Basscat Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 Want to purchase a decent airbrush and compressor in the $ 250.00 range.... Looking for input from experienced airbrush users on what brand Pasche/Badger and type....single/double action, etc...... Don't know anything about them yet. Any sites that have decent pricing and service too. Thanks for your input.
Guest Gramps-xrds Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 LOL. If you scroll down on this page or go to tips & tricks you'll find all kinds of info on airbrushes. As for the best prices, this place has just about the best prices I've found so far. http://www.dickblick.com/categories/airbrush/
Seattle Mike Posted March 30, 2008 Posted March 30, 2008 You should try to go to shops that have them (hobby, art supply, craft, etc.) and at least get a feel for each brand you're looking at. I use Badger 155's because I found that I like the balance and the way it feels in my hand. Other builders swear by Paasche, and others Iwata. All of them work pretty well, and will give excellent results with a fair amount of practice, so concentrate on how comfortable the brush is in your hand before you decide on which to buy.
tabsscale1 Posted March 31, 2008 Posted March 31, 2008 I have a badger 200 single action 3 pasche VL and 2 Paasche V and an Iwata eclipse love them all. I prefer the pasche VL and the Iwata I just bought and haven't used much. The best place for buying and getting parts is been here http://www.dixieart.com/ and aslong as you spend $50 shipping is free
