StevenGuthmiller Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 Just got the new "trigger" airbrush from Japan today! Can't wait to try it out! Steve
ChrisBcritter Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 Just got this from a seller in Australia: Hoped it would be a good match for the '58 Ford grille mesh. Maybe a hair small but I'll see if it looks better than what I have now - if not, I now have a LOT of custom grilles... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

StevenGuthmiller Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 That looks great. You will love the trigger. Those get good reviews. Enjoy.I'm hoping that it will give me a wider spray pattern & a little bit more paint volume than my current airbrush.I seem to have increasing issues with streaking, especially with metallic paints.

crazyjim Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 Iwata has an optional handle that adds like a pistol grip. VERY comfy to hold.

They mostly sell aircraft, armor and ship kits. If you get on their e-mail list, on weekends they often do discounts on entire product lines like Eduard. (This past weekend was 20% off all Dragon/DML kits.) Prices are already pretty good without any discounts and they ship very quickly.Here's a link to the search results for "Eduard mesh:"https://store.spruebrothers.com/searchresults.asp?Search=eduard+mesh&Submit=
Super28 Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 Trying this revolving storage unit from harbor freight. About $15.00. See how it works out
Ace-Garageguy Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 Just finished a long-term job in the big-car shop, so I treated myself to additional copies of these... ...and a set of these, also in 1/8 scale.

waynehulsey Posted August 11, 2017 Posted August 11, 2017 Yep I bought it for $1.00, I glad I seen it and knew what it was.Is that a AMT 58? The couple of 58 Ford promos I have look sharper then that. But could be because it looks like it was dip painted
disabled modeler Posted August 12, 2017 Posted August 12, 2017 Yep I bought it for $1.00, I glad I seen it and knew what it was.Awesome find and deal Rick..!
vintagedragcrazy Posted August 13, 2017 Posted August 13, 2017 Was at the hobby shop today and picked up a couple kits! And found the second kit in the basement near mint nothing missing only 3 pieces off the trees only thing someone painted a few pieces gold but never took them off the sprues or glued anything I think it was a luck day!
