WickedAirbrush

I am new to RCs and just getting into airbrushing too. I have done a TON of research on airbrushing (by far the best resource I have found is the HauntedMyst article on RC Tech) but wanted to ask if anyone is using this brush? I have found thru searches that a lot of people are using the Paasche VL, but I have heard some very good things about the HP-CS. I plan on spraying mostly Createx or Faskolors (rumor has is that Createx is the identical paint at 30% less).

I purchased a 2 gallon 1.5 HP Craftsman compressor on sale for $88 last week:



...and added a water trap (it already had a regulator).

I have saved up several 2 liter soda bottles to practice on, all I need now is my airbrush and paint!

HelicopterPilot-

I got the water trap/filter from home depot (Husky brand). I think it was about $12. I installed it in-line before the regulator; it seems to work well.

You did the right choice with the Eclipse HP-CS. I've one and i love it. Just a little trick, when you paint, remove the nozzle protector on the end of the airbrush. It's easier to see were tour neddle wil shoot the initial blast of paint.
