Airbrush Step by Step - October - November - December 2024

In dieser Angelegenheit

Cars, motorbikes, walls, helmets, clothing, cases and bags, laptops and mobile phones, furniture, musical and sports instruments, mugs and jugs and much more – you really can paint anything with an airbrush. This is one of the most important and popular features of the technique. Individuality is "in" and is the driving force behind "custom design", with which airbrushers can earn good money full-time or part-time – such as the Italian Davide Salvadori and the Argentinian Cesar Deferrari: Davide specialises in painting sneakers, Cesar in T-shirts. In this issue, Davide shows us step by step how to create a LeBron James design in the LA Lakers colours yellow and purple. Cesar takes us through a caricature design of a VW Beetle. Both artists also give further insights into their art in an interview

In the ice hockey nation of Canada, on the other hand, the business of painting goalie masks is big: David Fried is actually a tattoo artist, but when the season calls, he prefers to airbrush the protective masks of ice hockey goalkeepers. Czech artist Martin Cerny is mainly at home painting motorbike helmets and shows us a design he created for a military veteran.

Jürgen Grabowsky from Hagen is also an old hand in the custom painting business. However, the project he presents to us in this issue has brought him to the brink of despair. After numerous failures, the Harley Davidson Chicano bike was only completed after three years because the collaboration between the motorbike builder, the customer and the painter had hit a few snags.

So, time to take the customised vehicles and items of clothing out into the fresh air and show them off. Don't have one yet? Then get to the gun quickly and at least enchant a T-shirt or a pair of sneakers! Have fun with it!
