I'm not sure but I think he would recommend a Badger? He'll be here shortly. Until he gets here you might want to try to look through the pages of Iwata airbrushes. As a start I would look at the HP-CR brochure.

Oh, gotta go...here he comes now.

how much you want to spend, sean?

some good airbrushes:
badger 100
badger 150
badger 155
badger 175
(not the 360, i assume you would use it for your 1/32 phantom, cups too small but you can use jars)

omni 4000

iwata revolution cr
iwata hp-cs
iwata hp-c

peak c5

most are under 100$$$ from either coastairbrush or dixieart or bearair

I'm not Mike, but I am personally completely happy with my Omnis. I've had a 3000 (siphon feed) for a good while and just recently got a 4000 (gravity feed). An Iwata would also be an excellent choice. Based on what I have seen here I would stay away from Azteks though. While a few people have had good results with them, it appears that most don't.

All of them. Laugh [(-D]
That all depends on what you want and how much you want to spend.
I think MusicCity gave some good advice.

Not that I've joined 1337, but don't buy an Aztek.... I've been pretty happy with my Badger 200NH & my next airbrush will most likely be a Badger. Here is a link for some good prices on Badger & Omni/Vegas.

and if you're into Tamiya airbrushes, here's a good site...

Tamiya would be a good choice as well since I understand they are made by Iwata.
