I was planning to paint my mask. However -_-... I just want to jump out of a window... at how annoying these cheap air brushes are. I disassembled it and after hours of trying to fit the nozzle back in it just doesn't fit!!
I need an Air brush which is less of a hassle an air brush which has clear pieces with a long enough hoze so i can easily fit it back together..
Any recommendations I'm sick and tired of not being able to paint using an air brush. I need a list of what to buy I have the compressor but the air brush -.-
I have no words to say....
Help.
 
;-; not available in my country.
This is so awkward the ones I ordered are truly a nightmare to deal with. I was told they were cheap as they came in a set but I never realised that after my first use it would do this to me while I was cleaning it. I was messaging NeoKazama when I was dismantling it and to my shock it couldn't stick back on -_-.
 
I couldn't paint my original suit to my liking. However, I had to do what I could to go to the expo. I have a med Kit and mask to paint ahh :/ sometimes things are extremely complicated.
Anyone else know any good air brushes :/
 
I have a Paasche Talon, a middle of the road AB not too cheap and not too astronomical. There's also the Neo range made by Iwata (note they are not Iwata it's just a brand made by them).

Airbrushes are all pretty much built the same though they're all made from tiny parts. If your looking for an AB that is user friendly from a service point of view your gonna be dissapointed. Are you sure your using it correctly? I have cheap chinese ones whilst they're nasty they do work.

I have every part in order the nozzle doesn't fit anymore. I don't know why. Even the instructions are so bad it's one page with just the components and not how to fit them in I understood the concept of it but I watch videos of people putting on the nozzle like a piece of cake and when i try it keeps falling off :/ Could i have a link to that please. I would appreciate it.
 
Just thought id mention that some of the cheep compressors that come as a pakage with air brushes wont always fit a different air brush without an adapter and some there is no adapter for. This was something I was reading about on an air brush web site a few months ago. I cant Remeber any details only that it mentioned cheep stuff from ebay
 
In me experience airbrushes are NOT all created equal!

Ive been airbrushing for about 10 years i use Iwata airbrushes

Cheaper airbrushes can get warped, strip, tips can split easily at the ends causing it to spit. And not deliver a steady flow etc.

Im not saying that the cheaper ones wont get the job done but they take a lot more care to keep them working properly need to keep them clean and oiled all the time.

Can u post a picture of the airbrush maybe we can talk you through the issue?
 
I never said there weren't differences in quality, otherwise I wouldn't have blown £150 on one. I said theyre all made of multiple small pieces. He's looking for an idiot proof airbrush, he's taken it apart and now can't get it back together.
 
The tip just no longer fits and i don't know the reason! I have tried to put it back on. Failing every time

Predatoj is right there is no idiot proof airbrush and there all made up of tiny parts ...
From the picture i see 2 different style guns make shure your not mixing up the parts for starters and usualy the order is airbrush, nozel then nozel cup. The nozel cup normally holds the nozel snug in place

now i have however seen screw on nozels and if this is the case then you may have stripped the threads and that may be your issue otherwise i have this diagram hope it helps let us know

The piece in this picture is a needle cap. The sole purpose of it is to protect the needle from getting hit or damaged. The airbrush should work fine with or without this part i purposely take that piece off my airbrush before use. I feel like you can get closer and better detail with out it...

My opinion...
 
Thats right it doesn't stop the brush from spraying at all but probably best to keep it on when not in use so you dont damage the needle
