I still don't know how they compare to a Micron and may never but the brushes I have far exceed my current artistic ability.
I would really doubt they compare to a Micron. I have a lot of high end brushes and they all have a hard time sitting side by side with a Micron. All of them work really well, but the Micron is pretty much in a league of its own.
Can I do the same paintings with an H&S Evolution that I can with a Micron? I'd say yes, but the Micron is easier to control, and the atomization at low psi is unmatched.
You wouldn't go out and spend a fortune on Snap-on tools if you wanted to "mess about" with a car engine... However should you enjoy it, you will soon find that the Snap-on tools will make life easier and do a better job... Its ok if your in a good job or just dont need the money... but fot us unemployed guys looking to fill time.. Cheap is sometimes the only way!
I am not telling people to go and buy chinese guns for the hell of it. Its a start! not the best start. but it is a start!

It's kind of a double edged sword. I understand that you don't want to plop down a ton of money on something you may not enjoy or be good at. The problem is though often times people will give up because airbrushing just seems impossible, when the fault lies in the cheap airbrush usually. It's a bit of a shame that you have to go higher quality just to be able to perform. Then the funny part is once you master it, you can modify those cheap ones to work pretty good usually .
JCD said:I read that the VL is a very good brush, I'm going to guess that the problems you had stemmed from the fact that you were unfamiliar with how airbrushes worked and were unable to correct the issues you experienced.
JCD said:My brush had great reviews, I contacted the company and made sure replacement parts were available from them and the manufacturer, while there was no warranty explicitly stated the company stood behind their product...
JCD said:So your saying if YOU damaged the brush you expect the company to fix it instead of accepting responsibility and paying for the damage you caused?
JCD said:The advantages to a cheap airbrush is they do work, it gives you a chance to learn and if it's not for you then you can just give it to a kid to try or even throw it away if it is a headache and would turn someone away from airbrushing.
I'm curious are you going to sell your "problem" VL to someone else just to recoup some money while potentially causing them the same grief you experienced with the brush?
JCD said:I've read posts of folks with Neo's and Anthems having problems as well, none are immune from manufacturing defects, not even the microns, just ask Melbee.
