Airbrushes in the UK

Hi guys, great forum you've got going here with loads of great information for a beginner like me.

I'm wanting to move on from spraycans and brush painting and purchase an airbrush but im struggling to find anywhere in the UK that sells them at anywhere near a reasonable price.

The prices are 3-4 times the US RRP! So do any of the british members know where i can go for a good value airbrush?


Cheers
Ben

Unhappy Re: Airbrushes in the UK

Thats still a little expensive for the Iwata brush, and i have never even heard of the u star or yehong. What is your opinion of them??


It looks like i may have to import from the states even though i would prefer to support british business.

Re: Airbrushes in the UK

ebay purchases would probably be your cheapest bet although I'm pretty sure you can trust hiroboy's opinion.

You don't want to know how much I paid for my Iwata here in Poland

Maybe you should change your name to Bulldog Ben then?

Re: Airbrushes in the UK

well parents are both polish and ive got a pretty polish sounding surname hence Polski Ben.

Anyway it seems that all brushes in the uk are pretty much the same retail price. Might just have to bite the bullet and go for it, afterall its gotta be cheaper than £4 a can of spraypaint in the long run.
