Again proof that it is talent and skill that makes a good artist. How many blame the tools but fall silent when you show what can be done with the basic equipment. Well done as always.

Can I use this with tshirts?

Been saying this for years, I have a friend who can't figure why my $35 airbrush has won more model painting contests than his $300 Harder & Steenbeck. It comes down to skill for sure but also polishing those cheaper needles till they match what you paid for with the more expensive brands. It's literally the only difference, the finish machining done before hand, which you can do yourself for free basically. I have 4 Timbertechs (Fengda) I use for general duty workhorse work and they never fail. Sanding the needles works but also using a metal polishing compound like Flitz really steps them up. Great video!

The $100 H&S model, the Ultra, is their best beginner model.

THANK YOU "!""!!! That is the advice I was looking for when taking up teh hobby of modelpainting 30 years later !

Thank you for sharing so many details and doing such a fair comparison! I really liked how you explained the different parts of the airbrush

Fengda 130 is ❤, with a good needle polishing it can make awesome painting, use it every time, one of my favourite in my Creos, H&S, Iwata collection. Have a good day❤

Brilliant Martin, I am new to airbrushing and recently purchased the Fendga compressor kit complete with the FE 130 airbrush,. many thanks for the tutorial.

Excellent video I’ve got a couple of the Fengda FE-183k airbrush kits and for £25 with 3 cups and 3 needle/nozzle set ups and an airhose included they are fantastic value for money, and they do perform really well

Sanding the needle, I never thought to do, bet this is going to help me .

I began watching you about two years ago, while looking for on how to paint a bicycle. Now Iam on my 4th bike painted. Thanks for the knowlege.

Thx man, you just answered all my questions. The first Fengda I purchased wouldnt turn on but I understand thats rare.

Looks great. We've got plenty of guys claiming to show what a brush can do, by doing dots, lines, and dagger strokes.

Thank you very much!

I bought one and it is fantastic!!

I've used cheap airbrushes to paint model kits for years and basically the only major issue I have is its durability. They're reliable most of the times but with normal use it will probably only last for about 5 years, tops. Sometimes the tip gets broken, sometimes it would start to have air leaks that you have to patch with beeswax, etc.

Mega cooler Typ und tolles Review der Airbrush !! Dankeschön 😍

You have a very nice compressor. For needles i use tracing paper. The best airbrush is nothing without an excellent well-maintained compressor... and a cleaner solution for ultrasonic tank that has a plastic basket. I've had some airbrushes (principally 2 Paasche, 3 Fisher and 2 Iwata) for over 30 years for some and they still perfectly work. For some jobs, the most expensive is not necessarily the best. For a wide gradient, I'm going to use a good old Paasche. For skin texture or hair, a Fischer and his twin Iwata model to accentuate details. For me, the best airbrush is one that looks like my old airbrushes and fits well in my hand. The more expensive sometimes requires more maintenance.

Recently I bought an used airbrush kit, my first, just because the compressor looked good and it had like 40 Createx/Vallejo colours. It came with one of these Fengda which I thought I would have to replace ASAP. But after the first session, I came to the same conclusion as you: I don't need more! especially to just fill stencils. Martin, could you please make a video about airbrush color dilution and different paint types? Thanks for many years of shared knowledge!

I have 15 airbrush triperos ,psi neumáticos and Goni ando there 5 is ata and mastersbrush moré quelite But for me is the same think blast the Needles you working great quality

I own this pistol as part of the Fengdra comperssor kit. The kit as a whole is very nice for a starter, it has a compersor with a tank and water trap, house, the FE-130, some paint and sime cleaning brushes. All that for about 92 poud, 108 euro or 114 dollar. I am not an experienced airbrusher, so not in the position to thouroughly review it in any sensible way. However, regarding the FE130, what I have noticed, is that it's not happy with acrylic paints. A lot of tipdrying and clogging up.

