you enough for making it so enjoyable to learn this stuff. 👌
You do a great job on your videos. You’re fun to listen to, like your weird humor, and the content is super too. Thanks for taking the time to create them.
Well thanks a lot man, now my gf and the kids think I'm going crazy because I have been digging through the garbage looking for anything I think I might be able to make stencils out of! Thanks for sharing dude.
Lol!! I'm sure they alread knew something was off.... lmao!!😉😁 who wants to be normal anyways... normal is so boring... lol!! 😊 glad to have ya on Deck in the BloodShot ARMY!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
You bet!! Many ways to accomplish anything my friend!! Glad to have your Intel included Soldier!!😉👍 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
General Crewchief checking in. Lol. Anyways, I have a stack of transparency film from back in the day when school used actual overhead projectors. Cuts really well, I just print a template, tape it to the back, and cut away. However you have to be careful on curves. Try to pull the cut without stopping and starting, you'll get little "square" spots that will show up when you spray. You can find transparency film sometimes at garage sales, schools that have old stock, even office supply stores will clearance them out. Bonus tip: I used to pay top dollar for "frisket" film labeled as frisket. Well with a Michael's coupon for $5 I have found this stuff called "Magic Cover". It's not labeled as a frisket, but as a cheap way to laminate stuff when you don't have a lamination machine. It's got a 1" grid backing paper to help cut it square, is super clear, super thin, and cuts really well, is archival acid free on the adhesive, and has the perfect amount of tack. Comes in 18" width and you get a crap ton. Doesn't crinkle like some other frisket, is easy to lay down bubble free with a putty knife, and restickable if you need to place a section back.
Thanks broski!! Once again your Intel is Amazing!! All great info!! I've also heard of people using the access cut off lamination pieces as well. You can get these from schools or even library's!! 😁👍 I mostly wanted to show that you can find this stuff anywhere, if you look!! 😀And you provided some more great examples my friend!! The BloodShot ARMY Salutes you General!!🤘😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!
@@BloodShotAirbrushing Thanks! I don't even buy shields or guides anymore, but I do still with I had a laser etcher or something, caused I would love to make some of the really fine texture stencils. Like the micro dot one that Dru Blair sells, but I'll be dammed if I'm paying $50 for a stencil. 😂
@@Crewchief227 man.... if he can sell them at 50 a pop! Good on him! But I'm far to cheap to afford such luxuries! I've always made my own... I've bought and got given a few drafters circle templates! 😁 and they do come in handy!! But, as I said.. the pros had to start somewhere... if they can do it! So can anyone else that puts in the time!! 🤘😎
@@Crewchief227 just had a thought...🤔 a wood burning tool with a fine tip could get you a micro dot template?! Maybe?? Something I may have to try myself!! 😁👍
Dude, this is why you are my favorite airbrush youtuber. My place looks like Sandford and Sons because I keep stuff that I know I can use for Stencils, or for making Halloween props and etc. You Rock! Keep it up Bro, love your stuff!
@@DACProVid lol!! Yup!! Could have saved a bit of coin.... 😉 there is always next time my friend!!😁 and yes!!!! Fire marshal Bill and the Horse Lady!! Jim Carey at his best!!! 😁😉 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Hey bro i bought one of those shiloette cameo 3s its a desktop plotter basicly but it cuts over 100 dif materials including stencil materal and frisket and a bunch of other stuff u can import pic s and use them a as cut masks its pretty cool
Another awesome money saving hack ! Sometimes you get lucky at the 99 cent store or dollar store , you can purchase page protectors, they're clear , flexible, and. Are sold in multiple packs for only 99 cents + tax , I not only use them for stencils, I purchased a projector just like the ones we had in school, you draw on a clear piece of acetate, say a math problem, a light bulb shines up from the base and is captured by a magnifying glass then it's bent and directed toward the chalk board, and then with a few minor adjustments it clears right up and the whole class can see the math problem ! In my case I can sketch my outlines and enlarge or reduce the image to suit my needs ,and I found the projector in a thrift store for $8.00 bucks! I love it it saves so much time , I make mutipul copies out of paper and a master out of page protectors to put in the customers file , sometimes stuff happens and needs to be redone or touched up! My motto is C.Y.A. Ryan ,Broskie you might pass this little tid bit of info on to the army , I'm sure most of the army can come up with 99cents +tax IF they were not blessed with clear packaging from Christmas , and it can be a little embarrassing to get busted going through your neighbors trash trying to harvest clear plastic for stencil material Lol! I live in a retirement community and the gossip,and talking behind ones back blows harder and faster than the Santa Ana winds that come to southern California every winter, some people have nothing better to do than talk crap about you when your not in eye sight or hearing range, but act like they're your best friend when you are around them ! That's why I can't be caught trash picking looking for clear packaging to make stencils! I don't need friends like the majority of tennants that live here, I try not to make eye contact and mind my own business, they know I'm an artist and that's all they need to know.
Lol!! That's a great idea broski!! Thanks for the Intel Soldier!!😉 The BloodShot ARMY salutes you once again!!🤘😎 it's to bad about those people who have nothing to positively focus their energy on. 🤔I think you got the right idea! Stear clear and focus on improving yourself!🤓 You'll never change others, unless they themselves want to change... so all one can do is live life to its fullest, and be an example for others to look to!! 😁👍 as always my friend Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
You can use an exacto blade in a wood burner to cut through the thicker plastic like butter. You have to move quickly to keep a smooth edge, though. But it's worth not having to press so hard
Brilliant my friend!!! Two Great tips!! 😃Thanks for the amazing Intel soldier!! The BloodShot ARMY salutes you!!🤘😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🍻

