I have just joined the FSM forum, and like so many here, just returned to modelling after an extended hiatus. I have been reading a lot of the posts over the last week or so, and I know this general question has been asked before, but I want to ask it again with a couple of specific points added.
I have never owned an airbrush before, but have decided that the time has finally arrived. While the brand is obviously open for debate (and will be decided in due course - I will keep you updated), I have definitely decided on double-action and internal mix and am now looking for general guidance on whether I should make my first purchase a gravity fed or siphon fed airbrush.
At present, I am building 1/35 military armour and figures. Therefore, painting is generally lots of German Gray with the occassional camoflauge. However, I might expand my repatoie to 1/48 planes in the future.
The second consideration is that I intend to use compressed CO2 as the air source.
Given my usage and air source, is gravity or siphon a better option? Or does it just come down to personal preference?
Thanks in advance.
Anthony.
