I prefer trigger style brushes to the more traditional top mount trigger assembly, I find them much easier to control overall. I have Grex TG/TS airbrushes in a variety of needle/nozzle sizes I use for wargaming stuff.

[kargandarr]

Master also has a trigger style airbrush for about $70.00 but it comes with three sizes of paint cup as well as two needles, tips and heads. The airbrush also comes with a tanked compressor as a set as well where the compressor is also made by Master.

Almost looks exactly like the masters trigger style airbrush model G79. I have this masters trigger style and the GSI Creos procon boy trigger style as well. Love those 2 airbrushes 👍🏼

Would love to see a comparison video of the gaahleri ghad 68, creos 290, the iwata, sparmax. No videos comparing trigger airbrushes that I know of. Great reviews! Thanks

[russrydberg]

Thanks for the unboxing and demo! I was just looking at trigger airbrushes last week. Perfect timing!

[Coraxery]

I picked up one for $45 on sale to do priming and base coating with the .5 setup, it works great especially for the price

[brianv]

I am really curious how this compares to the Grex. Thanks for the video.

[cobaltbluearts]

Great video, I need to master my Eclipse first but would like one of these in due course.

I'm really trying to find out if a trigger airbrush or a top mount airbrush is better suited for shaky hands. I want to get my fiance a good airbrush for him to paint his 40k army quickly and nicely, but he's got fairly shaky hands. Nothing huge, but it's enough. I feel like the very tiny movements on a top-mounted trigger would play merry hell on his fingers, whereas a trigger can be easier to control with just a light squeeze. And if you want to make sure you don't overdo it, wedge a finger right behind the trigger so you can't pull back too far.

Great video. What’s the smallest needle available to use in this airbrush?

[Aisaaax]

You have mentioned it briefly, but do you feel it would be good for miniature painting? I have a standard dual action but I really hate using it. It feels awkward and I can't control it well (despite having many hours under my belt with it). So I was thinking if I should buy a trigger one.

[moparnut]

Nice I like it at $120 I'm considering adding it to my collection does this maker offer a fan cap version as well? The no threads on the tip is a great feature as you can't accidentally break threads if they are no used😂 great for those with ham hands.

[brianpreston]

I'd like to get one for rc bodies. Where did you get that big bodle of airbrush paint

[Deadmanshandairbrushing]

Another awesome video and believe me or not I seriously was thinking about getting a trigger airbrush for more broad work so again my friend thank you for all your videos and I’m gonna get one asap ! Forever your student

I've always felt that the most overrated aspect about a airbrush is how thin line it makes. This one looks pretty good over all though. Thanks

[lennonjames]

That a cool brush don't know how to use one but I like it.😂👍

[idostuff-nfpc]

I'm a true noob. I have an Iwata HP-C Very old but unused.. I tried it and it was quite difficult for my arthritic hands. Can you outline the differences between this GHAD-68, Iwata NEO and the Swallow Tail? Not sure what the differences are between the G68 and the Swallow Tail either.. Thank you

[DoNE]

Had couple Airbrushes thru the years.
Sold my Harder & Steenbeck Evolution 2in1 with both 0.2/0.4 needle and nozzle. It's a really nice AirBrush.
Tried a couple Airbrushes. But Evolution has being the best of them, regret soo hard selling it.
I still have one Iwata HP-B Airbrush. But i'v lost the tiny like 3mm nozzle and it cost like 70euro.
That Airbrush are only for fine and tiny detail, Not good allround Airbrush.

[Steger]

Can we use oil paint with a airbrush is we dilud it?

[NakeemGrace]

What’s better this trigger brush or iwatas ?
