The pics below show the 'Ultra 2 in 1' kit, key parts of the airbrush and some test spraying results as mentioned above. Overall it’s a robust airbrush with average-quality internal components that you really have to stay on top of to keep clean after every use. The advantage of the Iwata is that most hobbyists use it, and the parts are readily accessible. The cons are that it is not quite as forgiving as some of the airbrushes below, it’s a bit clunkier, and harder to maintain overall for the casual painter. We’ll cover a bunch of compressors and airbrushes that are perfect for Warhammer or any miniatures, so you can get a great hobby set up for less! Best Airbrushes for Miniatures & Wargames Models Like Warhammer
This 0.45mm is the new 0.4mm – all markings stay the same, and everything is compatible with the old 0.4mm! Still with the 50/50 paint ratio, the pressure was reduced slightly, to around 12 psi indicated, and a light coat sprayed overall onto the F-5E model, varying the trigger between 'light' and about half full travel. The paint went on beautifully, with a smooth, even flow, and no struggling or spitting.

The ultimate weapon for your hobby arsenal is here! Monument has partnered with Grex USA to bring you the PRO Air series of airbrushes. The dual action TG is our simple-to-use, pistol grip version that controls both air and paint flow with one easy and comfortable trigger pull. The custom aluminum grip feels great in your hand, and the heavy duty construction guarantees that the PRO Air-TG will stand up to abuse and deliver superior results every time. Made for any level of painter from beginner to pro, It’s never been easier to start airbrushing! Also, I think the second grey, sprayed on the underside of the model, is a tad too dark, so I'll attempt to tone this down, by misting the base colour over the top, which should be a good test of the 'brush. Another option would be to keep my Evolution in the No 1 position and buy H&S's low-cost model "Ultra" to replace the Aztek - again, where are the differences to the Evolution and why is it cheaper? I can see already that the paint cups for instance aren't interchangeable as they are push-in as opposed to screw-in on the Evolution...
Gravity-feed airbrush features a unique 0.35-mm needle and nozzle combination for fine-detail spraying, but with high-paint-flow capacityIt is immediately obvious, by the 'feel', weight and balance, that this is a quality, precision instrument, and closer examination confirms this. The body is smooth, chrome plated and substantial, with the trigger action being positive and very smooth, and using machined parts (many 'brushes use pressed components here). The needle is stainless steel, and the atomising nozzle cap is of the perforated type, which prevents paint build up. This can easily be removed, without tools, along with the nozzle, for deep cleaning or fitting the alternative head / nozzle supplied with the kit. It was soon evident that the paint was slightly over-thinned, although it sprayed without problems, and covered evenly, if somewhat 'wet', compared to the way I prefer it. This IMHO is one of the best airbrushes at this price range on the market today for Warhammer or any miniatures really.
Wondering what airbrush to use to paint your new miniatures or Warhammer army, or do you want a recommendation from another hobbyist on their setup? The chromed paint cups are a 'plug in' type, fitting directly into the opening in the top of the body, allowing unrestricted paint feed, and simple fitting / removal and cleaning. Airbrushes have started catching on for the Warhammer hobby, so here are all our favorites that we recommend to anyone looking to get started using them for painting any miniatures! #5 Iwata HP-CS:Due to the length of this moisture trap (about 3 inches overall), there is some restriction, at times, when trying to get in close at certain angles, but it's a simple job to remove the fitting, connect the 'brush directly to the hose, and rely on the moisture trap fitted to the compressor. Pic 9. Test results, sprayed onto a white, paper envelope, at around 15 psi, with a 50 /50 paint mix ratio, using a medium grey enamel. Wide stripe areas are 10mm wide, sprayed from approximately 1.5 and 2 inches. Narrowest line (extreme bottom right) is 0.5mm, sprayed from approximately 1/4 inch, at an angle of approximately 40 degrees. It even has the same special pipe cleaners that the Colani does above that really give you an edge maintenance-wise when it comes to the H&S family of airbrushes. When you have a full army of Warhammer miniatures to paint or some huge models to work on, using any one of these airbrushes will help.
