- PLEASE DIRECT ALL MODEL CAR QUESTIONS TO DONN YOST AT HIS WEBSITE WWW.OLDMANSMODELS.COM. This is an extended preview of the 90 minute instructional video "The Art of Airbrushing Show Quality Model Cars." If you would like to order the DVD, or have any questions about how Donn does his cars, please visit www.oldmansmodels.com.
All great advice, I been building models for 15 years and have won a few local shows and I'd be embarrassed to put mine even close to yours. You've truly mastered the art of modeling.
I didn't know Burt Reynolds made airbrushing videos!
It is my unfortunate responsibility to inform everyone that Donn Yost passed away on August 30, 2023. Please keep is family and friends in your thoughts. Thank you Donn Yost for sharing you knowledge, skill and creativity and thank you for allowing me to help share it. You will be missed.
i like watching your video i learn more a more all the time i wish you were still on youtube still thank you mr. yost
He is!
Dude, are you serious!? You've basically turned your paint job skills from real cars to scaled models. It's insanely awesome! Even my car from the factory wouldn't have this quality of paint.
45 yrs ago I used to build model cars, trucks, boats.. Revell, was always my favourite "go - to" brand and some of those plastic resin kits would sure have looked spectacular (much like yours) if only I had a airbrush instead of a soft bristle horse haired paintbrush. Streaks from the bristles were always a common problem even if I lightly coated the final application with a thinner. Oh, those wonderful smells of Tester Paints in a glass bottle!
Hey, thanks for sharing your tips! You do great work...I really benefited from your information!
When a guy, in a sleeveless shirt, says, " there's one thing about it" , you can bet your sweet ass.......there is more than ONE thing about it.
Hey thank you for taking the time to make this video!!
Great stuff! I recommend a small paint booth. You have a lot of overspray in the air.
I couldnt believe it when i watched this vid. I haven't built a model in 25 years. This '67 chevelle is the one i chose to build. And we chose the exact same color.
As you can see here people. Possibly the first ever Airbrush Tutorial on TH-cam.
nice video. i finally broke down and got my first airbrush kit. I've made a lot of nice cars with rattle cans but i have to say its much easier with the airbrush.
@oldmansmodels
Great video, u do great looking work. I was wondering, do you use a primer on ur car bodies before u put on a base coat. Because every time I try to use a primer my paint jobs don't turn out so good. I normally don't use a primer and my cars turn out great. Any info would b helpful.
Thx
How long does it take for your DVD on airbrushing to arrive. I ordered the Paasche H Set Airbrush Kit and the TC-20T Tank Compressor from TCP for $140.00. Hope I did the right thing. Thanks, Bob
That is some ''BITCH'N'' work man !!!!!! Is that aluminum foil for the chrome ? Really dig your flavor of HOT RODS...........
RIP Donn.
How do you get the wipers to stand out so well, do you use foil tape, please can you help
Simple, clear, and straight down to the point without the heavily sugar-coated BS. Great video on model air brushing. Keep up the good work, Donn!!
mr yost do you have a lone wolf decal for model cars if so i would to buy one thank you mr. yost wayne
Great video!!! Would this happen using Badger 200/0.5mm nozzle , whats your opinion sir?
it looks like it might around40-45 psi. i have the same h series he does and i used it at that psi, it shoots pretty nice : )
MAN I have fallowed your work since the the very 1st. issue of Scale Auto I ever bought ' & I have building models for the last 45 yrs. of my life . A lot of the early ones I had built were A lot less than perfect ' no matter what I built my stupid older brother either set on fire or blew up with fire crackers . It got to the point that if I wanted to keep them ' I would build them & hide them from him ! Now over the yrs . I have got buy w/ just rattel cans & have built some impressive models ' but nothing of your skill level . Now that Im on diss. building models is all I have left to keep me from being totaly INSANE !!! sorry about the book Im sendin u . Keep rockin the models man Jimmie R
Where do you get your drag racing wheels because I want to build and paint a drag build supra because I am a import fan but I also enjoy working on muscle cars
Hey, help needed here please. I just bought an airbrush and compressor kit. I purchased a variety of premium Vallejo acrylic paints pre-mixed thinners. My paint doesnt come out like yours so wide and free flowing. I have only a 0.3mm nozzle and waiting for a 0.5mm. I'm doing muscle cars 1:24. Am I doing anything wrong? I tried candy black which was ok but gold ran like water. I would preferably like to have mine running like this video. I'd also like to know what PSI your on because it sounds high. Thx from Canada. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.
