The PAASCHE Raptor- Let's Check it Out!

This video is part of my airbrush buyer's guide/before you buy series, and today we are taking a look at the Paasche raptor. Within this video we are going to be checking out the .25 setup, but this airbrush also comes with a .38 and a .66. Hopefully this is helpful to those of you in interested in the raptor.

Thanks for performing another great airbrush review, you are the maestro of airbrush reviewers.

Thanks, just ordered it. Paasche has always been my favorite airbrush.

I have the Talon which seems to be almost the same airbrush with a larger paint cup. It is really the most finicky airbrush i own. I'm not a pro at airbrushing, but it wasn't a beginner friendly airbrush for sure. I have others that paint better and are far more forgiving.

Hi, I was checking your channel due to your good reviews on airbrush (mostly interested in japanese ones), and even got a gsi 771 after viewing your review.
It is nice when you compare the air speeds and you show the compiled info that you got during your test, that variable is known by artists, but not by general public or model builders. It helped me to improve my model painting. Greetings from Argentina!

As always a very detailed review of the brushes! It would be nice to see tests with an anemometer and a table comparison with other brushes. Thank you.

Another great review. I've not seen these in the UK, as you might remember I run a Paasche H and Millennium from time to time. They're pretty easy to live with, their needles are pretty robust, with that step down design ✌️👍😊 I've noticed that mine had a few nicks and dints Chrome plated over from new, doesn't affect how the work though👍😊

I think they do a 0.25 nozzle/needle set, as you say that would help rein it in a bit🤔🤔

Like I said in my review, It can be a bit unwieldy. It's like a beast that needs to be tamed. But once you get the feel for it, It's a very capable brush. I've come to love mine.

Got a pasche single action shyphon I use for laying down large areas sent to me by dred I think he got a few at a flea market, and sent one onto me, the one that needed the most cleaning I might add 😂😂😂

Hey man, great review as always. I was just thinking it would be cool if you break out the Anemometer for these airbrush reviews again. Would be good to see the air speed of all of these. Its definitely something i like to factor in when looking at a new brush. Cheers

Might want to hold your airbrush vertical so the needle cap falls straight downward... you can ding the tip of your needle if it falls on it.

[LemurKrazee]

It's a good airbrush. Only problem is there are better options.
Feels better with the Vision's trigger.

I like the raptor but ive lost its lid 😆 careful painting only.

Great video again. Do you think this airbrush with the .66 needle is a good option for bigger surfaces like 1/24 an 1/12 scale car bodies? Thanks for all the really informative videos. Based on your top 10 video i bought the h & s ultra 2024, i'm really happy with that one.

Hi I’m having a problem with my airbrush and I’m puzzled my needle is like being scratched up and leaving very small metal shavings in the brush and I just don’t know what to do or what the issue would be (the brush I have is the the iwatta Neo Cn)
