painting

Good afternoon!I just finished building an FT Bushwhacker! Even though I’m by no means an artist, I’m proud of the work!🙂 I’ve gotten some positive feedback regarding this paint scheme and it made me want to start a thread on decorating our planes and ultimately, bringing more color and...

How to get such a high quality finish? Starting with Plain white styrofoam that the kit came in and ending with the below effect.

Hi guys, Maybe I have missed it in the videos, but I want to get into airbrushing my flite test models and have a question on methods. What airbrush compressors/paint/sprayers/etc. are you guys using? What should I get to start with? Also when do you airbrush your models? After you build it...

Ok Group has anyone tried to SilkScreen EPP Foam? I was thinking for doing Names and logos a basic screen print would make stuff faster.. Please post in here.

Hi there! I have a suggestion for a forthcoming episode: do a foamie-painting tutorial. I noticed your foamies are always excellently painted, so therefore I assume you have some hints which could be useful to share.
