I have some of the series 7 a 2, 1 and 0 honestly I find the sable brushes at michaels work just as well at half the price. I have recently bought some brushes from Amazon brand is ATI in 000 they are the best small detail brush I have ever had.jkim wrote:I really need better detail paintbrushes though. Looking at Winsor & Newton Series 7 in Size 1... is that a good start?

Thank you John for an interesting and good resume of your AB's !jkim wrote: Paasche Model H. Bought when I was in high school. Early 80's. Back then, airbrushed art on t-shirts was a thing in Hawaii and I wanted to do that. Single-action, siphon feed... dependable but I start running out of compliments after that. Meant to spray an object one color and does that but lacks finesse/flexibility needed for model building.
Paasche Model V. Transitioned to this one but honestly, I really didn't have the time or inclination to really use it much since I quit modeling soon after to chase girls and go surfing.
Badger SOTAR. Got this one a few years back during one of those annual Badger sales. Seems like a decent brush and I've verified that I can shoot a pretty fine line with it. But my main gun is the one that I use 99% of the time.
And that is the Iwata HP-C Plus. I bought this in 2014 right before I started building models again. I was custom painting fishing lures at the time and was tired of the cup cleaning required of both Paasches and thought a gravity cup was one less headache to deal with. Small gravity cup + double-action seems perfect for building models. I can now shoot in tiny amounts measured by the drop.. very efficient. Built like a tank and shoots like a dream. Really no need for anything else.

Re: Show your guns !
I bought as well my first (and so far only) Badger from the same sale, the Krome.BlackSheep214 wrote:That airbrush sale is where I got my first Badger airbrush. I had debated on the SOTAR airbrush as well but ended up getting the Patriot instead.
And I'm mega-happy I did it, it's my workhorse now
