Are most people using a separate AB just for detail? I have a .35 and a .50 Eclipse airbrushes...
Guess I'll be training a lot with my .35...I have seen a guy paint 25 skulls on a small coin size circle with a 0.35mm eclipse, I've done an eagle in business card size with the same brush. Depends on skill, ability and size of the thing you are painting. Practice is the key and understanding how your brush and paint work together.
Rick and I were playing around with his H model, and I bet with determination and a lot of practice, someone could do some amazing artwork with that airbrush. I can kinda spin the nozzle as I'm painting, but it is very difficult! I'd love to do a painting someday just to show that it's possible. Plus cleaning is easy!You can do some amazing detail with almost any nozzle size. It is really a matter of mastering the control on that brush. With a .35mm CS you can dial down the pressure and reduce the paint to aid in achieving detail. The issue becomes the responsiveness of the trigger to paint flow. Just the slightest of pull on the trigger will give you paint, so a real delicate touch is key. The fine needle brushes allow you greater control and is more forgiving when pulling back. The hindrance is larger coverage and the need to balance the reduction of paint plus pigment size. Believe me I have seen some amazing art done with a Paasche H external mix airbrush. Practice is the key!