Do u have any videos of how to mix the paint?

I am 51 and getting back into modeling. Not good at wethering and detailing like plug wires and tips??
Salut my friend super car super video subscribe subscribe ...
Burt Reynolds body double??? Lol seriously though,nice video,thanks!
just thinking the same. Burt died yesterday though...
So you don't clear coat over the enamel you just sand it straight?
U gotta lightly polish it compound or clear coat it but you can't let dust and dirt get in to it or u will have to wet sand the clear coat and polish compound that it's a lot of work
i have bout 2 model cars ( a revell 57' flipnose vette and a revell acura rsx 3 in 1) and nethier of them fit properly resulting in a bad looking model and i do all the steps the exact way they say and i need some help.
no you dont get it.Iam german and translated into german it sounds like your pets traying to eat your kids^^

EtownProd2 Thanks Mate!

Awesome work!
Ru in Edmonton Alberta? Just curious I am. Just getting started into this hobby. Thanks for the videos. I’m really enjoying them.
Great models to work with (no pun). Shame we don't have those in 1/10, that I know of anyway. (Ok, little pun. Oh fuck, I did it again)
thanks! these tips and techniques realy helped me make some of my best car finishes yet.
What grit? Sand paper just wondering.
beautiful work brother
@oldmansmodels thanks for responding back to me. I'm working on a 1979 El Camino Car, and a 1978 el camino Model. I'm trying to build a mii me for my car and that color was what I was looking for. The actual car will be house of kolor planet green w/ house of kolor yellow candy on it w/ house of kolor yellow flakes. the flakes have been also discontinued so I have been told, but I already have them =-)
Hi all,
I ordered both of Donn's DVDs three weeks ago but have not received them yet. I have emailed Donn through his website several times with no reply. How long should it take to receive them?
i want to learn more and more from you thank you Mr. nobuddy
Nothing on mixing the pant, type of paint . Nothing about the body prep other then use small pieces of paper.
That’s because this is a PREVIEW of the feature length DVD available at oldmansmodels.com. All of that content and more is on the DVD.
Question- I clear with Pledge, and can never get my models as shiny as yours, is that possible with that product?
Mine suck compared to these lol. I mean, mine are good, but nothing compared to these.
Good old Paasche model "H". My go to airbrush for 40 years. I've spent $100s on fancier airbrushes over the years, but when I want ease of use and cleaning, and consistent results I reach for my old model "H" every time.
We use masking tape in painting real Cars 2. However, there are some pitfalls to worry about. The cheaper the tape, the more likely the tape is to leave residue behind. Such as glue. Blue tape, is a multi-surface tape. It is for taping together two types of surfaces that are dissimilar. Yellow tape, is designed to trap and lock in dirt. As well as fill large voids in panels, thus keeping down the turbulence as the gun moves over the surface. My recommendation is 2 fine line with 3M fine line tape, vinyl is good for making turns. And lock down your fine line with 3m green tape. The system was created to trap your color on the edge. This is known as The Edge lock system. Your color should not bleed through the tape if done correctly. Thus making crisper cleaner lines. As it is true on real cars, it should also be true with model ones.
early tips are still good for anyone like me working on warhammer 40k with airbrush. clean paint jobs need space as dust free as possible for a smooth finish.
of course given i paint that and in scale model i go for military aircraft....weathering is our game lol. making them look used and like theyve been in real scraps.
but i can still appreciate a showroom image for car. i have a dual action gravity feed so may take these tips on should i ever do cars again.
What paint do you use?
At 6:11 does he say the car was already clear coated? Something I don't understand is if the car was clear coated then how did he remove the scratch from the paint? Did he have to rub down passed the clear coat to get to the base coat and then apply new clear coat when finished? Unless the imperfection was on the clear coat and not the paint?
Boys and girls? Women do this hobby too?
Please direct all model car questions to Donn Yost on his website or youtube channel. I only make the videos.
