Airbrush

Hobby talk / workshop

Hi , what is your preferred airbrush nozzle size for use on your army. I’m used to 1:35 model building so i’m curious to know .

I use two different airbrushes for everything, I have an Iwata CM CP Micron (.18mm) and an Iwata Eclipse (.35). I have also used Infinity Evolution and an old Badger single action airbrush, both of which I have worn out.

It’s the same paint so the smaller the nozzle the more clogging you will experience so unless you know what you are doing I would recommend the larger nozzle sizes.

Thanks, i now use the NEO for Iwata 0.35 mm for my 1:35 models . Works great for painting tanks and trucks and the like. Kings of War is a lot smaller to work with so i’m looking around what would work on my new army. Again thanks for the help.

Unless you want another airbrush I would just use the one you have.

A good, not to expensive upgrade, would be the Eclipse, it’s the one I would recommend.

You can also get china copies but the quality varies a lot.
