It's a Badger 150 knock off, if you ever need parts you are going to be out of luck. If your lucky the Badger parts may fit but probally not. Good luck with it I hope it works okay for you.

It may not be bad for a first airbrush, you'll just have to try it and see. If it works out, that's great, if not, you didn't lose a lot. I'm not familiar with the brand, but I doubt that Badger parts would fit it. I suspect that when you need parts you are going to have to get them from the manufacturer. Don't worry about that until it happens though since that time might be a good while down the road.

It's a Sumake, I know nothing about it.. I was looking through their website though and they have a lot of knock off's of a lot of different things, they have a Silentaire Scorpion 1 Air compressor, knock off also...

actually tho, im thinkin of not getting that one and getting either a badger 150 or 175 cresendo from the states for a little more....
the extra cash wont kill me....and its prob a whole heap better

If ya want a good brush bro look at the Thayor & Chandler Omni 4000G Gravity feed DA brush. Its really really good, affordable and a Badger so parts are easy to come by. It shoots all the line widths you could ever want for modelling, no matter what you model. Easy to clean and tough, take down in 2 minutes, completely.
Thats my suggestion to you.
