    MuralsMural painting is typically done with airbrushes that have larger fluid capacities and with spray guns. Designer, mural painter and artist,A.D. Cook prefers the RG-3 and W-100 spray guns, and uses a variety of other airbrushes, including the HP-C Plus and Custom Micron likehe CM-SB. He powers his wares with a Shark compressor.

    Airbrushing WatercolorsWatercolors are one of the most natural mediums for use with an airbrush because its a transparent media and airbrushes apply colors in aransparent fashion. Respected artist, lecturer and avid golfer Kirk Lybecker says, Airbrushes are often used to enhance places where watercore weak like in washes.

    ybecker, who often works with watercolors, prefers the Custom Micron CM-SB and CM-B because of their phenomenal control and powehem with a quiet Shark compressor. Lybecker sometimes uses a CM-C for slightly larger areas and an RG-3 mini spray gun for blockingn larger background areas.

    Casual airbrush users painting with watercolors may prefer the gravity-feed HP-C Plus or HP-B Plus, which allow for spraying at low air pressures maximizecoverage and minimize over-spray. Both of these airbrushes work extremely well with the Smart Jet or Power Jet compressors.

    Which airbrush and compressor are best for meTo answer this question many different factors need to be taken into account. Finding the right airbrush for the right application can helpmake your project turn out perfect.

    Below are some suggestions for airbrushes and compressors for different applications. Product combinations are based on typical techniquesnd basic assumptions are made for type of paints being sprayed and at typical operating air pressures for each application.

    lease note this is just a starting point and may not indicate the personal preference of certain users or professionals in different areas of expert

    Airbrushing Acrylics on CanvasUsing acrylic paints in an airbrush is actually quite common in the arts-and-crafts fields. Noted artist, author and airbrush instructor Robert Pascses the HP-C Plus, coupled with a Power Jet compressor, for creating illusions of shadows, adding highlights and creating special effects.

    ince acrylic paints are heavy-bodied by nature, they need to be thinned a bit before spraying, and typically require an airbrush with larger tip/neeombinations. When working on small areas, the Eclipse gravity-feed (HP-CS, HP-BS) and side-feed (HP-SBS) brushes are great for details, while ottom-feed HP-BC Plus, HP-BE and Eclipse HP-BCS are ideal when doing background work or when larger volumes of paint are required.

    Robert PaschalWhen airbrushing on canvas, art ists acrylic colors are a preferred medium. They can be thinned easily to a sprayab le consistency.

    They dry quickly so you can work fast. They are flexible and have good adhesion. And t hey work well on raw, gessoed or prepared

    canvases. Acrylic colors are wat erproof, permanent and will no t fade. When spraying acrylics for small, detailed areas, I recommend

    the gravit y-feed HP-C Plus. And for sprayin g larger areas, I recommend t he bot tom -feed Eclipse BCS.

    The airbrush is an excel lent too l for cast in g shadow s. It delivers the soft granula r spray required for creating the illusion ofobjects float ing in space. I recommend the gravit y-feed Iwata HP-C Plus to achieve these effects because the softer the spray, the bet

    the illusion. The airbrush is also ideally suit ed for the development of a hard edge when pain ting wit h acrylics simply airbrush alongmasked area to captu re the spray. The tight er the mask is att ached to the work surface, the harder the edge will be. Acrylics can be

    sprayed along stencils and masks without fear of bleeding.

    Kirk LybeckerUsing an airbrush in a w atercolor painting is a natural marriage. Watercolors are thin and flow easily even through the finest of

    airbrushes. If you are tired of drab washes, enhance your washes wit h the use of an airb rush to fort ify the color, such as getting deep

    blues in the sky. You can also accentuat e details like picking out smaller shadows. And, most import ant ly, you can buil d layered color

    so tha t you can get the depth and intensity of an oil painting w ith watercolors.

    I use Iwat a Custom M icron airb rushes because they are a perfect blend of th e capa ci ty to do extremely f ine detai ls and subtblending, and for th eir easy cleaning a nd ma intenance. The low air-pressure use allows me to do a lot of work w ithout havingto use frisket film or similar masking mediums.

    The RG-3 m ini Spray Gun gives me excellent con trol for la rge sprays, allow ing for even, subtle background sprays.

    A.D. CookMy paintings are very time consuming. Iwata airbrushes are rel iable, easy to ma intain and comfortable, ma king them easy tuse for long p er iods of t ime. I have always believed in using t he best equipment for the job at hand. To cover large areas of thesurface wit h precise gradat ion or oth er special effects, the RG-3 or W-100 are indispensable. For detailed work I prefer to use the Iwat

    HP-BC Plus because I can use it w ith t he color cup or a bot tle. Special projects require the use of my Iwat a Custom M icron airb rushe

    Illustrationlustrations are typically commercial and designed for eventual reproduction. These artistic renderings are often done on illustration board,aper or similar substrates, most likely using thin paint, inks or dyes.

