n our hobby, if there is one tool that burst in with force and radically changed the concept of finishing, it
was the airbrush. The use of the brush as a tool for painting and applying effects continues to be a safe
value, because of the control one has over it the ease of use.
However, without the airbrush, there is no way to achieve such a uniform and fine finish with a method that
accurately imitates how most life size subjects have been painted in a reduced scale. With a little practice,
you can also recreate complex camouflage patterns and apply fine lines and effects that would be impos-
sible to achieve with a brush.
Indeed, both the airbrush and the compressor are expensive tools within the range of materials and prod-
ucts that we usually use on a regular basis. Given the years of enjoyment they bring with minimal care and
basic maintenance, the airbrush radically improves your finished models, making them a real value for the
investment.
Once you have made the decision to assume the cost, the next question is what brand and model of air-
brush to buy? What type of compressor to choose? How do they work and what is the correct way to handle
them? What are their most outstanding characteristics? There are considerable choices to be made and the
different systems and qualities can be confusing and even discouraging. All of these critical aspects can be
easily understood, and the TWM team will provide you with enough material and information to replace
doubts and fears with fun and outstanding results.
Because the world of airbrushing is rich with information and holds many doubts and questions to clarify,
TWM’s has dedicated two issues of thorough content dedicated to airbrushing. In this first issue you will
learn the fundamentals of the airbrush, as well as the different "power sources" and complimentary acces-
sories for your airbrush. Some of the world’s finest scale modelers will help you understand the differences
between single and double action airbrushes and the most suitable purposes for each type throughout
these pages. You will be shown how to dilute the different types of paints in order to maximise their charac-
teristics. The most experienced modelers will benefit from our examination of common mistakes and errors
that commonly occur during use and their corresponding solutions. Equally important is correct cleaning
and maintenance techniques both for the airbrush and the compressor, as well as the different accessories
used to ensure years of enjoyment from the key to the best finishes and weathering effects possible, the
airbrush.
