Product Information

Or perhaps I was always just too heavy-handed) with my spray cans. But I have found significantly less detail loss since switching to an Airbrush. The primer is like a thin coat of dust across the model surface. Less than dust even, but that’s probably just because I need to clean my house more. This is my philosophy. Keep your hobby simple when you’re first starting out, and let the other “needs” emerge.

I’ve tried to ignore this in the listings below and based the ranking on the use of the airbrush. it’s functions and usability for miniature and 3D printed models – ignoring price. but in some cases those prices are sheer and need to be weighed in. Can’t find the perfect color? Just mix it — you have so many colors to use as a base that you’ll never be wanting. Although you get fewer color options (and therefore slightly less value) than with Vallejo, it doesn’t really matter. This set is a great starting point for painting any model , and it can also teach how to mix your own colors instead of relying on one brand to supply your options. You need only a small amount of paint to produce vivid, smooth colors, so the bottles last for a long time . The colors work perfectly with every painting technique, from base layering to edge highlighting and drybrushing.Much like the top 10 best brushes, choosing the best airbrush for miniatures is down to personal preference, and the highest quality, the most feature-rich airbrush will not make you an instant master at airbrushing. But unlike selecting brushes, choosing an airbrush is much more down to personal needs and your skill level. Oh, and your budget.

Here’s the first choice. Both pictured without airbrushes but that’s intentional and we’ll get onto that in a mo.

The Iwata Neo is a very popular beginner airbrush, it’s relatively inexpensive but quality-wise. Honestly, it’s comparable to the cheap models I’ve just shown you above. I love Iwata, I really do they make some of the best airbrushes in the world with unrivalled precision and incredible engineering, but the Neo. Well, inexpensive isn’t the correct word. The correct word is “cheap” it’s cheap. Sorry Iwata, but I worry this thing has put more people off airbrushing than turned them on to it. Again, at this stage in your airbrushing career, it matters little. smaller needle/nozzle generally means a finer spray but more prone to clogging. larger is less clogging but it’s harder to spray tiny details. and Vise-versa for the larger nozzles.
