Spraying light coats of Auto Air Transparent Traffic Red with a few drops of Sparklescent Rock Star Red mixed in. I did not back mask the black color, I was just really careful when I sprayed the red and controlled the over spray.
I am using a few different airbrushes, the Iwata HP-C, Iwata Micron, and the Richpen Mojo at approximately 28 psi. I also went back and did a light dusting of straight Sparklescent Rock Star Red, thinned with 4011 reducer.
It’s time to do the back ground fade so I will need to back mask all the images; I like to use the clear Con-tact paper for jobs like this. You can get this at any big box building supply store. This works great with water base paints but I would not try this with Uro’s. Again using the # 11 X acto blades I carefully cut out around the images and weed out the exteriors.
To get this nice fade I first sprayed a thinned layer (4011) of Auto Air pearl white from the bottom right side corner upward to about the centre area. Next I mixed up 20 drops of Auto Air Transparent root beer brown with six drops of AA metallic Rus- sett, thinned with about 14 drops of 4011. I start to work the fade slowly keeping my airbrush quite a ways from my work as I wanted it to blend really smooth. Upon completing this I went back and dusted straight metallic Russett (thinned) no root beer, to bring up the level of FX. Next was the drop shadows with a thinned mix of root beer, marine blue and black. I then layered in a coat of AA transparent base to smooth out the entire project. Then off it went for clear coat.