This guy is an awesome modeler, but I put models together for me..Bottom line is to not stress yourself out to get to his level, but strive for what you like.
ck out that over spray!
Fantastic work, and helpful! Thanks!
What is the model number of the paasch airbrush kit. I want to purchase one and there are many different ones on the paasch web site
This is by far the best video I’ve watched for model painting. I wish he was my neighbor. Guru of painting
Hmm, I'd recommend using stands for the body and the hood that are much more stable... Just in case you bump the table or something, which would be disastrous.
great video sir. Very good info. Thank you. Oh and I subscribed so I can learn more. Thank you
Want to use the same methods to paint the scales on a Victorinox but want to keep the logo exposed. Is there a way to coat the logo to make it easier to remove paint and re expose it?
Simple tools, excellent results. Modelers seem to want to over complicate this sometimes.
What color Red is that?
@mds13696 I'm sure he has his paints color matched at an auto paint store and has them custom blended.
Gah it makes me sigh. I airbrush gundam stuff and the last one I did was about 600 bits :S. Wish I was into the cars seems more satisfying! Not so much of a headache! I might get this DVD...
siphon feed or gravity feed?
What about giving it a little "Over 9000!!!!!!"
HI; YOU SAID YOU USE 4,000 / 6,000 and 12,000 sand papper,,, Did you mean 400, 600 and 1,200? I never seen wet sandpapper more then 2,000. Where did you get them?
Please direct all model car questions to Donn Yost on his website or youtube channel. I only make the videos.
No, it doesn't. You'd have to ask him about it. You can ask him on his website.
I have an outside shop that's quite large (15x25). I have a window a/c unit but no heat. At what air temp is too low to paint ?
Dennis Henrich the temp I like to keep my paint for painting and for drying is around 65°-70° is ideal!
Dennis Henrich 10 degrees below what your furnace is set to. Per say 25 celcius or 65 farenhite i qouldnt go 5 degrees below that even but 10 degrees at most
Hey what size is the 56 is it a 1.18
@EtownProd2 HAHA you should change the title to Direct all questions to DONN YOST ... Looks like no one reads the info below the vids
Great video’s my friend
You should build a model demolition derby car check mine out thanks
What psi do you run the compressor at also do you use acrylic or enamel paint?
I don't know why he only does muscle cars. You'd have to ask him on his mesasge board. He answers all questions posted.
I never even thought of using wet and dry is this any good for removing dust out of top coat of paint
Nice video and a Thumbs Up.
In this video a Paasche H airbrush was used, while I use a quite similar Badger 350. Both these airbrushes are in fact bottom feed external mix. I use an operating pressure of 30 psi (measured with trigger depressed): how much psi are used in this video?
Any tips on how to make the tires looks more rubbers then plastic glossy black?
+keviL That is actually covered in the "Tips and Tricks for Building Show Quality Model Cars." two disc set. You can get the set at www.oldmansmodels.com.
keviL sand them
Lightly sand the tires with 300 or even 400 grit sandpaper and will make them.look.like used on the road
You want more content. The entire DVD is available at oldmansmodels . com for purchase.
Very nice.i have a common question for beginner.how do you mix the paint and how much air pressure you have used?thank you
gideon macalino If you buy the video, Donn tells you how to do all of that. You can get it at www oldmansmodels.com.
+EtownProd2 why old man? He is not old man
That's what he calls himself. I didn't do it, he calls himself, The Old Man. I have nothing to do with it.
35 psi is sufficient for models trust me
oldie but a goodie! thanks bro
does somebody know how to make doors for a die-cast 1:18 please respond
the title tells us that this vid is a "preview" for a DVD that he sells. If you want more content, you'll have to pay for it.
it is a paash h-5 theres a kit for 100 bucks at paash website
It looks like a piece of pipe or something taped to the part
Nice paint jobs!! Now i know why i got discouraged 😲
wow they really are show car quality
thank you mr.yost for this video i love it
can you show your model car collection or is there already one
That last one was amazing.. I am speechless.
My hardest part about painting is flames. Does your video touch on this?
Still trying to learn. I just never can seem to get that smooth glossy finish..
where do you get the gold powder specs you put in the clear coat
do u put decals on after clear coat and polish or do u put them on first and then clear coat and polish
Amazing cars. Thanks for advices.