    An illustrator like Michael Cacy uses the CM-B or CM-SB for the finest detail work since they perform well at extremely low air pressures.The CM-C, HP-B Plus and HP-SB Plus can be used for detail and general rendering purposes, while the HP-C Plus is good for some detailnd background coverage. These models are all good for working on small- to medium-sized work, which is typical for illustration.

    rofessional illustrators often rely on powerful, yet silent compressors with air-storage tanks for consistent and uninterrupted airflow likehe Power Jet and Shark compressors.

    Automotivendividualism and creative expression turn the vehicles of today, cycle tanks and custom auto painting into works of art. Artist, author and instrucCraig Fraser of Kal Concepts is at the forefront of this creative movement thats rapidly growing in popularity. The Hi-Line HP-CH is the workhoof his studio, while the CM-C Plus allows for the greatest details.

    The side-feed Eclipse HP-SBS (Autographics version) is quickly becoming a mainstay in the field because of its 1 oz. side-mounted cup, whichallows for greater vision of the work since you can see directly over the nozzle. The Power Jet and Shark compressors lend themselves well tocasual workloads.

    watas arsenal of various Spray Guns rounds out the offerings for this type of work. Fraser is also the designer of the haunting Skull Master, SoSkull Master, Curse of Skull Master, Return of Skull Master, Flame-O-Rama, Patriotica and Kustom FX Freehand Airbrush Templates from Artool

    SignsBecause of Julian Mr. J Braet, Bob Bond, Butch Anton, David Shaw and Jay Landsberg, using an airbrush in sign making has become a popool for creative solutions. The Eclipse HP-BCS and the Power Jet compressor are the preferred choice for most sign-making professionals.

    pecial effects on vinyl signs like fades and color blends are easily achieved with an airbrush. Sign makers also like the HP-C Plus and EclipsHP-CS for highlights and quick special effects, and for touching up plotted images.

    Both of these airbrushes run well with the Smart Jet compressor for light applications, but serious power users prefer the Shark compress

    Michael CacyThe Eclipse CS is a dynamit e airbrush for over-paint ing oil-based colors over the top of my illustrat ions. Using a rubout or pi ck-up

    technique with a kneaded eraser lifts up the oils, revealing t he under paint ing. This technique adds anot her dimension t o my work.

    Once airbrushed on, you can control t he drying time, meaning tha t you can start rubbing out an area almost immediately. Also, by

    airbrushing you have more control because you can gauge the value it can be more subtle or pronoun ced th an it would be if it wer

    brushed over.

    I use the Iwata Custom M icron for all crit ical work, such as precise detail. The Iwata HP-C Plus is wit hout a dou bt the bestal l -arou nd i l lustrat or s airbrush ever!

    Craig FraserThough Ive tried many brands of airbrushes in the last 10 years, I can t ruly sayI havent found a brush that can r ival the accuraand durabi l i t y of my Iwat as. Whether Im paint ing wit h aut omot ive urethanes or my wat er-based Com-Art Colors, the Hi-Line HP-

    is the workhorse of my studio. N ot only does it deliver consistent fine lines and details that I demand, it also maint ains that consistenfor many years.

    Ive always been impressed w ith the Custom M icron for the incredible detail work it allows me to do. The Autographics side-feed and

    top-feed models of the Eclipse series allow fo r added versatility and work great wit h solvent-based urethanes and toners.

    At Kal Koncepts/ Air Syndicat e, we have been using the LPH Automotive Spray Guns successfully for the past six years. Iwat a is the ra

    compan y with a complete line of guns and airbrushes where every model is a winner. Wheth er you need razor-sharp detailed illustrat

    or full-tilt custom automotive spraying , Iwata s arsenal has the gun for every job.

    Julian Mr. J BraetThe airbrush is a great tool for adding h ighlight s and dimension to t he lettering on signage, vehicle lettering and vinyl g raphics. Us

    an ai rbrush adds color faster and makes creatin g special effects easier. Light background sprays for panels and add itional special effe

    are easily achieved w ith an airbrush.

    I use the Iwata Eclipse HP-CS because it is the easiest to use and it s th e best al l-arou nd ai rbr ush for sign ma kers of all skil l levI use the Iwata RG-3 for large areas, basecoats and backgrounds, and also for putt ing on topcoat s and clear-coats.

