I think you mean to say “stencils” instead of pencils, if so then they can be bought at a few different places. Some are better than others, I explain it all in my eguide. Which you can find if you click the link in the description.

good video nothing i didn’t know but i might help you with your wording a bit they are called positive and negative stencils. I presonally like the first one you did the best. Also your right anyone can airbrush but the thing is if your in it only for money you will never become a true artist. You have to love your art to make it in the big timers game. Ipersonally do it mostly for fun and a bit of extra cash on the side but i love airbrushing like i love my family
keep it up. 5 starz

Thanks, will fix that, I knew there must be a name for them! I know what you mean by liking the first one, all artists like the freehand ones better. But this is a video demonstrating why it is easy to be an airbrush tattoo artist. Not a artsy artist. Its about putting on clear, crisp images on a body.I also agree with your statement that you cant be in it for the money if you want to become a true artist.

BUT this isn’t about being an artist, its about running a part-time business. 2 entirely diff things.I whole heart-edly agree with you though! If you are an artist, dont make it about money, if you love art dont become an airbrush tattoo artist, it will soon become a “chore” and you will lose the passion you once had.Thanks for the post,I would hate for someone to get into this business and destroy their love of art.And WOW! I watched your vids, you are truly great! love the family tribute!

ive see those and i dont know i was thinking of something gravity feed . i hope to eventually be doing motorcycle gas tanks fenders helmets etc.. oh by the way do u no if u can get more color contaniners for the hp-bcs cause theyr a bitch to clean every 5 min

Well if you want a gravity feed airbrush, Iwata also makes one of those, it has the same unclogging feature as the HP-BCS. Do a search in google for iwata eclipses and it will bring up their site. I have never used a gravity feed as it would be extremely difficult to do an airbrush tattoo with one!I dont know what you mean by having to clean them every 5 mins lol I go all summer without cleaning my bottles. If you have paint in them all the time, they will never dry or harden.Thanks!

I thing he means that he only has one spray cup and everytime you change colour, you need to clean and refill it. I have only one cup myself and I’m having the same problem.

Yeah we discussed it in private messaging. With the HP-BCS you have bottles, so you just buy however many bottles as you have colors. I am guessing you have a gravity feed. I dont know about those, there may be a way to have some sort of “bottle” that attaches to the top, but unlikely.If you search google for airbrush forum, they may be able to help anyone facing the same problem. I imagine it must be a pain having to keep cleaning and refilling each time!

The HP-BCS airbrush also has an unclog feature that is extremely useful! You just pull back the nut and it unclogs the airbrush, you dont have to take it apart anymore.It cost about $100, that includes a hose as well. Go to dickblick . com , they have them at the best price. I have 8 of them and they have never steered me wrong! Clean it regularly and you will have it for a lifetime.Keep in mind I have only used it for airbrushing tattoos, not art or models. So it may vary.Hope this helped
