Wow... thats a lot of airbrushes! Do you use them all? Nice!
I usually get a healthy tax refund every year, so I don't have a problem paying for them... although I had to grit my teeth a little to click "Place Order" with the Infinity. I've been looking at these Olympos but I don't even know what's what!

I obviously can't use them all at the same time (this is just a small selection
) - what I do is, when I start a project I choose a few that I know will accomplish all that I think I am after, and use those. It varies from project to project. I will not keep an airbrush that will not do what I want it to do, or that I feel like I have to fight with (more than any other) in order to accomplish the task at hand.

I did just purchase a bulk order on them (quick connects, that is). Many of the brushes I have been testing have come with hose barb fittings, which do me no good, so I ordered a good quantity of the QC's with my last Aliexpress order.

I think my favorite thing about art is the relationship between the artist and their tools. I would imagine when you are working on a project, you know just the airbrush to reach for at a given point. You know that brush will do something special, it will make a difference that an outsider would never see or understand.

a lot of people don't 'get' that I have multiple airbrushes...... until I expain that you wouldn't just have one drill bit for your powerdrill, or one baking dish for baking........ then they sort of get it. Right tool for the job.
while I could probably (with a lot of practise) do some pretty fine detail with a .5 needle I know that I couldn't push pearls through a micron, so for now I have multiple brushes

Its just like the toolbox in my truck- I have tools to handle as many fasteners as possible. In some cases, I have different options for one fastener. It all comes down to what's gonna get the job done efficiently. Plus it's inspiring to see all the shiny toys laid out in front of you!
I do believe from a creative standpoint, using a different/new tool from time to time helps stimulate our brains... keeps things from getting stale.

I see paint as the drill bits and the airbrush as the drill. But you have hammer drill for the hard stuff and a regular one for the softer stuff. Yes the hammer can dot the softer stuff but they are normally heavier. And then you can have a bunch of smaller drills so that you don't have to change bits if you need different size holes.

I cn answer that for you , the grex nozzles and needles are way to soft , I used mine for about 3 weeks till it started to act up and the nozzle was worn out in about a month , the grex XN is basicly a copy of the iwata hp B but it cant hold a candle to the iwata and the head is slightly different so an iwata nozzle will not work in the grex
