Heya folks!
Painting little stompy robots with an airbrush! Whaaaaat!?!
Yes, it's KERAZY isn't it? Hand paint large robot models and airbrush little ones. :D
Big thanks to my buddy and long term supporter Marc B who introduced me to the work of Angel Giraldez. We visited Marc in Sydney and he showed me the 2 books by Angel and I was blown away! Being deeply involved in the Japan mecha scene, I will humbly admit that I was quite clueless the developments of technique and style that have happened in the outside world.
Even though I have only flicked through the books, they made quite an impact and I'd really like to get copies of them to study further. I'd also had the idea in the back of my mind for 18mths now and once I received the 0.2mm airbrush to "review" (he he, use the heck out of!) I decided it was time to test it out!
So this is a first in many regards and very much an experiment that I'm excited to share with you. The overall finish is great and despite being my first small miniatures in a decade, I'm most pleased with them and hope the lessons I've learned and share in this short series of 3 videos will be super useful for you too in your painting journey.
Many thanks as always!
Linc

Man you've done it again Linc! Love this stuff!
I’m New to airbrushing and I think your tutorial was the most inspirational and educational,slow and steady and thin paint truly works,thanks
Most welcome and thank you for the kind words 👋
As a complete beginner to airbrushing this video is really useful in giving me a bit of confidence on approaching white armour. Great video, subscribed 👍🏻
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome job Lincoln! I've been doing a lot of warhammer figures lately myself and I'm loving it.
thanks and good stuff!
Grand job mate, and a nice tut video
thank you!
Thanks for your videos. It's massive help Sensei. I just started my Tau army. Wondered how would look your take on Shadowsun.
Hey Tomas, most welcome and thank you! Tau are a wonderful army, so full of painting opportunities. I hope to have the chance to do more in the future too. :)
A Stormsurge would be my suggestion for the next Tau miniature, it would be very interesting to see how your techniques transfer on to such a large model.
thanks Neil, will add to the list :)
You could paint a Riptide battlesuit. It‘s so much fun to paint these. But maybe I‘m biased because I have 3 of them (painted red in the colors of the farsight enclave). :)
Yes I am quite interested in the Riptide, good call and thank you!
Where can I find the other videos? I am patreon supporter
is there a way to achieve that with a .3 pistol? I can't afford a smaller one and I'm playing T'au
Haha I have the same mindset when it comes to applying paint. I always apply at least 3 thin coats for almost everything.
never hurts!
Hey Linc! I know this is older, but if you see this, what type of PSI are you working with when painting something this small?
can you do a video on charing effects? I've tried to make the end of a laser gun look as if it had been burned from all the laser fire, but I can't seem to get it quite right.
Black, copper, purple and blue are the colors I use to achieve this effect. I typically start with black and then go to copper and then purple and then blue. I build the colors up to the point where it would be the hottest.
What I struggle with is getting it to the right consistency. Sometimes it comes out looking fake. At which point I have to go back in with the corresponding color and taper that out a bit more to bring out the transitions of colors better.
Thin coats also seem to help the most in this situation.
The use of inks is also helpful for tinting. I recomend FW inks, just remember to thin them down a bit because these tend to be a bit thick in pigment imo.
Sure, @Wasp, that's something for the future :)
Why did you use a different airbrush to prime?
I am new to airbrushing for 40k. What airbrush do you recommend, best for cost and best overall?
Thanks!
Hi! I changed airbrushes between solvent and water based paints. For which airbrush, I will have both a a youtube video and article up on my blog shortly. Please consider subscribing to both - I will expedite them for you.
Thanks! Linc
My good sir what art thou opinion on Tamiya acrylic paints. Are they good for painting gunpla??
zaid diaz yes, Tamiya paints are wonderfully high quality and perfect for Gunpla 😃👍🏼
Paint on Plastic by Lincoln Wright oh ok thanks. But ACRYLICS in specific, is it good for gunpla?
What makes certain colors more translucent than others?
their opacity and pigment make up. :)
@@PaintonPlasticbyLincolnWright Is this something you've just learned to identify with experience?
@@Calx9 yes you pick it up very quickly when working between colours and brands. It's not a bad thing, just something we can remember to use for our advantage on the next try!
@@PaintonPlasticbyLincolnWright I know it was a silly question but I really appreciate you humoring me and honestly :) I cant wait to jump into this new hobby!
@@@Calx9 now you will laugh, yours is easily one of the best questions I've had recently. Usually it's "where do I buy what you have?" even though I list shops at the end of the videos... DOH! :D
>tau
what xenos heresy is this? they look great!
hahaha, yes I better get some balance with some Might of the Imperium too!
@@PaintonPlasticbyLincolnWright yes! Maybe some marines or guard lol
psi?
Kimder eggs with arms legs and weapons
Comes with free chocolate!
Is this the cheatmode of warhammer 40k ?
Give them a manta
haha, good call, such a sweet model. ^^
You apprenticed with Kow-chan? #Darth_Vader_Impressed_Mask
I should ask him about this.
by all means Darren, just remember to use the Japanese pronunciation of my name. "Lin.Kさん" or リンカーンさん。＾＾
I wish I knew the name of the person behind this video... anything about the person who does all this painting, talking and title creation... narcissist.
