Every starting airbrush artist or scale-modeller will get to a point in his life when he has to decide which airbrush to buy. I’ve planed to create this category for a long time but I could never find the right moment to start it off. Here we go! I started it and my first patient is Aztek 7778 airbrush.

I remember I spent big time getting that trigger working but unfortunately in the mean time paint dried out somewhere on the needle. The pressure was so week I could not do anything with the airbrush. I’ve tried to clean it with alcohol however it didn’t help so I used white spirit.