Ryan could you please guide me thru the fields of thinners, reducers to the brand you find to be the ones you use more or less? As a beginner I’m finding hard to select the ones that I should get and stay with as well as should I start with quarts or by the gallon? I would also like to know where you gets and mixing cups and paper products and masking tapes blue, yellow and plastic covering. I know that this is a lot to ask but I want to start off right. Thx so much, Can’t wait to get started lol🤘🏼
Glad to have ya on Deck in the BloodShot ARMY my friend! 😁👍A lot of your questions and supplies can be sorted out at your local autobody supply store!🤓 Google maps should point you in the right direction!😉😁 thinners/reducers and cleaners are depending upon the type of paint... if you're planning on using the automotive urathane paints, then the bodyshop supplier will have what you need!🤘😎 if you're using the water based acrylics, then my mixture of 75% water with 25% FANTASTIK original cleaning solution, is all you'll need for any cleaning and thinning for any of these types of paints! 😁 I hope this helps you out my friend!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
For the kettering I used a Automotive urathane silver. House of Kolor. But for the most part, I'll use the AutoAir waterbased acrylics. I find their silver to be easy to work with. Hope this helps my friend!!😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Happy to be able to share my knowledge with ya broski!! 😁 Keep that trigger finger nimble and keep slinging that paint!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Hey brother, loving the videos, just getting back into airbrushing as a complementary addition to my leatherwork, your hack regarding paint thinners/ cleaning , what is " fantastick" I'm unlucky enough to live in the UK, and such a thing doesn't exist here, could it be plain old simple " dishwasher liquid", or could it be clothes detergent, ??? Art supplies over here cost an arm and a leg, so any way to save a bob or two helps a lot, I did try the, " chemical/alcohol / glycerine root, but naahh, not for me. Looking forward to lots more , might even download twitter and #bloodshot, cheers pal 👍👌
FANTASTIK is a all purpose household cleaner. Sold by Johnson & Johnson. I do have a list of the ingredients so you can compare to other cleaners. Also check the comment section of the Hack Video for other variants from other people. Hope this helps! P.s. I'm not on Twitter. But I'm on Facebook and Instagram for the #bloodshotarmy
Thanks for the video. One man’s trash is another man’s treasure 😂. Could you do a video on cutting the more detailed and elaborate stencils? I always mess mine up because I am not sure what to remove and/or what to leave behind. Keep the videos coming 🙏🏽.
You know it!! And I'll definitely make a few videos on stencils and how I cut them!! Thanks for the feedback and support!! Its greatly appreciated!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎

