Olympos didnt get in that list?Man, I haven't updated this thread in a while. To save the internet some hard drive space, I'll just put down the one's I use the most.
Iwata CMC+
Iwata Eclipse SBS
H&S Evolution AL Plus.
Olympos didnt get in that list?
Did you get the b ?The only reason it didn't is because the paint cup is closer to the trigger than I'd like.
I may be selling it here shortly if your still looking.
Remarkably instead of that i bought the bcs for shrts and stuff first... of course i make some money on shirts and looking to do some bigger pieces but i do have a birthday next monthThe only reason it didn't is because the paint cup is closer to the trigger than I'd like.

MP-200CDid you get the b ?
Looks like Iwata is getting a lot of love. I want to get a gravity feed with a pretty small cup, but can't decide between the Micron CM-B, High Performance HP-B+, or Eclipse HP-BS. Other than needle diameters, which can be changed, I don't know what the difference is between those models.
Anyone know what the differences between the micron, eclipse and high performance plus models are?
Absolutely correct! Primarily looking for a gravity fed airbrush for detail work, the ability to drop the air pressure down to like 5-10 psi would be nice, needle diameter is less of a concern as I don't really need to paint ten skulls on an area the size of a dime or anything.Andre said:If you are looking at a small cup it means you will be using it for detail work. Then the HP+ or Micron. If you have the money, then Micron is it.
I wasn't sure if there was something other than just needle size, but that's kind of what I figured. That's a pretty tiny tip, so I would need to run a pretty thin mix to keep it from clogging or drying on the tip, and I'm not sure if I can reduce paint to like 6:1 when doing miniatures and models, as they tend to have lots of cracks and crevices, so the paint might act more like a wash and suck into those areas with capillary action. On a nice flat surface that probably wouldn't be a problem. I imagine balancing viscosity and drying time gets pretty hairy when your needles that small, and I know you can get some surprisingly good detail out of larger needles if you reduce well, drop the pressure and get the needle tip close enough to the work.Andre said:Micron = 0.18 = $$$$$
HP+ = 0.2 = $$$
Eclipse = 0.35 = $$
What I use and and what I have are two different things.
I use my Iwata HP-CS most.
I have locked in storage
1x Badger 105 Patriot
2x Badger 150 (looks like 150s. does not have markings on)
