Hi Isaac

The painting is looking great. Would it be possible to get some information on how you do the masking, especially in some of the more complex areas. What tape do you use. What are the masking patterns made of. How do you butt one colour to the next and have a perfect butt with no over lap or gaps. You are painting inside by the looks of things. I have never used an airbrush, just standard spray painting gear. I guess there is little to no overspray with the air brush.

Sorry for so many questions.

Very nice! I'm surprised you don't get a variation in color without using a solid white coat, especially the lighter colors.

Hey David,

Thank you for your complements.

Well, about your questions:
1. I use standard office tape with various widths.
2. The masking patterns made off 2 mm carton cutting by lesser.
3. About the overlap and gaps question- I use the oblique lines on the masking patterns, so I know exactly where each pattens touches the other one.
4. You right about the over spray with the airbrush- it's very little.

best regards,
Isaac Najary

Hey rm,

Well, you right about this problem, I have to use some more painting coats to overcome the variation in the lighter colors.
But according to my calculations- it becomes lighter if you don't spay solid white color on places that there suppose to be white at the end.

Best regards,

Hi Isaac,

Your painting method is interesting. Normally the base, (main), colour would be painted first. Do you overlap the colours or just butt up very neatly?

I butt up very neatly.