Nice hack Ryan, I have loads of this stuff lying around, I have used it a little, but I didn't think about using it to that extent. I shall get out my knives and begin a tour around the neighbors. Take care Bro !!!!!!
Love it broski!! You may want to go around at night, just so you wont scare the e neighbors.... hmmmm 🤔 nope, that won't work either. . Maybe,... leave the knife at home when you're making your rounds... lmao!!! 😉😆🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂😄😀 as always my friend!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Thanks for the Intel soldier!!👍 I know others have used a wood burning tool...🤔 I just dont have one at my disposal... lol Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
I have a kack for you .you probably already know but if not hope it helps use magnets to help hold you stencils down when work on metal like fridge magnet
Lol!! I've got a whole video dedicated to the topic of magnets my friend!! What can I say, Great minds think alike!! 😉 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
That's Awesome bro!! Thanks for taking this Hack to another level!! 😁👍 the BloodShot ARMY salutes you Soldier!! 🤘😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!
I'm a complete beginner, please could you put together a video on the steps you go through to prepare a surface ready for paint (if you haven't already) cheers dude 🤘
Can do my friend! I've got a helmet in the studio, simple job.. it will be a good on to show how I do! 😉 stay tuned!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
I thought I was the only one who saved every piece of plastic for cutting new designs lol. Awesome tips and great video as always. Great work on the tank looks amazing bro.
One more question what kind of clearcoat do you use on your items that are going to be exposed to sunlight. I saw a video where the guy stated if you use acrylic paint once it is exposed to sunlight it will fade away after a year or so?..
All my artwork is sandwiched between layers of automotive urathane clears. Just like if I had a new tank to add artwork to. Sand the urathane clear coat with 600 grit wet sandpaper. Spray the art, then reclear with automotive urathanes! Sand with 1200 grit to remove any imperfections in the clear, and polish. I have projects that I painted over a decade ago and still look great! Never had any issues with paint fading.... this is the first time I'm actually hearing this.... 🤔 mind you, we prolly get more snow then sun up here in the Great White North...🤓😉 but still.. I dont forsee any issues when doing it this way!! It's worked great for me for decades!!🤘😎
just got a starter kit from amazon got 3 brush sets with it just to get me going just took early retirement due to missis not well. brother fecking just droped on your channel subed feckin bostin tutes just got rid of me trike but guna be doing hobby bits for the grandkids to stop me going insane lol big respect for shareing ride safe ride free brother 😉👍✊
Love to hear you've decided to take on the Airbrush!! Keep honing those Skills and you'll master the tool!!😁👍 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Hey Ryan man, thanks for the video. Just wondering if you ever considered getting a cricut or silhouette? It's a plotter basically, and the explore air 2 is capable of doing stencils 12"×24". Could do them out of paper or light stick vinyl which would be ultimate when stenciling a curved object. theres a little bit of a learning curve with the software but once you get it figured out, cutting anything is easy. Also, with transfer paper, you can use the positive or negative stencil, whichever you want. Gonna pick up a bloodshot stencil set soon to support the channel. The videos are invaluable for anyone starting airbrushing.
Thanks for the Intel soldier!! I've got a buddy who owns a sign shop... if I need something cut, I'll get him to do it. I dont mind cutting my stencils. I've always done it this way. But there is no right or wrong, its whatever works! Lol!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Happy New Year my captain! Here's a hack I didn't see in the comments. Draw or print your template,shield or stencil on regular printer paper (or print it off). Then use packing tape edge to edge and tape up one or both sides of your paper. Trim it down, and U now have something as least at durable as your thinnest plastic. - Rick
Love it broski!! Thanks for taking this hack to the next level!! Your Intel is greatly appreciated Soldier!! 😁👍 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎

