There’s that, and the first brush I was using was a bit dirty and a little played out.

Thanks, I appreciate you saying so, but you should have saw my teacher. I’m nothing next to him!

I’m glad you found it helpful, thanks for watching!

As soon as I get set back up with a space to paint I will do another one.

Glad you dig it! Where are you watching from?

Thank you! I appreciate you saying that.

Thanks for your support, I appreciate you. Keep practicing and don’t be afraid to try something new. It’s been one of the best activities I’ve learned. Thanks again.

Awesome! Let me know how you like them!

@ I definitely will.

@ I got my drag’s fly brushes today. They will take some getting used to how springy they are, but I really like them.

@ that’s good news. They aren’t for everyone but I’m sure after time you’ll see the beauty of them. They don’t leave as sharp and tapered end like the daggers, but they make up for that with comfort. Keep me posted!

@ thank you, from the little bit I used the #1 it seems to be a more universal brush.

Keep practicing, it’s worth it!

Thanks for the kind words. The right brush makes all the difference! I wouldn’t waste your time on the cheap brushes as they won’t perform the way you want them to and you may think it’s your ability, when really it’s just a cheap brush. Mack has always made a good brushes. I really like using Mack “the Virus” brushes for script lettering and fine detail. It’s up to your own preference, but check out Mack brushes.

@ ill be sure to check them out! i appreciate the response! keep on rockin 👏

Thank you, it’s a bastardized version of my teachers brush script. My teacher was amazing to watch, I only wish I could do what he could.

Thank you, I appreciate you saying that!

Good eye, drag n flys are my go to brush! Thanks for watching!

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks Mike!

Keep working at it, I’ve been at it for 20 years and I only figured out what works for me in the last few years. Don’t practice till you get it right, practice till you can’t get it wrong!

Hey, thanks for watching! I have a friend who works in a sheet metal shop and saves me the off cuts and scrap. Old hand saws work well as well.

I will paint on anything that paint will stick to. I have a friend who works in a sheet metal shop and he saves me the off cuts. Also I stop at the local second hand store and find celling fan blades and other items that have the proper shape. I’ve painted toilet seats, mail boxes and hand saws to name a few.

I prefer to paint on metal panels, but will just about paint anything I can get paint to stick to.

I have used sword/dagger brushes in the past. I really like Xcalibur brushes but have used the scrollers for quite sometime now. The Drag’n fly brushes have changed things drastically for my art.

@ I was using the Kafka #3 scroller I liked it, I recently changed to the Mack series 10 and forcing myself to learn that brush

@ I’ve used the Mack series ten in the past, but after I used an Xcalibur I was more impressed with them. They’re a little shorter than the series 10. Try one out sometime, I think you may be impressed.

@ I will order one up and give it a try

@ ten four, let me know how you feel about it.

Thanks Mike! Much appreciated!

These brushes are my favourite! Let me know how you make out with it. Thanks for watching!

I use One shot lettering enamel and Alpha6 enamels.

Thanks, I appreciate you saying that. As for the stand…. I found an old surgeons chair in a scrap bin years ago and used the arm rests coupled together to make this fully adjustable easel. I made a video about if you want to have a look.

@@PinstriperDave I need to check out the video. I’m just getting started and I’m looking for an adjust easel

@@samporazzo2178 it’s called Rig rundown.

Thank you Claire, I had fun paint these ones as as well as yours.

That’s great Mike, there were only a few folks asking to see it in that speed so it was kinda like I was doing just for you guys. I’ll see how it turns out and do more while my shop is packed up and being moved.

Glad you liked that. I should go through and redo some of my old ones in real time.

I’ll paint on anything that paint will stick to. I saw a bunch of fan blades at the local 2nd hand store and thought they were the right shape for my designs. Grabbed as many as they had.

That makes me happy Mike! Thank you.

You are so welcome! It makes it all seem worth it to makes these! Th more I watch your videos, the more I think we're cut from the same cloth.

@PinstriperDave i appreciate that man! I was taught how to pinstripe, but lettering and sign stuff I'm self teaching..

Thanks uncle Todd!

I’ll do some in real time, I’m just worried people will lose interest.
