Just in case it's not clear: you can vote on two options, 1-3 and 4-6.

Edit: at least you will be able to once the poll is edited

I have an old Paasche H1 that I bought 30 years ago during my AFV / dio period. With new tips still works a treat. I use is only for ground work now.

I have a badger dual action airbrush and compressor I used when I still did aircraft models. I can't think of a single occassion when I have used it for figures, not even for dull coats. But I know a guy who does amazing figures in 54mm, primarily with an airbrush so anything is possible.

I have an Iwata Eclipse I use it alot especialy on skintones. I have it set up so I can get down to a super fine line. I use it for all scales of figures and busts.

 

[Uruk-Hai]

I use it all the time but on the other hand I do AFV, Aero, Sci-Fi, Autos, ships, you name it.

Cheers

I've had a Paashe airbrush for years (a hangover from my early AFV modelling days) however I haven't used it since switching to figures many, many years ago.

I'm tempted to dust it off now that I'm painting the large scale naked Army figures, but I prefer the effects I can achieve with a brush.

Cheers

Well if the poll could show multiple votes I would have voted for 1 and 6.

I wanted to vote 1 and 6, I own a Devillebis Aerograph 63 that I use for everything from faces to clothing to groundwork, one of the best bits of kit I own.......

I use it for Dull cote mostly on figures and also the base. Sometimes use it to base coat the base.