Happy New Year Ryan. More great ideas, Thanks. I also grabbed the cardboard from a 6-pack (after finishing them first hahaha) as it had some neat cutouts for holding the bottles
You got the right idea my friend!! There is a world of stencils out there!! One only has to look!! 😁👍 New Year's Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
I find the best way is to keep the airbrush spraying head on and avoid spraying at low or shallow angles. Also try not to spend to much time going over an area, I find it's best to get the paint laid down quickly and move on to the next area. This will help prevent "underspray" as well!! 😁 I hope this helps you out my friend!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Excellent job Colonel!! The gold looks awesome and laying it on the Oneshot is a hell of a hack. Thanks as always for sharing Dudeski. Be cool Mate 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
Inspired by you I'm playing with my new toys - airbrush and compressor. Thank you so much for that, I'm having A LOT of joy! I'm good enough with painting, just never used airbrush before. Are you known with the effect where when you finish the airbrush stroke and close the ink flow by the airbrush trigger - the airbrush always produces the last splash of paint? I can even paint dots just slightly pulling the trigger back (where there is still no ink flowing) and then releasing the trigger - and I'm getting dots just by this trigger-release movement... Looks like the needle squeezes out some amount of paint from nozzle channel when moving forward to "flow closed" position. Is it normal for all airbrushes, or is it just mine? How could I fix it? Or is it just the thing I need to learn how to deal with?..:)
Hmmmm.... hard to say.. could simply be a bit of paint left behind that gets trapped, then shot out as the needle is returning to its position in the nozzle... could be the the needle/nozzle aren't seated properly due to a bend in the needle tip, flare in the nozzle end or even a bit of dried paint. 🤔 really hard to say with out being able to physically see it.... you may have to remove the needle/nozzle and clean the really good then make sure they're seated properly and hopefully that gets ya going! I hope this helps you out my friend!😁 Glad to have ya on Deck in the BloodShot ARMY! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!! 🤘😎
Thank you for the tips! I really appreciate you've replied.:) If I find the solution to this - I'll post it here. Everything is sealed properly, I've even applied some marine-grease to the threads when re-assembled it, but I have one suspicion: I see the nozzle does not stick out of the nozzle cap at all, it is flat with it... As I've seen before is should stick out just a tiny bit, for proper paint suction. Will try to fix this, and I'll report here if this fixed the issue - just to fill your knowledge base by possibly one more tip..;) Thanks again for all your really interesting and inspirational videos! Love your attitude.:)
I've found the solution to this finally: bought Badger Sotar 2020-2F.:)) No such problems anymore. I have not been able to figure out the exact reason of the "trigger release" issue with the previous one, I think it's just the whole low quality of the cheap Chinese airbrush - I cleaned it, I polished the needle and the nozzle, I shortened the aircup (so that the nozzle protrudes a little bit more)... the problem is still there. But with my new airbrush - it's just smooth like butter.
@@bubukis I'm glad to hear you got yours self set up! A soldier is only as good as his equipment!😉😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Even when using brand new blades in your X-Acto knife, make yourself a stropping board. Stropping a new blade will not only let it cut better, but your blades will last much longer. Therefore you have to buy blades less often, saving money.
Mostly Water based acrylics! Mostly... 😁 I'll use the House of Color urathane candy colors every now and then!! But you have to lay those on last if you're planning on using both! I hope this helps you out my friend!!🤘😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!
Great video and tips, bro, I literally have boxes of this stuff, just waiting to be cut up. Btw, have you thought about getting a Cricut (or alternative) for this stuff? Seems for this field, it may well be worth the investment (usually around the $200 USD mark, sometimes less).
Thanks broski!!😃 I'm happy to be able to share my knowledge!! 🤔😁 I've got good friends that run a sign shop. I trade artwork for stickers! 😁👍 I'd much rather do barter work with my bros and this gives me a reason to leave the studio as well... 🤔 being all cooped up for weeks upon weeks, it's nice to get out and see the world!!

You're welcome, any time! Keep up the great work and thanks a ton for the help you give as well. And yeah, I def get the bartering w/friends thing, and cabin fever too. Soldier on!
@user-tm1yb9fl2d the plastic can be found in packaging of items. Just try to make sure it's not too thin, like a plastic bag.. any clear plastic that has some stiffness should do. Alot of toy have the clear plastic window for seeing inside the packaging. Those work well, but be creative and look around when shopping.. you'll be surprised how much clear plastic we are surrounded by.... lol Hope this helps! Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!! 🤘😎

I appreciate the thought!! But I've been doing it this way for as long as I've been spraying. I make all my own stencils or used found objects. Dryer sheets are one way to achieve texture.

