do they move ?

I know theres a very little chance of this question being snwered on such an old video but can you do this if you dont own an airbrush?

I have worked with both the Gaahleri Mobius .2 and .3 as well as with the Harder & Steenbeck Evolution .4 and Infinity .2 airbrushes (not the 2024 models) and the Badger Omni 4000 and 150. First the Mobius, I was able to work with them without issue, the .2 needs very thinned down paint indeed. Personally I prefer the .3 as it is much easier to work with and the MAC valve is not something I ever use so I prefer to not have it in my way. The .2 sprays finer but not even that much. Cleaning is them is OK, my biggest problem with them is the tolerance around the seals. This is not as good as with H&S and Badger. You can easily get paint into the whole brush if your not careful. I have them just a few months so I cant say anything about life expectancy but I think the H&S will outlive them for sure and the Badgers probably too. Second the H&S, both brushes are great, the quality of both is a step above the Gaahleri and the Badgers. The .4 nozzle is great and can spray about as fine as the Mobius .3. The .2 is just as with the Mobius only suitable for very thin paints. The Infinity .2 can spray a little finer than the Mobius .2. The evolution .4 is able to do almost all, from base coating to fine details to Varnish. Third Badger, I like the Omni 4000 much better then the 150. Again its very all round. My biggest problem with both badgers is cleaning them, I don't like it. The Omni 4000 is doable but needs a tool, the 150 is just so bad, I don't use it just so i don't need to clean it. Cleaning is why I got a H&S instead of the Iwata High End line, I don't want to fiddle with a micro nozzle and special tool. (The Eclipse is better it seems but its nozzle looks so much like the Omni I went with H&S) What would I recommend? Get the H&S Evo .4 for almost all your airbrush work. The quality of the brush is insane, cleaning it is so much better then the Omni 4000 the .4 can do almost everything well. Some people don't like the trigger though but that seems to be fixed with the Evo 2024. Yes its more expensive then the Gaahleri offering but as you can use it for 90% of the jobs its gonna be used a lot, and its money well spend. Now for extreme fine details when you have enough airbrush experience you can get the Mobius as a second brush. Its cheap and as you'll need it much less often paying a little less seems fine. If you don't care and want the finest sprays patterns and the best quality, and money is less important get the H&S Infinity .2 or .15 Another great option with great price/performance is GSI Creos / Mr Hobby PS-267/270/274/289. I have never used them so I cannot compare them to the above models but many people who have used them love them.

This is the first painted model face I've ever seen that actually looks like a human, and not some weird looking mask with over exaggerated shadows and highlights. Bravo!

As a Vietnam veteran: you have hit a home run . Details are very revealing and amazingly accurate.

Awesome work

Oh that is terrible

you make it look so easy.... Exellent work !

I know its an old video but I need some help, I painted a model bronze green but paint looks a bit blue, will clear yellow help bring the green back? Thanks in advance

Great video

What is used to create the shiney metalic parts on the wheels?...Really nice touch to see the areas on the wheels that are in contact with the tracks

I love the dragon models but after 1 year the vinyl crap shit wheels just broke... Tip: Buy the Tamiya kit for 5 Euros additionally and just replace the shitty Dragon vinyl wheels with the 70s Tamiya wheels. Just have to cut the pointy wheel catch for the dragon wheels off and just glue the plastic wheels from Tamiya in place. And finito. There you have a pak that will last as long as you live. I hate these cheap ass vinyl wheels :) Grüße

Does the 1/16 Oberschutze come with helmet decals?

Short, concise, and informative.

so I have a quick question, when sealing my applied decals on an airplane, made a rookie mistake of not masking the clear plastic canopy leaving it dull without a glassy effect. I know Tamiya makes both lacquer and acrylic paint. which is best to brush on to revive the canopy. my inclination is to turn to a lacquer due to it applies strong and hard. don't want to damage to plastic or seal created by the glue. any advice you can provide would be greatly appreciated. in advance, thank you for your return reply. regards, brian

Great, another KZfaqr with a “fantastic” review of airbrushes sent to them for free with an attached discount 🙄

THE andrea website is pants, I'll stick with Vallejo

*It's been a while that i want to buy a new airbrush, thanks for your test, now i know which model i'll buy on next months.*

Cool. Looks good for starters or those on a budget. I use Mr Hobby (.2, .3, .5) and Tamiya(.3). Trigger 0.5's are the way to go for primer. (Mr Color and SMS) Mr Hobby .5 trigger comes with the fan cap but the pistol grip is separate item. Tamiya's .3 trigger comes with the pistol grip (and it's the same one as Mr Hobby's). Weird. Thanks for the vids. Followed your work with Lifecolor and got some great results on Italian armour 1/35. Love the Tensacrom. And the Rust sets. More on using Lifecolor products would be great. Doing more non solvent paint as it's just a bit less of a hassle sometimes.(Hot weather and respirator mask in the shed.🥵) Cheers 🦘🦘🦘

Thank you for the nice review!

