Did Badger make any anouncement about the "Patroit" airbrush yet? Is there a 3105 Hybrid in the future? Could not find anything about it at the Badger site and Google only turned up Jon's recent post. Is it still a trade secret?

Is it a prototype or a real product? Anyone knows how Badger will position this airbrush against 100LG, Omni 4000 and Renegade Velocity from the various Badger product lines?

You might find this chart on their website interesting- it classifies where they feel each airbrush falls in terms of which one is recommended for which mediums and area of use. They actually recommend the 155 over the 100 for hobby use! Of course I'm sure they owuld say to each his own, but this is certainly a chart I will refer folks to- I'm sure many would find it helpful! http://www.badgerairbrush.com/Application_Chart.asp

This is the chart that you refer to. Whoever created it is definitely NOT a modeler.

Some of the 100LG or Omni 4000 users on this forum probably will have a heart attach when they see their airbrush were rated the lowest for hobby use. Even so, it is funny to see that the 100LG-medium is rated "best choice" ONLY for "cake decoration".   However, it is obvious that the chart does not rate the quality, just the suitability of applications. It is amazing how they come up with this chart.

Well, I'm not a Badger employee... so don't take this as official word....

On the 3155 question, I honestly don't know. I'll be glad to ask, and pass along what I find out though.

My understanding in regard to where it is relative to the 100LG and Renegade-Velocity is that it is a more affordable gravity-fed option for the hobbyist.

Like I said.... my word certainly ain't official. I'm just a forty-ish, overweight goofball who has a new toy!

Can this be made into a 3105 hybrid using the 3155 needle and nozzle?

How does Badger position this with respect to the 100LG and Renegade-Velocity airbrush?