Amazon is the place. I hope this can help contribute a little back into your studio for all the value you have saved us.
Thanks for the Intel my friend!! And for the amazing feedback and support!! 😁 its greatly appreciated!!👍 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
The wet stone you used for your airbrush needle . On video 5 fixing bent needles . I resharpen my Xacto blades with the wet stone . A couple swipes and good to go again . Thanks for the videos

Oh ok thx I didnt know you could use acrylics and then put urethane on top. I'm learning so much from you thx alot.....
😁👍 just be sure to apply the urathane paint last. Or any water based paints you try to put over a urathane paint will literally disappear as the clear coats are applied! The clear will pull the urathane paints through the water based acrylics. just a little F.Y.I. 🤘😎
This video shows just what kind of arts you are.save money make your own cut outs saving time don't haft to wait on shipping haha like you art teaching abilitys good stuff.you got my vote.
Thanks for the amazing feedback and support my friend!!👍 I've never purchased a single stencil. I cut them all out by hand. Been doing it this way for 25 + years!🤔😁 If it ain't broken, don't fix it... lol 😉😊 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻

Putting out a sheet of making tape and cutting that into a sticker appears to work really well too
You bet!! Many ways to accomplish anything my friend!! Glad to have your Intel included Soldier!!😉👍 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
General Crewchief checking in. Lol. Anyways, I have a stack of transparency film from back in the day when school used actual overhead projectors. Cuts really well, I just print a template, tape it to the back, and cut away. However you have to be careful on curves. Try to pull the cut without stopping and starting, you'll get little "square" spots that will show up when you spray. You can find transparency film sometimes at garage sales, schools that have old stock, even office supply stores will clearance them out. Bonus tip: I used to pay top dollar for "frisket" film labeled as frisket. Well with a Michael's coupon for $5 I have found this stuff called "Magic Cover". It's not labeled as a frisket, but as a cheap way to laminate stuff when you don't have a lamination machine. It's got a 1" grid backing paper to help cut it square, is super clear, super thin, and cuts really well, is archival acid free on the adhesive, and has the perfect amount of tack. Comes in 18" width and you get a crap ton. Doesn't crinkle like some other frisket, is easy to lay down bubble free with a putty knife, and restickable if you need to place a section back.
Thanks broski!! Once again your Intel is Amazing!! All great info!! I've also heard of people using the access cut off lamination pieces as well. You can get these from schools or even library's!! 😁👍 I mostly wanted to show that you can find this stuff anywhere, if you look!! 😀And you provided some more great examples my friend!! The BloodShot ARMY Salutes you General!!🤘😎 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!
@@BloodShotAirbrushing Thanks! I don't even buy shields or guides anymore, but I do still with I had a laser etcher or something, caused I would love to make some of the really fine texture stencils. Like the micro dot one that Dru Blair sells, but I'll be dammed if I'm paying $50 for a stencil. 😂
@@Crewchief227 man.... if he can sell them at 50 a pop! Good on him! But I'm far to cheap to afford such luxuries! I've always made my own... I've bought and got given a few drafters circle templates! 😁 and they do come in handy!! But, as I said.. the pros had to start somewhere... if they can do it! So can anyone else that puts in the time!! 🤘😎
@@Crewchief227 just had a thought...🤔 a wood burning tool with a fine tip could get you a micro dot template?! Maybe?? Something I may have to try myself!! 😁👍