Your compressor looks fantastic! Great job!

omg thank you very much, this is the first time I see this on KZread, no one has explained it in the video so far, and I've been watching it for three days, I'm a beginner and I have no idea what is good, I only know that I need three different colors for one model, now I know what I need for quick airbrush change, and it's also a very good thing for controlling how much the needle comes out and how much paint comes out, because the colors I use are expensive 9eur 60 ml, now I still have to find a compressor, I found a fairly cheap compressor vevor airbrus set $110 does not have an air tank. I can't find this anywhere on KZread, I'd like some help, if that little Vevor compressor doesn't have an air tank and you can use the airbrush all the time without waiting for the compressor to fill up, then what's better about a compressor that has an air tank and you have to wait for it to fill up? that confuses me, do all the videos I've watched so far say buy a compressor with an air tank, it's a bit confusing, I'd like some help, thanks in advance for your answer

So what do i use for the clear coat? An automotive paint gun but smaller?

Good

I go back to basic brushes and do so well before using a airbrush.. .i only use the airbrush only when i need to for huge surfaces...

I dropped my cheapo. It served me well. But after I dropped it the first time I was flustered. Paint everywhere, bent nozzle, needle, tip, dropped it again and broke the needle restriction off the back.....ugh I looked all over today, harbor freight no longer sells anything but a kit of 6 siphon feed guns. Hobby lobby only carrys 60$+ iawata.....(nothing wrong with that, but I'd rather have two cheapies). At least they had my createx 4050. Still need more balancing clear.....I just want to paint up my rc car body.....all I got done was the stinking bumpers. Thank you for the critical, need to know information

Do you ever buff and polish? At all?

I happen to see that cheap one few min ago. It is the same brand. Did the same as the expensive ones

great , I would love to see you clear coat a big surface with an airbrush

I have 6 cheap airbrushes in my drawer this includes Fengda, and my tip to you who buy a cheaper airbrush is do the following. 1. Buy 3 sets of needle nozzles in the size you want they are really cheap so there are no reason not to, just so you have spares and so you can match up the best nozzle needle set for your airbrush. 2. Look into the nozzle cap and make sure your nozzle is centered with as even spacing all around the nozzle as possible when the cap is on, that is also why you buy the 3 set nozzle needle sets so you can match it best possible. 3. Clean the nozzle caps for burs. 4. Polish the needle, I use chrome polish on a power drill CAREFULLY! dragging the needle backwards on the cloth. 5. Also adjust the inner needle nylon seal tightness, you do this by using a flathead on the inside of the brush look at the manual. I've done these 5 steps on all my guns and they all can do really fine hairlines now, you will be amazed on how much a difference these small tricks does to the performance. I just ordered a siphon one today, even though I have plenty I just couldn't help myself. I'm always excited to get a new toy :D

Hello I just got this airbrush. My first ever. Do you have any play in the trigger? Mine is almost like a click and spray for the air. And it goes up/down very much before the air actually starts spraying. Since this is my first maybe I'm just sensitive

So bottom line, if I want to dip my toe into airbrushing by starting with simple model priming, a cheap airbrush is a much better starting point than dropping 200$ on a fancy one. Did I miss anything? Also What am I looking for in a compressor for miniature painting? If my goal is to get me a good compressor and I just have to worry about eventually upgrading the brush, what are the specifications I need to check for? How much does a perfectly fine and durable compressor cost for mini painting? Thank you.

compressor 100 to 150 usd is fine..with the 20 usd airbrush. and LOT of practising....and CLEANING.

If you buy one of these you need to clean the needle/Lube before use. Being still new it needs attention.

I am happy with the cheap airbrush because I am not talented with freehand air brush techniques like you! I use stencils/decals 95% of the time I pull out the airbrush, so no need for ultra high quality products. Unless you buy the Iwata or similar quality, spare parts are hard to find - Maybe it's better to buy 3-4 of the cheap ones and have unlimited "spares"!

They work fine, but not as fine as my EVO 2in1.

Can't deny that cheap airbrush can do 95% of work the expensive one can and will achieve great results however the quality of chinese airbrushes is lottery which for beginners isn't really good idea. It's really hard to learn on if you don't is what you are using is working properly. At least parts are cheap
