    Airbrush guidance for fine details

    Hi guys, I own the Iwata Eclipce HP CS (0.35mm needle) and have had success creating cool blends and stuff.

    Airbrush and Primer guidance needed

    Hi everyone, I have a hobby shop near the office, and they sell these items: Are these any good? I have never done any airbrushing but I'm tempted to try. I paint mostly GW miniatures and have some 40K vehicules coming. Would the end nozzle be too small? Can I interchange it or is this...

    Pinning help needed

    Hi everyone, to help me paint my minis I bought the GW drill and got some paperclips to fix them. My problem is that I can't get the paperclip to support the weight of the figurine, and my superglue doesn't seem to hold the paperclip properly as well. I used the smallest drill size under the...