Another awesome money saving hack ! Sometimes you get lucky at the 99 cent store or dollar store , you can purchase page protectors, they're clear , flexible, and. Are sold in multiple packs for only 99 cents + tax , I not only use them for stencils, I purchased a projector just like the ones we had in school, you draw on a clear piece of acetate, say a math problem, a light bulb shines up from the base and is captured by a magnifying glass then it's bent and directed toward the chalk board, and then with a few minor adjustments it clears right up and the whole class can see the math problem !
In my case I can sketch my outlines and enlarge or reduce the image to suit my needs ,and I found the projector in a thrift store for $8.00 bucks! I love it it saves so much time , I make mutipul copies out of paper and a master out of page protectors to put in the customers file , sometimes stuff happens and needs to be redone or touched up! My motto is C.Y.A. Ryan ,Broskie you might pass this little tid bit of info on to the army , I'm sure most of the army can come up with 99cents +tax IF they were not blessed with clear packaging from Christmas , and it can be a little embarrassing to get busted going through your neighbors trash trying to harvest clear plastic for stencil material Lol! I live in a retirement community and the gossip,and talking behind ones back blows harder and faster than the Santa Ana winds that come to southern California every winter, some people have nothing better to do than talk crap about you when your not in eye sight or hearing range, but act like they're your best friend when you are around them ! That's why I can't be caught trash picking looking for clear packaging to make stencils! I don't need friends like the majority of tennants that live here, I try not to make eye contact and mind my own business, they know I'm an artist and that's all they need to know.
Lol!! That's a great idea broski!! Thanks for the Intel Soldier!!😉 The BloodShot ARMY salutes you once again!!🤘😎 it's to bad about those people who have nothing to positively focus their energy on. 🤔I think you got the right idea!

You can use an exacto blade in a wood burner to cut through the thicker plastic like butter. You have to move quickly to keep a smooth edge, though. But it's worth not having to press so hard
I buy the big bright plastic signs at lowes for about $2. Works great for larger stencils

Ryan could you please guide me thru the fields of thinners, reducers to the brand you find to be the ones you use more or less?
As a beginner I’m finding hard to select the ones that I should get and stay with as well as should I start with quarts or by the gallon?
I would also like to know where you gets and mixing cups and paper products and masking tapes blue, yellow and plastic covering.
I know that this is a lot to ask but I want to start off right.
Thx so much,
Can’t wait to get started lol🤘🏼
Glad to have ya on Deck in the BloodShot ARMY my friend! 😁👍A lot of your questions and supplies can be sorted out at your local autobody supply store!🤓 Google maps should point you in the right direction!😉😁 thinners/reducers and cleaners are depending upon the type of paint... if you're planning on using the automotive urathane paints, then the bodyshop supplier will have what you need!🤘😎 if you're using the water based acrylics, then my mixture of 75% water with 25% FANTASTIK original cleaning solution, is all you'll need for any cleaning and thinning for any of these types of paints! 😁 I hope this helps you out my friend!!

Its a long shot, but I'll take a chance. What type of silver paint did you use for that ? I find most that I get my hands on to be difficult to mix.
For the kettering I used a Automotive urathane silver. House of Kolor. But for the most part, I'll use the AutoAir waterbased acrylics. I find their silver to be easy to work with. Hope this helps my friend!!😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻

Hey brother, loving the videos, just getting back into airbrushing as a complementary addition to my leatherwork, your hack regarding paint thinners/ cleaning , what is " fantastick" I'm unlucky enough to live in the UK, and such a thing doesn't exist here, could it be plain old simple " dishwasher liquid", or could it be clothes detergent, ??? Art supplies over here cost an arm and a leg, so any way to save a bob or two helps a lot, I did try the, " chemical/alcohol / glycerine root, but naahh, not for me.
Looking forward to lots more , might even download twitter and #bloodshot, cheers pal 👍👌

One more question what kind of clearcoat do you use on your items that are going to be exposed to sunlight. I saw a video where the guy stated if you use acrylic paint once it is exposed to sunlight it will fade away after a year or so?..
All my artwork is sandwiched between layers of automotive urathane clears. Just like if I had a new tank to add artwork to. Sand the urathane clear coat with 600 grit wet sandpaper. Spray the art, then reclear with automotive urathanes! Sand with 1200 grit to remove any imperfections in the clear, and polish. I have projects that I painted over a decade ago and still look great! Never had any issues with paint fading.... this is the first time I'm actually hearing this.... 🤔 mind you, we prolly get more snow then sun up here in the Great White North...🤓😉 but still.. I dont forsee any issues when doing it this way!! It's worked great for me for decades!!🤘😎

