Enjoying Brush Painting 🎨
#1 Enjoying Brush Painting 🎨
I got tired of cleaning my air brush and dealing with all of the idiosyncrasies thereof and decided to just use a regular brush with the Brodak dope I have on hand.

Had to thin the dope down a bit, but it still was nice not to have to deal with cleaning an airbrush.

Given the price of auto paint nowadays, there's actually a site devoted to "rustoleum paint jobs" on cars.... so my brother the restoration king tells me... LOL:) Sounds good to me!Rocket Babe wrote: Mon, 13 Jan 25, 19:37 pm![]()

I had an uncle who used a 4" brush to paint his 1954 Belaire with Weather Beater...

Am I thread jacking my own thread if I bring it back onto the subject of rockets

Never did get a picture of that Phoenix Bird I started painting... never finished the rocket either.
on the other hand, in the new NAR section I started at my church, we brush painted our rockets with some old acrylic craft paint we found in the youth room which hadn't been used in years.
I don't have a picture of my Estes Wizzard on hand as I didn't launch it that day.

It was fun not slaving over the process for once.
