I am new to the forums and I am looking forward to knowing the community. I am from Japan and I have yet to get an airbrush, hoping you guys can help me =D
My budjet is 100usd for a compressor, and I think I am getting an Iwata NEO since is at 55usd or so. So if anyone can recommend me a compressor around that price it would be nice.Hello and welcome from the uk. Without knowing your budget, I recommend getting the best you can afford, without going toward the top end - unless money isn't an object. Top end brushes are awesome but parts are expensive to replace and as a beginner you may damage something. The cheap knock offs really are not worth getting, a branded brush even a lower end one, will be infinitely better. The cheap brushes don't work well, if at all, and certainly don't last long. They will make it much harder to learn. Even if you have to wait a few weeks to get a little money together, it is better than buying cheap and then throwing it away as that's just money wasted.
What type of painting are you interested in? This could affect your choice of brush, and whether you want gravity, side or suction feed.
Nope but i had one... for about a week. If that says anything. They actually spray great, it is also a.pita to remove the nozzle.Welcome to the forum,For a compressor will noise be an Issue? If not you can get one at the local Hardware store home Improvement store (not sure what you have in Japan?) I think @Nada uses a Neo If so I'm sure he will help you out
Got a compressor to recommend for a newbie? Something that won't kill my walletOhh and welcome to the forum!
As for my mention of Olympos, they are fantastic airbrushes. Quality second to none. Iwata makes fantastic brushes. I would think being in Japan you could score a deal. I know it is cheaper to order direct from Japan then buy here, many on this forum have done so! And seeing as the Neo is NOT made by Iwata or in Japan..
It is not a bad brush, but it is not the same material standards of their other brushes.
Have fun on your new journey and act like your family around here!
I use plain old noisy ones... if noise is not an issue thats the cheapest option. Whatever you do make sure it has a tank!Got a compressor to recommend for a newbie? Something that won't kill my wallet