Hey Ryan man, thanks for the video. Just wondering if you ever considered getting a cricut or silhouette? It's a plotter basically, and the explore air 2 is capable of doing stencils 12"×24". Could do them out of paper or light stick vinyl which would be ultimate when stenciling a curved object. theres a little bit of a learning curve with the software but once you get it figured out, cutting anything is easy. Also, with transfer paper, you can use the positive or negative stencil, whichever you want.
Gonna pick up a bloodshot stencil set soon to support the channel. The videos are invaluable for anyone starting airbrushing.
Thanks for the Intel soldier!! I've got a buddy who owns a sign shop... if I need something cut, I'll get him to do it. I dont mind cutting my stencils. I've always done it this way. But there is no right or wrong, its whatever works! Lol!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎🍻
Happy New Year my captain! Here's a hack I didn't see in the comments. Draw or print your template,shield or stencil on regular printer paper (or print it off). Then use packing tape edge to edge and tape up one or both sides of your paper. Trim it down, and U now have something as least at durable as your thinnest plastic. - Rick

You got the right idea my friend!! There is a world of stencils out there!! One only has to look!! 😁👍 New Year's Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
How do you prevent the paint from seeping behind the stencil? (Sorry if this is a stupid question)
I find the best way is to keep the airbrush spraying head on and avoid spraying at low or shallow angles. Also try not to spend to much time going over an area, I find it's best to get the paint laid down quickly and move on to the next area. This will help prevent "underspray" as well!! 😁 I hope this helps you out my friend!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎

Inspired by you I'm playing with my new toys - airbrush and compressor. Thank you so much for that, I'm having A LOT of joy! I'm good enough with painting, just never used airbrush before.
Are you known with the effect where when you finish the airbrush stroke and close the ink flow by the airbrush trigger - the airbrush always produces the last splash of paint? I can even paint dots just slightly pulling the trigger back (where there is still no ink flowing) and then releasing the trigger - and I'm getting dots just by this trigger-release movement... Looks like the needle squeezes out some amount of paint from nozzle channel when moving forward to "flow closed" position. Is it normal for all airbrushes, or is it just mine? How could I fix it? Or is it just the thing I need to learn how to deal with?..:)
Hmmmm.... hard to say.. could simply be a bit of paint left behind that gets trapped, then shot out as the needle is returning to its position in the nozzle... could be the the needle/nozzle aren't seated properly due to a bend in the needle tip, flare in the nozzle end or even a bit of dried paint. 🤔 really hard to say with out being able to physically see it.... you may have to remove the needle/nozzle and clean the really good then make sure they're seated properly and hopefully that gets ya going! I hope this helps you out my friend!😁 Glad to have ya on Deck in the BloodShot ARMY! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!! 🤘😎
Thank you for the tips! I really appreciate you've replied.:)
If I find the solution to this - I'll post it here. Everything is sealed properly, I've even applied some marine-grease to the threads when re-assembled it, but I have one suspicion: I see the nozzle does not stick out of the nozzle cap at all, it is flat with it... As I've seen before is should stick out just a tiny bit, for proper paint suction. Will try to fix this, and I'll report here if this fixed the issue - just to fill your knowledge base by possibly one more tip..;)
Thanks again for all your really interesting and inspirational videos! Love your attitude.:)
I've found the solution to this finally: bought Badger Sotar 2020-2F.:)) No such problems anymore.
I have not been able to figure out the exact reason of the "trigger release" issue with the previous one, I think it's just the whole low quality of the cheap Chinese airbrush - I cleaned it, I polished the needle and the nozzle, I shortened the aircup (so that the nozzle protrudes a little bit more)... the problem is still there.
But with my new airbrush - it's just smooth like butter.

