  • Decent.
When I first opened the box and held the airbrush it felt a little light and cheap compared to say a very popular Japanese brand that starts with I. So I prepared myself to be disappointed but then I used the krome airbrush and I was shocked how well it worked and felt to use. It's a real joy to airbrush when everything lines up and works the way it's supposed to, it works really well and would definitely buy it again. One thing I modded was to file down the two prongs on the cap so it's just the needle and a little bit of the nozzle sticking out making it very easy to clean and reducing the ability to splatter from buildup of paint. Great airbrush. ... show more

  • Great for detail work
This is my second airbrush and I love it! My first airbrush was an Iwata HP-C, which I've used for about 3 years. The Iwata is great, but I really prefer the trigger feel of this badger over my Iwata. The Iwata has a slightly larger needle, so it gets better/faster coverage on large areas (good for shirts). I'll still use the Iwata, but for detail and control, the Badger is now my go-to. The Badger is well built, very comfortable and comes with a great case and accessories. I also really like the open cap design because I don't have to remove it to clean off any tip dry that may occur when doing detail work. I used to leave the cap off of my Iwata for that reason, but it leaves the needle exposed, and risks damaging it. I don't have to worry about that with the Badger because I can get to the needle tip for cleaning and the prongs prevent me from bumping and damaging the needle. The one drawback of this design is that you can't cover the cap and create the reverse-flow for cleaning, but I still prefer the open tip over the closed style. Also, Badger uses a different thread for the air line than other brands. That means you may have to get a badger air hose or an adapter fitting if you don't already use badger stuff. They can be found on Amazon for under $10, so it's no big deal, just remember to plan ahead before you check out or you'll be staring at your brand new brush for a few days before you can use it (what torture). All in all, it's a wonderful tool and I highly recommend it to people who want to achieve super smooth blends and laser sharp fine lines. ... show more

  • and couldn't be happier. I use an airbrush almost exclusively for 40k
Update 12/10/2017: The airbrush has still been performing like an absolute champ, however the plated finish has begun to come off. I’m not sure why- the brush is stored in its case when not in use. I have attached an image. I’m taking it down to 4 stars as so far this problem has only been cosmetic. I've had this brush now for a month or two, and couldn't be happier. I use an airbrush almost exclusively for 40k, and the Renegade has been an amazing step up.For the past few years, I've been mostly using the Masters G-series, and while they're good, solid workhorses there are little issues that would always crop up. For example, you'd constantly need to clean the needle tube between the pot and the venturi, it had a lip that was notorious for catching paint and eventually building up forming a seal around the needle. They are cheap and disposable, however for the most part are only really good for basing. A while back I had picked up a Patriot 105 and it was horrible- even with a .02 tip and 15psi it was spraying at a crazy rate. Right after it started to bubble around the nozzle and while I could have returned it for another (Badger is well known for its customer service) I just let it go. On to this brush- it's simply amazing. First the case it comes in is very solid, it's good for if I need to take the brush to the FLGS or just want to store it more securely. The brush itself has a grip like the 105 and takes some getting used to, however I tend to use the adapter with a couple fingers while using my middle/thumb to control the angle. Speaking of the adapter, finally Badger started to ship their brushes with it, so no worrying to spend an additional $8 or so. The trigger pull and response is so smooth, you have a steady increase as you pull back- with cheaper brushes I've found that it sorta goes light-light-light-omg heavy instead of a steady increase. Not with this. The trigger top is large and round, I don't find myself constantly adjusting my finger like I did with the Masters brushes. Cleaning is a breeze, the pot has steeper sides than I'm used to, and there's a set round chamber at the bottom. Pulling the needle you're able to get into the entire pot- with the Masters brushes there is a cavity towards the trigger that often is hard to get to. Some notes, not bad but caution: - The new nozzle design has a very small tip and it's easy to lose. Make sure you take the time to change them over a table or even a bowl to prevent them from dropping and disappearing. - There are two tips, one is a fork design that protects the needle. I tend to prefer this one, just due to my habit of putting the brush in a cleaning pot instead of on a rack. Keep an eye on the fork top however, if your paint is somewhat thin it can build on one of the fork tongs and eventually give you some splatter/webbing. You just need to wipe it off every now and then. The second tip isn't really even a tip. It just leaves the needle pretty much open. It is fantastic to handle dry tip, however you need to be stupid careful because it'll be really easy to bend the needle. ... show more

  • You can't go wrong
I don't have a super amount of knowledge with airbrushes. I've owned 3, 2 Testors Azteks and the Badger Krome. The Azteks are great brushes, double action. My first was the clear blue model, the plastic is brittle and doesn't take well to big hands fiddling with removing the side cups. It lasted about 5 model kits. Next I bought the grey resin Aztek, after a few model kits it stopped shooting just air when you push the trigger down, went straight to paint. I had seen a number of reviews on the Krome and it looked great; .2 and .3 somethings nozzles and a needle stop function. So I decided to go for it. I did not go wrong. The trigger is soooo much smoother than the Aztek, the 'just air' ability rocks. Cleaning is a bit more than the Aztek. With several removable color cups, I could switch out colors in half the time than the Krome. And the rear mounted air hose I miss from the Aztek. However, the needle stop function is awesome, no more worrying about pulling the trigger back too far (will come in handy on those mottling camo colored Luftwaffe models). The Trigger 'feels' better to my finger, the tension is there but not overpowering (I can adjust that too with the Krome). I use Lacquer thinner for cleaning the cup, nozzle, and needle, and it comes out beautiful. The .2 nozzle will clog if you don't thin right using acrylics Use the .3, I guess that's what other suggest. I started use lacquer thinner for my acrylics and it works so much better (smelly yes, but BETTER). The .3 nozzle I haven't used yet. The hard case is ok, I use it for holding my extra parts. It's a nice case though. So for about $120 US, I feel you can't go wrong. I would suggest it to anyone looking for an airbrush. Now I just wish I had a better compressor. Cheers! ... show more
