Hi guys and welcome to my channel. In today's video I'm going to be using the
Usta spray paint. I'm going to be using an aftermarket
skinny cap on the cans. I'm also going to be painting on some
glossy paper which is 350 gsm. First up we'll get some yellow, let's
put it random on the sheet like that. Now we'll get some red
and just spray that randomly on the sheet.
Yes, like that. Let's just bang a bit of yellow on the top of that.
Yes, now we'll get some black on here down the bottom
like that. A bit of white just randomly anywhere like that. We can
go there, anywhere. I'll get some stuff to make some
texture with. I'm going to be using a plastic sheet
but magazine paper or anything like that will work so I'll just crunch it up like
that. Place over wet paint, give it a nice rub
with the fingers like that. Make some lovely texture this
way. Now we'll just peel it off and that
looks awesome. Love it. What I'll do, get some white for the
highlight. Lightly spray it like that.
Now some black for the shadow. I want to keep some of that nice yellowy
at the bottom. I think that'll do there.
Now what we'll do is we'll dry it. So we'll get the heat gun
and we'll dry with the heat gun. What you want to do is you want to move
around the sheet so you don't burn the paint. Now we'll do
a touch test so that's completely dry there and the
black. You want this paint to be completely
dry before placing your lid stencils on especially if it's got weight on it
because if it's wet the lid stencil will stick into the wet paint and then leave
a ring around your planet. So now it's dry we'll place the lid
stencil on. So just remember covering a bit of a black
and a bit of a white. So I'm going to have that there I think.
More over this way this time. So a bit of colour down here for your
signature later. Now we'll get the black and we'll go around
it all and fill it in with black for background.
So around your lid stencil lightly like that. Do it lightly so you don't get
no leaking under your stencil. Now we'll do all the background in black.
Like seen in previous videos it takes a bit longer to do the black
when you're using a skinny cap. The reason for that is
it lets a lot less paint out than if you're using a fatter cap
or a stock cap. I do have a full in-depth tutorial about the
Huster spray paint on my channel so if you want some more information about
that check that out. I also
in that video I use a stock cap on the can so you can see
the difference between using a skinny cap on the stock and the stock cap on
these cans. Well now we've got the background black
I'm going to add a bit of colour to it so I think what I'll do is I'm going to
put a yellow glow I think around this. So I'll get the paint
spray towards the lid stencil you can always
come in from this side and then move over and you can spray it like that so
it gets a glow effect out.
Don't mind if I have splatters everywhere because it can look like
Now we'll get some of a red I think I might spray a bit there
yeah let's put a bit of red there like that red
a bit of red coming in there like that why not
yeah a bit more there nice no a bit of yellow a bit of yellow
there coming in like that and a bit there
keep the red as well like that I do just tidy this up a bit here
around this planet at the back beauty of spray painting is you can
always tidy things up if you made a mistake
or you put too much paint in the background
just go like that with it I'm liking that so we'll move on to the
stars like always a bit of white on your
finger like that flick it away then flick the rest onto
your painting this way flicking it off your finger
gives you more control of where the stars are going
and they're nicer there's not a big clump of them in one place
and also if you want them up the top you can just flick them up the top there
so let's one more flick there oh no why not one more up here
that seemed like that and there like them that's enough stars there so
now we've added the white stars we'll add some bigger colorful stars using
this I call it a star stencil you can find
how to make these in another video on my channel
I'll link that video here in the cards so what we'll do is we'll get some red
first and I think I'll have one I'll have one
there so just spray your fruit there I'll have one here as well why not
yes like that so I'm liking that I might yeah why not let's have a
big yellow one here yeah and I'll do like that now we'll go
yellow paint the yellow in the middle like that
there it's not quite in the middle like but don't matter
just out of there like that I'm gonna leave that one like that I
think I can just put a bit of white in that one
so it doesn't have to be a color it can be just white
probably like that nice big white glowing yellow star
I might put some yeah let's put a bit of a couple of red ones in places
this is another star stencil you can also see on the same video
how I do the paintings with these I'll have a red one there
put a yellow one there and one here I think
right so that's them done we'll add some white dots in the middle of these
colorful stars so with a paint pen or something like that we can just go
in the middle just push them down we'll get some more paint through here
you can always go over them if it doesn't come out
first time one here
one here
try not to touch it yeah painting that'll do like that
so now all the background's done it's time to take the lid stencil off
so like I said just take your time with these
that's a bit stuck on the black might not be enough dry
just take your time it will come off so just push it down there like that
push that back in place oh yeah I really like that planet I love
them colors the red and yellows and it's also mixed to make a bit of an
orange color as well I think it looks awesome really like that
so as you can see the lid did dig into the paint a bit here on the black and
you see there so what you can do for this is you can
get the black and a piece of card and curve it a bit
what you can do is you get your card there
and you can you can just spray it a bit may take a couple of goes on there
so what you're doing is you're kind of using the over spray
to cover the black up and just watch out around it as well
because you can't put it on the background you've got to watch out for
runs as well when you're doing that so you've still got a bit there but I'm
not going to do any more on it I'm just showing you how it can be done so now
we've covered this bit where the paint's pulled up a bit
what I'm going to do is I'm going to try some clear coat on this so I'm going to
be using the Montana clear coat to varnish
this is gloss so I'm using two cans because they're nearly empty
and let's see if it reacts with the paint so give it a nice
glossy finish as well because this is gloss clear coat
so where we're signing it spray a bit more on there
get the pallet knife and we'll sign it here
and the painting's finished so I really like how this one's turned out I love
them colors on I think it looks awesome so the clear coat worked really well on
this didn't react or anything with the paint so
that's a good thing you can also find a more in-depth tutorial about your
spray paint on my channel you can also find lots of beginner step-by-step
tutorials so if you're just starting out spray