Even when using brand new blades in your X-Acto knife, make yourself a stropping board. Stropping a new blade will not only let it cut better, but your blades will last much longer. Therefore you have to buy blades less often, saving money.

what does artist recycle the plastic from?
@user-tm1yb9fl2d the plastic can be found in packaging of items. Just try to make sure it's not too thin, like a plastic bag.. any clear plastic that has some stiffness should do. Alot of toy have the clear plastic window for seeing inside the packaging. Those work well, but be creative and look around when shopping.. you'll be surprised how much clear plastic we are surrounded by.... lol

Dude where you go ?? I came back to check your videos again
Awesome video bruh!! How did you do the red outline on the Harley lettering? Was the red a layer underneath? Keep up the awesome work... you’re a cool dude 😎
Thanks broski!! 😁 I hand pinstriped the red around the letters with 1SHOT paint. I hope this answers your question my friend!! 🤓 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!🤘😎
Great vids, sub'd. Newbie to airbrushing so these videos really help.
Thanks Broski!! Glad to have ya on Deck In the BloodShot ARMY!! Big Cheers from the BloodShot Studio!!
If you lived closer I would lend you my Cricut machine! Do you make your own TEXTURE STENCILS? If so how!
I appreciate the thought!! But I've been doing it this way for as long as I've been spraying. I make all my own stencils or used found objects. Dryer sheets are one way to achieve texture. But there are many different ways to achieve anything my friend!! All one need to do is be creative and see all objects as possible stencils!😉😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🇨🇦🤘😎🍻
"Quality Instruction!👍
Thanks Broski!! I'm glad you dig the Show!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!
@@BloodShotAirbrushing 👍✌!. Mad Boss Skillz!.
Which fantastic cleaner will work. Unable to find this one in the store.
I've only ever used the "original formula" so I hesitate to reccomend anything that I haven't used myself... with that being said.. in the description section of the Make your own cleaner Hack video I list the ingredients. This should assist you to check the other formulas. I hope this helps you out a bit. I also have a link for the original version listed from Amazon in the description section of most of my videos. 😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
@@BloodShotAirbrushing I have been looking at Wal-Mart. Can you send me a picture of the bottle. I want to make sure I get the correct one
@@sheripayne3728 there is a link in the description section for the original formula. There you will find a picture! I'm not sure how to attach picture here in the comment section... I hope this helps you out my friend!!🤘😎

Thanks my friend!!🤘😎
dude amazing never but never come on that and those plastics you can find everywhere around and i whas thinking to buy stencils to start airbrushing put them over pc screen draw them over the screen and just cut them like i said amazing this can save you hunfred or more on dollars or euros in my place thank you very much for this video
Thanks broski!! I'm glad you dig the hack!! 👍 just one way to save a buck!! Plenty more to come!! Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🤘😎
Don't ever throw a hole away dude. I'll look into it.😊 How do you know when you're bin is full of holes dude?????
Lol?? How?
sharpenings quicker than changing! haha
I'll have to try that one day! 😁👍
This is probably a dumb question, why do you keep those stencils if you only use them once? I guess everyonce in a while you do use them again?
I wouldn't want to ball them and throw them into the trashcan myself after working so hard to cut them.
Hey hey, hello broski, mis u n your dog

Well then🤔

That was fairly rude and uncalled for.... don't you think? 🤔🤨 in a world overflowing with hate, why add more? Why would you go out of your way to make a negative comment about a complete stranger.. 😐😑 I'm not sure what's going on in your life that you think that bringing others down will in some way bring you up? 🤨🤔😁 Instead, why not spread some positivity and see how you feel. ❤😀👌 because here is the thing my friend, going around casting judgment and insults upon others who you have never met... Will always say more about you, then the person you're trying to belittle. 🤔😁 some food for thought broski! 😁👍I'm all for constructive criticism. If it involves bettering the channel. 👍 But if you're just trying to pick on me... 😉😊let me tell ya, I'm completely comfortable with who I am!🤘😎 I see no reason to change! I laugh because I'm happy. 😀👍 I'm basking in positive vibes my friend!!!~~~❤~~~ Negativity drains, but Positivity Reigns!😀 I hope you take this into consideration before your next interaction with a complete stranger. 🤞😁 Big Cheers and Much Love from the BloodShot Studio!!🍻🤘😎
Sending positive vibes your way my friend!!~~~❤~~~
