Members HollerBornCustoms Posted August 23, 2008 Members Report Posted August 23, 2008 I have an Airbrush City GD100 and an Iwata Eclipse. The GD100 was around $50 when I got it a few years ago. got the Eclipse a few months ago. Both are very good airbrushes. I tend to stick with the gd100 more than the iwata....cheaper brush, but I find I have better control with it. I think maybe changing the trigger button on the iwata may help some. haven't tried airbrushing leather yet, tho I intend to. I also have two older Paasche VL airbrushes, one I use just for when I need to through down a good solid basecoat of black and the other for my candy coats. I don't think you could go wrong with any of those. :soapbox: Quote
ArtS Posted August 24, 2008 Report Posted August 24, 2008 (edited) They have a better model on sale now for $14.99. Item # 95810-3HYH The kit you listed would probably be ok for basic stuff. I use a good one that I bought years ago when I was in art school but I started out with a basic one before I bought that. A Farrari is nice, but if a good 'ol Ford is all you need then get the Ford.

Members Sawyer Posted August 25, 2008 Members Report Posted August 25, 2008 i have both models from HF and they do a good job. I use the cheaper one for large areas and the better one for more detail. i only use them for dyeing, if i could do air brush art , i would buy a much better one for that job Quote
