    These are so good, and so affordable, I may well be buying a second Swallowtail, so I keep one dedicated to fan tip. If any reader is hesitating, don't. This is a great airbrush. I also own expensive Iwata, and been airbrushing almost 60 years.. This passes my approval and earns my full endorsement.

      I'm a rank beginner at 52 yrs old. You give me high confidence that I bought the right tool. I don't see needing the fan cap, as I only paint board game miniatures. But, but if in your expertise you'd say otherwise, please let me know.

    Suggestion when spraying metallics, fan or regular tip.. Apply paint from one direction only. I'm right handed and shoot left to right. Always spray your overlap traveling the same direction. the microscopic metallic flakes will lay different in the resin when sprayed opposite direction. By always spraying in one direction of travel, the flake lays the same across the whole surface and under bright light will have a smooth evenness in the flake reflectivity.

    I bought the fan cap when it was 1st realized. I plan to use it my multi-engine 1/48th scale WWII aircraft. I figured it would be more efficient way of priming the body & wings, less paint better coverage. This way I could preserve the small panel lines, rivets and other minute details. I think BR proved that when primed that car body, I could still see the variouse panel lines, really well afterwards. Plus that black primer is awsome.

    Great video, as always! In my working days, I worked for a very large airplane building company, and went to paint school to learn to paint airplanes. The spray guns we used were giant by comparison, but the principles were the same. With a Fan Cap, to get the most even coverage of paint, it is basically a 50% overlap on each pass. If you point the center of the airbrush at the edge of the coverage on the previous pass, the applied paint thickness will be the most even on the entire piece.

    I'm gonna knit pick so hard here, but I swear I mean well.
    If an airbrush doesn't have a fan cap air adjustment, you get what the demo shows after a few passes: overspray. The paint and air have to be dialed in so perfect, or else you get irregular patterns.
    I'd call it a "fan cap style" rather than an honest fan cap. I own a PS-290 by GSI Creos and its nearly impossible to get even stynylrez to get down nice and flat and even.
    Iwata makes relatively affordable spray guns with a fan cap adjustment that yes, need a beefier compressor, but I'd invest in that and be able to use my airbrushes.
    Having said all that, I love the channel and keep up the great work! You taught me a lot and no doubt you'll teach me more.

    • @ClarenceObert
      @ClarenceObert Рік тому +1

      I too have the PS-290 with fan cap and I had problems laying down stynylrez until I strained it through a 190 micron screen. Once that, I thinned it approximately 10% and it sprayed fine. Maybe I just got lucky? I do like the swallowtail, but I find I like my PS-290 fan cap better for that application. So, for laying primer on large areas, I'll go to my 290, for the rest, I'll use my Swallowtail. Unfortunately, that leaves my Iwata Revolution relegated to storage. BTW: I only use water based acrylics so I can't speak to how well either performs with lacquer or enamel.

    Man it's so amazing to see the difference between an Airbrush priming and spray can priming. Cans just push out way to much paint and if they cut that in half like those Krylon foil paint cans which I used for my Saninju it lays down a nice thin payer of paint and looks great. Just to spray a Matt Balck over a gundam body you have to make sure you got all of your movible parts safe from the paint cause it will ruin them.

    I have the ps290 was gonna buy this swallowtail to use the fan cap with the .7 needle nozzle but thanks for pointing out it only works with the .5. I do smart repairs and love trying new guns and brushes out. The ps 290 in a .5 doesnt distribute the mattalics in a way to match the general look of car paint when blending. They clog abit and are too close together. Had high hopes for the .7 with the fan cap. My smallest spray gun is a .8 and does the job so was hoping this swallowtail with the .7 and fan cap would get the job done on tiny blowins. Oh well hopefully one day they will make a fan cap to suit all the needle nozzle combinations. Luv the channel btw.

    I've got a full size fan cap air gun that came with my fullsize air compressor. I use it for spraying the BITTYDESIGN Liquid Mask on 1/10th & 1/8th RC polycarbonate body shells. This is so I don't need to filter it for the smaller airbrushes for the exact same reason as your old black primer.. A 1/8th bodyshell only takes a couple of minutes to get the proper coverage. The smaller airbrushes was roughly 15 to 20 minutes as you can only laydown thin coats & need to allow them to dry between each coat.

    I've been having trouble with black and grey stynylrez on my 0.5mm ace. Getting tip drying and clogging issues. Just ordered a swallowtail for the 0.7mm setup. Hoping that helps push this stuff through more consistently. The primer is a little on the thick side. I will definitely be switching to mr surfacer if i continue to have issues. If the swallowtail cant do it, then it must be the primer.

    • @ClarenceObert
      @ClarenceObert Рік тому +2

      Stynylrez will give you tip dry like crazy no matter what. At least that's my experience. That's just the nature of the beast with water based acrylics. I cut my tip dry down drastically by straining it through a 190 micron screen, and thinning it 10%. Hope this helps. BTW: I got a lot of clogging/tip dry with the .5mm fan cap with the swallowtail. Switched to the .7mm and it cut that down drastically. I'll use my .5mm fan cap PS-290 with stynylrez from now on. But, that's just me. The swallowtail, to me, is more comfortable over an extended paint session.

    I just ordered your Swallowtail brush. I can't wait to get it. I already have a 98D, but I weanted your pistol grip one as well. I DO have a question however. Is it a single action or a double action brush? It doesn't REALLY matter because I'll be using it primarilly for priming items, however, I was just wondering. Thanks!

      No, not as I understand it, only the swallowtail, maybe their standard trigger gun with a 5mm needle & nozzle. You should ask them about that though.

    So, the Fan version would be great for either base coats or applying the base color? Also, I noticed that when you were demonstrating the Fan version, that inside of your color cup there were air bubbles. Should that be normal?

    Love your channel and you have me wanting to use my airbrush again. I mainly use Tamiya Acrylic paints, well thats all i use and was wondering how to thin the primer for that paint? I have asked this question on other channels and never get a response. Was hoping maybe you can help? And one last question for you. I have a very old Iwata Revolution CR BC airbrush. I took it apart years ago and put it together wrong. So the spring and brass rod that controls the air supply is kinda kinked. Do you know where i can get replacement parts. If you can help me that would be awesome. Thank you and as of watching this video i need to get a fan tip for the Iwata if i can.

      @barbatosrex9473  Рік тому

      Are you talking about the Tamiya square jar primer? Those are kind of thin Soni would stsrt with 7 parts paint to 3 parts thinner and go from there. You can get parts for Iwata on Amazon or Spray Gunner. Just search the part name with Iwata in the search

And sorry to sound stupid here but i am very new to airbrushing even though ive had this one for almost 15 years. I always just used just straight paint. But please dont laugh what is 7 parts to 3 parts? How do you figure that? And my jars are round. Ok you can laugh.
