Default Ugliest 1/8 ever???

This probably belongs more in the painting and detailing thread but for those of you who like to paint decent bodies here, well, this is the #1 reason not to buy a cheap airbrush. I wasn't looking into detail work a lot, just a cleaner spray than cans can give and no more spending 100 bucks for someone elses work. I dropped 70 bucks on a complete testors DA gun and after 10+ hours of frustration and total lack of spray pattern at all, I went and dropped the cash on a Badger 255-1 Aztech or something like that (need to look again).

This thing sprays so easily and so clear and clean it's going to make the one I do Sat and Sun a snap. The Testors was so thin and then so thick and runny from one second to the next I got MASSIVE blead just doing a simple scheme like Yuchi's from the worlds back in 02. Anyway, here it is in all it's hideous glory lol
