Badger 155 or 175. Whats the difference and whats better for fine detail

Both of those airbrushes are similar in performance, the main difference being shape and feel. I personally prefer the shape of airbrushes like the 155 Anthem as they feel better to me with their slim profile. The Crescendo along with the Paasche VL have the fatter body design which some people prefer. I started airbrushing with the Paasche VL and liked it until I tried the Vega 2000 with it's slimmer design. I started noticing better control and overall better painting on my part on T-shirts when I started using the Vega 2000 with it's more slim shape.
The choice is a personal one, but this is what I have found.

I hope this helps.

Hi,

Also with the 155 Anthem you only have one needle and tip for all applications, no need to change for broad or fine lines.

That is a nice feature.

That is a nice feature, but you can probably put a 155 needle and tip into the Cescendo and have the same thing. Mike
