Re: Advise for purchasing Tamiya Airbrush

The Tamiya airbrushes are very good and I am sure you can buy with confidence (apparently they are made for Tamiya by Iwata which would explain a lot )

However, I seriously recommend that you give that compressor a miss! I have a Tamiya mini compressor and it's basically ..... sh*t not enough pressure by far!

Go for the Iwata Macio suggests of you can afford it or, even better if space and noise is not an issue, get a regular 24 litre workshop compressor similar to this. Not very practical if you are modeling in your living room but if you have a workshop area then it's a very cool solution.
