Hello everyone

Does anyone here have any experience of airbrushing ?

The thing is that i have for some time now been thinking of bying a good airbrush setup mainly for painting larger models Forgeworld stuff and so on.

As i dont have any experience on the subjekt i need some good advice.
Is it a helpful tool when painting minis / and is it possible to acchive some nice results other than basecoating ?

As soon as i have finnished Forgeworlds Abaddon im going to start painting their Chaos dragon and maby when i can afford one a reaver also.

im sorry if i ramble of here but i cant seem to make up my mind if i really need one or if its totally unnessesery hehehe

Best regards Jimmy

Ana usually uses airbrush to prime/basecoat her models. This is not much use for any detailed painting, but for basecoating it's pretty useful and can speed up painting especially if you have sevral models to be painted in the same color scheme.

For armies it can definately speed up the process but for fine detail I find the brush works better. Just my 2 bits.

They do make for decent blends over large areas though.

I have such device - I hoped to use it more ofter but as mahon said it's used mostly for "base" paintjob

thx a mill guys for the input.

I orderd a Iwata setup today and hopefully ill end up using it also
As i mainly paint Big Forgeworld modells and in the future maby some nice pegasomodells also i might get more out of it than mearly bascoating:9

Ivata = good investment;
I know painting terminator armour is possible using airbrush so You shouldn't have any problems with FW stuff
