Pt2: How to airbrush true fire with water based paints
Вставка

- Part 2 of 2 on how to airbrush true fire using water based paints. All the true fire tutorial videos ive seen have used solvent candies so i thought i would tackle it from the water-based perspective.
Im no true fire expert but these two videos will teach you one method for airbrushed fire which you can then go and create your own flames using your artistic ability.
Well done!!!! You were absolutely right when you said that people tend to over use stencils. Yours has a more natural flow and looks great!!!
Great video ! ... nice to see this in a calm/relaxed environment and that the fire is built in a structured manner !
Just started airbrushing and ran across your video. And fantastic great tips! I look forward to seeing more!
Thanks for taking the time to actually explain what you are doing. As you said, there are plenty of true fire videos out there, but yours is the first one I found with clear steps/explanations in between the time lapse bits. So thanks again! I am subscribing now!
JF Remillard :
Most informative true fire for water based paints I have seen. Good job, I will be following your tips.
Nice video with great demonstrations on how to do the flame they look great
I just got into this airbrushing hobby.This will be my first flame art.thanks for the vid on water based paint.
This is my first successful attempt at true fire. I love how you do your best to give detail into what you are doing so the rest of us can follow along. For that I thank you. I don't think mine turned out too bad. My kids think it looks way better than my previous seaweed attempts. It would not let me load a picture in this message or I would be glad to share.
What a lovely guy Svee seems. Not afraid to share his knowledge with us. Even though w all know tht Sve has a special Git that makes it look easier than it is. but I respect that a lot. The Bubbles effect video had me mouth a gape for a while day. Truly an awesome guy. Hopefully one day I can Commission Svee to do something for me. If he doesn''t have a 25 year waiting list ? Best wishes Svee
This is great! Loads of information and usable facts. I am just a newbie but i am finding airbrushing very exhilirating. When i get into the realistic fire practices i will surely send you some pictures.
Hi Svee, Just watched you True Fire vid using water based paints, real helpful. I'm very much the beginner, do loads of drawin but just startin to experiment with airbrush.
Great stuff, thank you.
ive always found that to help with the muddy effect by going over the black at the end but very lightly so not to muddy the colors
I like how you take your time and you explain very well
Thanks for making this video I been trying to do true fire for a while now having poor success but with your video you explain the steps very well thank you again for making this video it sure helped alot.
Like for the daughter hug and the awesome brush work!
Hi, I have been watching you videos for some time I am retired so I have some time to airbrush I'm self taught and a lot of your tips and recommendations helped a lot. So keep up the good work and again many thanks..
Excellent, I'm just a beginner but your work is trully amazing and your great to watch too and not scared to have a laugh, well done
@iscareuiknowit Depends. On this i used a rattle can of 1K acrylic clear. On guitars i use 1k, 2k, nitrocellulose, what ever the customer wants really. Most of the time its the Lechler 2K stuff though.
Svee, just wanted to say thanks for taking the time to share your work! You have been an awesome resource for me improving in skill! Thanks
hey mate love your work.been frusterating myself about 2 months now. was almost ready to throw in the towel. only having a hp revalution .5mm makes it hard to do detail. anyway, today i finally managed a layer that i think i can work with. that said, providing all goes well and i dont end up starting over again i will be happy to send you a pic of the finished product. wish me luck and lots of patience. im straying away from stencil use altogether. just looks better in my humble opinion. in any event, thanks for the tut, it is greatly apreciated
@svee I always wear a respirator with none water based paints. Thanks for all your help Svee, keep up the awesome painting!!!
Nice relaxing tutorial and very useful to a beginner like me. Thanks
Fire is hotter on the top. Hot air rises, because it's less dense than the air that's replacing it.