I was taught - on a large scale model at least - to always use a new tin of paint (but I've not always - been lucky I guess). I have a GHAD39 and it's a good little AB for £35.00 I've a Sparmax GP50 - good trigger AB, nozzle a bit fiddly etc to fit/clean. I've several H&S and they're a joy to live with and use - the new range even more so I imagine. I've a couple of Paasche too, they're fairly robust, cost effective and fairly easy to live with. It'll be interesting to see how long Gaahleri products last - found a few bits of swarf in mine, not a huge issue, it's a back up AB at the end of the day (0.3 & 0.5). It did a nice job for you both though. Shame about the handle damage. Thanks for a great review and the 10% Discount too✌️💜👍😊

Nice review. The products of this brand are interesting, I will look at them if I ever damage one of my Iwata. I have the Neo TRN1, and for primer and big coverage, I will never use again a normal airbrush, so much more confortable. I would like to see the video on the paint removal, as I had several times issues (unfortunately also with varnish).

I have been using the Swallowtail for a couple months now and I really like it. It isn't as high quality as a more premium brand, but that's to be expected for a ~$100 airbrush. The one complaint I have is that the mirror finish is already getting worn through on the smaller paint cup. Paint isn't sticking to it, but it's there.

You'd never buy one there crap and you know it and the only reason your bumping your gums because they've gave you a free one and a script it won't spray properly there's no control at all you getting thick and thin coverage

amazing smoot texutur grait colors. i has beginn since 3 months with model build and AK is afther tamiya a point smother both ar good but AK is not so exspensiv as tamiya :) tats a plus for ak.

Looks amazing! Thank you for sharing your skills. Subscribed

If only using acrylic paints, is the hose needed? I'm thinking that those filters should catch all the paint particles. Am I wrong?

Is Mr. surfacer enamel or acrylic based?

I got one of these at a good price. Sad to see the company close down. Sounds like they retired. Im almost scared to use it as I only have the one roll of trifoil that came with it. Anyone else here have an alternative source for the foil? I might try and experiment with some materials. The tool will last a lifetime but the foil will not

I see this is basically a single action airbrush. I would have liked it better if it functioned like a spray gun. There is no way to blow air with this setup.🙁

It is sad that AK changed this bottle to an uglier type. Can I ask whether you painted with Olive Drab directly without no primer?

Why did they not use Sherman dd in the pacific war

Sean Connery😂

What's the first rule of Model Club? Don't talk about Model Club! You have comprehensively violated this rule!

Posso sapere il prezzo. Grazie

Give the Link to Purchase these Tracks please.

Great review, and have been thinking about getting myself the mobius 2mm. You literally answered my questions on how it handles paint and tweaking the brush for good application.

Salut my friend super car super video subscribe subscribe .

The way this video is made, reminds me of old documentaries i was waching back in the 90s. A young fella learning aboout his hobby, from an old tv and a video cassette player, during a quiet summer afternoon.

Phwoar look at the barrel on that!

Great, terrific demo. Just what I needed.

Great video, and even in my 50s, every day is still a school day💜👍✌️😊

Outstanding episode !!!

Please keep it up and have lots of fun as well. I look forward to seeing what you are up to so please keep it coming. Please take care and have fun.

Not so sure about the narration but you do you. Great model outcome as always thank you

Finally someone pronounces Vallejo correctly!

Thank you for posting this gem! I was a Marine artilleryman on the M198 and M777 and did every job on the guns up to Section Chief and Guns Platoon Sergeant. It's amazing how the fundamentals of artillery have been so constant. The commands and even some of the equipment are virtually unchanged after all these years. It's hard to put into words how much I enjoyed watching this video!

Hi , Excellent film ,may I ask which is the best glue for resin kits please .

Very cool video. First time watching one of your videos. The historical information was great. For somebody like me that is still relatively new to the hobby, the information is great for learning about the details of the tanks. Got a new subscriber.

where did you get your Clear from ?
