JW did a fantastic job today using the new airbrush spray gun to begin painting his 3D printed Predator figurine. This session marked an exciting first step into airbrushing, showing great control and decision-making.

Exploring Airbrushing Techniques

JW confidently used the airbrush to apply a smooth black undercoat to his model. Choosing black as the base layer was a thoughtful decision, setting the figurine up perfectly for adding silver detailing later on. His steady hand and patience helped achieve an even, professional-looking finish.

Planning the Next Stage

What stood out was Jacob’s clear vision for the next steps of the project. By planning to layer silver details over the undercoat, he’s thinking carefully about contrast, depth, and overall effect — key skills in model finishing and painting.