great video watched pt1&2 just waiting for my airbrush's and compressor to come going to use mine for resin models but i might just give this a go to get me used to an airbrush
Thanks for the videos. I have been watching loads of videos and trying to do real fire. My results have been poor at best, but improving. I can see lots of improvement in my flames after watching your videos. Thanks. I will post a video follow up after a bit more practice.
Learning a lot from your vids Svee thanks for taking the time to do these. Although I'm late to the party (57) & just starting out using water based paints & air brushing I'm going to be looking out for more of your great air brushing tutorials :-D..
All the best
Norms..
Thanks for the vids Svee, watched a bunch of them over the last few weeks and they have really helped me get started, will be trying the flame technique very soon.,,
I have watched this 50 times.... going to get it... eventually. THANKS Svee! Will be looking for more good advice.
@hockeyfreak043 Water-based is a good place to start mate yes. You can blow yourself up with solvent paints lol and you have to have air extraction and all sorts because of the fumes. Water-based can be sprayed anywhere pretty much. The paints i use are "Auto Air" and "Wicked" by Createx. I also use E'Tac, Com-Art, Trident, the list goes on. In a nut shell though just any water-based airbrush paint will do ;)
i think i need to watch this a couple more times but i learned a lot from it thank
This is the effect I want to achieve on some 28mm scale miniature figures.... A bit of practice with mini flames and wish me luck... If I achieve it I'll share it
You make that look so easy!! I can't do it to save my life
this really helps man. i just cant see lay out good flames but this helped thanks Svee
Looks to be very helpful! Ty I am an established artist... or so they tell me anyways, who is just starting the airbrush medium. Thanks for making the vid. Nice job too by the way!
@jclass13 Mostly Lechler 2K clear but i have been known to use Upol 1K acrylic, Nitrocellulose and cheap rattle can stuff too ;)
That's pretty awesome mate.
Good job!!!!
Brilliant work! Thanks for posting it
Hi Steve I use acrylic paints and just wondered how u would refuse that and keep up the great work mate I'm going to upload a true flame vid soon hope u like it
Thanks for your video, I'll try airbrushing flames, true fire,l don't all understand what you said,because I'm french, but I see your step by step.Thanks a lot
watch alot of vidios but think this one helped me the best . or you using 1-4 ration on all wicked paint for fire.
Super . Ja zaczynam się bawić aerografem ,zobaczymy co z tego wyjdzie . Pozdrawiam
great job svee love your work.
I like your videos Svee,, plenty of detailed explanations and well thought out. I followed your water droplets clip and was really impressed with how it turned out. Keep them coming mate. Can you give me your ideas on purchasing a good airbrush to do detailed work with. At the moment I have an Olympus, which was really a cheap buy, but got me going ..!!
can you show a flame tutorial on white background. your commentary is very helpful for me
@playNsleep Always possible mate. Im working with Rob on the ML2's with some custom jobs so i guess the same thing will stand with the ML3's. I'll need to check with him first though ;)
I Really Like What Your Doing,Looks Great!!
@trooper6967 lol my family think im a nutter too mate, you are not alone there ;)
I sometimes use a cleaning fluid if ive got a bit of a blockage in the airbrush but 90% of the time i use just water. It does the job most of the time :)
it looks good to me man i give this video a 10 of 10 on doing sometime new with wicked color your are the man
Buenas tardes....las pinturas que usas que marca son y cuales son las apropiadas para metal, gracias

Like the vid but you keep commenting on the waterbase as though its impossible to get the look of solvents. You can add gloss top coat to your colors to get the look of solvents putting the gloss in. It will add dimension to your colors but muck around a bit before committing to any mixture.
great video. was wondering 2 things,
1:if I were to use water as a thinner could I theoretically use any paint i want?
2:what kind of compressor are you using?
thanks.
nice ,simple flames cool tks whatabout BLUE FLAMES that my favor flame colour
hi,ive tried to make the flames like u did.i know its not even close but it helped me a lot..this is my first airbrushing attempt.im gonna try and do it again:)) can u do a tutorial like this but whit blue flames with water bas please?:))
awesome tutorial... great music... new subscriber
Just a thought: if you spray black (same type of paint used for the background) when done with spraying the colors, around the edges - applied both freehand and using stencils - would that perhaps make the flames more realistic? Cheers mate, great vid.
Yesssss :) I use for make flames my hands and finger like a mask, that why to the end i have made also a "body paint" hahahaha, don't warry it's water paint and you need only to wash your hand.... have you try this? Great Work!

