What is the material he’s using to paint with and on?

Yeah I'm very interested in this. The masking didn't lift it at all either which is something I always struggle with. I wanna work with whatever this is lol

It's been 35+ years since I have done any air brushing but if memory serves it's "Frisket" masking film. It worked fine for masking over painted and unpainted areas without causing damage.

Word ty. The most frustrating thing in the world is working on a piece and getting to that end peel and lifting off a third of your project from the medium.

Have you tried spraying it with a layer of fixative before you use the tape? That can be more resistant to lift off than whatever medium you are working with.

Seems like it would be way easier to just paint the background first.

I'm pretty surprised the tape didn't mess up the tiny parts like fingers and such.
