You should be able to go to that model and figure it out via the connection descriptions.Hitting a little bit of confusion getting my airbrush setup. Husband didn’t realize the stuff he bought didn’t come with a hose. I went out and about and only found one place with one. Naturally, it doesn’t fit, so not sure what all I need to get everything connected.
Compressor is a Timbertech AS-186, brush is a Badger 105 (it seems this at the very least has some proprietary BS that I need an adaptor for), and only hose I could find was an Iwata. The smaller end of the Iwata fits into the compressor, but I’m not sure if that’s the correct end? Do I need another adaptor for hose-compressor in addition to the one for the brush? For some reason, none of this shit seems to have measurements on it.

Couple of adapters later and the airbrush is up and running. Picked up the spray booth that was linked, as well. Started off with a plastic spoon and then tried out a zenithol prime on a mini for my husband. Didn’t turn out awful and the brush wasn’t too bad to use. Did notice if the primer stayed there for even a few seconds, it would start to clog up, but pulling back on the trigger for the bigger spray cleared it out.

Amazon product ASIN B000BRMYTCI used the Badger primer, which I think someone else mentioned gunked their brush as well. Also picked up some thinner and some cleaner fluid. Fiddled around a bit with how many drops primer vs. thinner; I'm sure this takes a while to get the hang of and probably harder since I was using a tiny amount of paint since it's a small mini.
They came with the house! And I've been too lazy to home improve. Will probably get to it eventually. I think just painting the walls some nicer color would be enough.Nice setup, but man, I think you need some new wallpaper.
No, and you don't even really need it to exhaust out the window to stop that. Acrylics will dry before it even gets through the filter. I'm not saying you couldn't do things to make a mess, but for the normal hobby uses with fast drying paints you shouldn't have an issue. I put a poster behind it for about 18 months just to test since I didn't want the wall sprinkled and it was completely clean.assuming you use one of the recommended airbrush booths that exhaust out a window, after time do you end up with any residue on surfaces in the room you are painting in?
Those are great! How did you paint the apothecary? Painting my first models tomorrow and that's kinda the colour I'm going for.Hey all been a while, been super busy with commission work here is some.