I really like these videos, you're very informative. Nice work, and thanks!
for your 100th video... you should make a painting everything you've taught us
Thank you, Brother.. Great video, very helpful and loved the music too..
Great information here. New to airbrushing. Where can the Dibond material be purchased in the States?
nice video. I started doing my flames using water based transparents, good when you get to grips with layering and bleeding. i moved to specialist paints Inspire range and Wow, what a differance!! so deep and captivating..One question you might be able to answer, data sheet says use "D-thinner", what is "D-thinner"?? I use a normal 2K thinner and it works for me but if "D-thinner" is special or better i will change, or is this just a cunning marketing ploy so you buy from them?? thanks for vid.
@hprfire liquitex makes a clear coat i have been playing with it works well i dont think its ment for outside aplications just good for panels give it a go
hey svee i really like your work and i think more people should watch you, so why dont you work with rob chappers and do some custom painting for his ml3's when they come out?
@iscareuiknowit blimey, there are loads of differences between 1k and 2k but in a nut shell... 1K is pre-mixed, isnt as shiny and softer. 2K in in 2 parts that you have to mix (lacquer and hardener), is much harder (they use it on cars) and its nasty stuff to use. Just google "isocyanates" to see what i mean. You can get 2K clear without the isocyanates though (non-iso clear).
You can get nitro in a rattle can but you have to be careful with it. Its harmful to you/others and the enviroment.
Very good video of how to. And darn good music. Is that you as well?
tnxs 4 making this.
all the explanation helps a lot your a true teacher
probz
I have been a professional painter for over 20 years air brush as well. what are your tips for keeping the air brushes clean, I clean them after every color spray meticulously. I use Iwata and parts are quite expensive;
Nice video tks for demonstrating. What kind of clearcoat did you use? Tks
Muito bom! Estou aqui no Brasil vendo seu video!
Amazing work, i´m so interested in that, doing airbrush, so your vids do inspire me a lot. thx for that. will get the equipment and start my new hobby :D. Keep your tutorials going on mate ;) greets
very cool bro..really like your way..for to do this..
nice man.greetings from greece.
@trooper6967 that should have been when you use wicked colours do you use cleaning fluid or water between colours and cleaning
Aloha you have some great looking work
awesome. thank you so much for such a detailed 'how to'.
If I can do this half as good as you I would be super happy :0)
Hi thanks for the video, it's very helpfull, I have one question: I want to do it on a white background and the fire with blue tones, do you think it is possible? and how.
hi svee you have probably been asked this but when using the wicked colours do you use an airbrush cleaning fluid or just water?
great vidz by the way you have inspired me to get on ebay and spend some money on a few bits and bobs and see where i go with it.
and can i say your easy to watch and make me laugh out loud making the mrs and kids think im a loon sat in the corner earphones on laughing to myself anyway well done and keep up the ace vids take it easy Buck
@svee Sorry, other than rattle cans and water based airbrushing, I have no knowledge of paints. Thanks, do you have any suggestion on specific rattle can clears for guitars?
hi svee fantastic vids. im new to airbrushing and have just got some wicked detail paints to try ,i was just wondering what clearcoat you use please?
very helpfull video Smee ,would the auto air candies work better than over reduced wicked?
your videos are so entertaining to watch :) you've got talent! good job!
Very helpful cheers. 👍🏼😊
i have this badger 150 airbrush and i use 30 lbs on my compressor should i able to do this like that? and any idea if i can get those colours in the netherlands?
Thanks
@iscareuiknowit You are welcome mate. Cheers ;)
Cool work, thanks dude.
fantastic vid,,just what i needed to get a grip on the basics of fire,love the mauve [ purple red ] top left. Svee, can i use anything else to thin the water based paints instead of paying for it,,i mean can i not use a mix of house hold items ? thanks for the video
Hello mate i was just wondering what lacquer or clearcoat would you use for water based paints?
Thanks for the video's Svee... Became a subscriber to your channel as well...
Nice , The flame is hottest at the top though bro. 👌
Do you use any tips? or what are the tips used for? and the needles ?
If I'm going to paint flames on lexan bodyshells does that mean bright colour first?

Is it ok to use a single plane airbrush gun for water based flames ?
could you use french curves instead of stencils ??
Great video!
I'm a fashion designer who's been dreaming on putting fire onto my garments but water based sure are tricky.
I've been practicing purple fire a lot. And yes the fire sure don't pop and it look pretty misty like you said.
But I'll keep at it. Your video gave me great tips and ideas.
Cheers mate!
awesome work. what type of paper or poster do you recommend to paint on and to make your stencils?
whats the name of the paint .??? is water based paint good thing to start with ...iam a beginner
Oh, what kind of material did you paint these flames on?
