Mr Alpha, THAT ,out of ALL of your creations has to be THE most single statement of non-conformance I have ever seen on a tank :think:
Got to hand it to you mate, award winning 'Dare and E'lan'
I guess you are actually quite lucky to not feel the constraints of historical or any other code compliance eh :thumbup: :thumbup:
And, bloody brilliant airbrush skills to match the flamboyant art design :clap: :clap:

Hi Alpha.
Nice to see you haven’t lost that unique touch.

The Tiger 1 & KT were a frightening sight. But that would have had the fertilizer flowing.
If Heinz Guderian had seen that, not only would he have given the “ticket to the last station” he would have handed the Kommander another large bag of Wacky Backy.

Not sure anyone has any interest... my tools

first something called a flow pencil
Image
Image
it has four different tips...for different size of line or mix of paint
also a pressure cup for the really thick stuff
Image
practice :haha:
Paint was too thick on the blue :D

The three airbrushes I am currently practicing with...all siphon feed internal mix...each has a different tip...dual action
Image
I like the siphon feeds ...even though they require a little more air pressure...mostly because I can use larger receptacles for paint
Image

I have a bunch of the plastic bottles for color...the large glass bottle I use for flushing my guns for color changes :thumbup:

Hey Alpha

I've been looking at the pistol trigger Iwata TRN1, have you got any experience with this type of gun, are they any good....

Jake
Passche made one about a decade ago.... they work ok...they handle like a spray gun...on the Iwata side..I'd say they are overpriced....but it's up to you..the only drawback to the grip was for a lot of people the handle was a little on the thin side...so if your hands are kind of large..it may be uncomfortable...other than that.. they are fine :D

Just curious Jake...would that be your primary gun...it'll be good for overall painting...might be something getting into tight spots ;)

Good Morning,
I'm very interested in the flow pencil and wonder if any airguns out there use that tip that can be switched out with others to have an all-in-one gun?
regards,
Painless
