Ok, yet another question about the Omni vs the rest.
Where I live, it is totally IMPOSSIBLE to actually see let alone touch any airbrushes, the closest HS is around 1800 km's away, 1100+ miles in your lingo, hence this question.
Firstly, I model in quality not quantity, so my airbrush doesn't receive a bucket of use, but it does have it's fair share, currently I use a 470 (yes I saw you cringe), and a compressor with tank and regulator etc.
I use almost exclusively acrylics, sometimes enamels for that really glossy look, Gunze or Tamiya paints, and I plan too use Alclad II alot more.
Mostly I model 1/48 aircraft, and 1/35 armour. But anything will generally do.
I was looking at the 5000, but the colour cup looks a little small.
Will the 5000 completely cover a model, ie base coat, or would the 4000 be more likely?
Can either of the above do decent detail spraying, like camo outlines on 1/35, or German squiggle camo on 1/48 aircraft?
Also, are they LACQUER friendly, or would I have to purchase 1000 'O' rings after every Alclad II use?
The reason I think of the Omni, is I saw it priced for $69.00 US, so around $90.00 Australian, plus shipping.
Hopefully Bearair ships outside US.
Soz for the long post, but this is the place where people know.
Thanks in advance.
One more thing, airhose! Is there a differance between the Aztek fitting and the Omni?
