In this introductory video, I answer several typical questions that I commonly receive regarding the use of miniature spray guns for scale modeling.

Tips for Painting Scale Models with a Miniature Spray Gun

This video is a step-by-step on how to use a miniature spray gun and answers some of the more common questions that modelers have about their use.  It also explains the three different types of miniature spray guns and demonstrates their versatility in painting scale models.

Iwata RG-3

The Iwata RG-3 has a long history with airbrush artists.  Despite its long time use in the airbrush community, it is relatively unknown to most modelers who seem to be confused by the gun style format.  The RG-3 is, in actuality, a large adjustable round pattern airbrush.  Currently, Iwata also markets the RG-3 with a fan cap conversion, but as I explain in the video, because there is no separate adjustment for the fan pattern, this configuration offers less than stellar performance.  If you want an airbrush with a properly functioning fan spray, you should consider the Iwata Eclipse G6.  This video explains the design of the RG-3, how I set it up, and how to use it.

Iwata LPH80
This video explores the Iwata LPH80, a miniature HVLP spray gun, and how it can be used for painting scale models.  The video compares the LPH80 to traditional airbrushes, highlighting its unique features and benefits, such as reduced overspray and bounce back, and a more even and smooth coat of paint.  The video also explains tip for using the LPH80 effectively.