    T-shirtsTextile paints, like Medea Textile colors, that are used for painting T-shirts are made with heavier-bodied pigments similar to acrylics and rearger tip\ needle combinations, as well as powerful air compressors.

    Mark The Shark Rush, textile painting guru and designer of the Great White Shark compressor, prefers his fleet of 15 Iwata Eclipse BCS airbrnd his own Great White Shark compressor. The Eclipse HP-CS proves to be a good choice for spot details and highlights.

    World-renowned artist and instructor Jurek is an avid HP-BC Plus user when painting textiles.

    The compressor recommended for textiles is the Shark compressor. While others may do some light duty such as home T-shirt painting, thurn out if subjected to long hours at higher air pressures.

    RC CarsNovice users and children will be well suited with a single-action Revolution HP-SAR and a Sprint Jet or Smart Jet compressor.

    wata now has two airbrushes made exclusively for the new user and part-time airbrusher the Revolution Series. The Revolution airbrushenclude all of the quality and performance that made Iwata famous and are affordably priced. With the quality, performance and value of bravity- and siphon-feed models, hobby and model builders will appreciate the fantastic finish achieved.

    Beauty ArtThe airbrush has become a significant tool for progressive beauty professionals. It is commonly used in the film industry and is now finding

    home in the modern make-up artists repertoire, creating flawless glamour looks on all skin types, including difficult complexions.

    n contemporary salons and spas, body spraying is in tremendous demand as Airbrush Sunless Tanning replaces harmful UV rayss the bronze of choice for modern, health conscious men and women.

    Airbrush tattoo products by Medea and Artool offer an alternative to the real thing and are fun and easy to apply. Multifaceted artist, authond instructor Pamela Shanteau takes it to a new level with elaborate body art using a combination of airbrushes. Using the Eclipse HP-CS,

    HP-BS and HP-BCS powered by a Power Jet compressor, she rides the cutting edge in her body art designs.

    Benjamin NaemuraI pa int ed my first RC car body w ith a Revolution CR airbrush and a Iwat a Studio Series Smart Jet compressor. Using Hobby M ask

    and Hobby Tape, the results came out great and it was a lot of fun. When I t ake my car t o t he track, everyone askswho p ainted t he body!!

    Mark the Shark RushI ve been airbrushing T-shirts for over 30 years and have seen a great evolution in equipment over the years. When you pain t the volum

    of T-shirts I do, you must use equipment t hat is dialed in for speed as well as reliabilit y.

    I use a fleet of 15 Iwata Eclipse airbrushes and a Great Whit e Shark silent air compressor from Iwata-Medea to meet my commercial airbr

    needs. From f ine lines and dagger strokes to b road mult i-colored backgrounds, the Eclipse BCS does it all. Time is mon ey in my

    business, so I use th e best a irb rush equipment ma de!

    For airbrush tanning , I prefer the high output o f the Eclipse BCS, but the Revolution BCR is also good as it has the finest a tom ization in

    its price range.

    For fingernail ar t, I use several brushes in Iwat as High Performan ce Plus Series because of th eir abilit y to use min ima l air pressure an

    small amount s of paint for small, detailed work. The HP-A Plus is great for fine detail close-up work, the HP-B Plus is a great general

    Model TrainsModel train enthusiasts who want fine detail will often use the CM-B and even the HP-SB Plus powered by the Sprint Jet, Smart Jet or Powet. Master Model Railroad Builder, Greg Konrad uses the single-action Iwata Revolution HP-SAR which is great for general purpose spraying

    OTHER USESEvery day we discover new and unique uses for airbrushes from our customers. Here are a few other suggestions:

    TAXIDERMY AND WOODCARVINGaxidermists use airbrushes for all different types of works from patterns on fish to subtle shading. Typically taxidermists prefer the HP-BCS and the Eclipse Hecause of their versatility. They also use the HP-C Plus and HP-B Plus for subtle details. Users with a preference for single-action select the Revolution SAR.

    ecause of the style of work more control of the air compressor is usually required. The powerful and reliable Power Jet is great for casual taxidermy uses whhe high-powered Shark compressors are popular choices for larger, busy shops.

    rofessional woodcarvers often compete for tremendous cash prizes. They require the ultimate in precision and fine-tuned control. The Custom Micron serieCM-B, CM-SB and CM-C Plus) airbrushes are the best choice for these users. These airbrushes are best powered by the Iwata Studio Series Power Jet comprr with a Shark compressor.

    STENCILING AND DECORATIVE PAINTINGponges used to be the only choice when it came to stenciling, and decorative painters stuck with their bristle brushes. When artist and instructor Sheri Hoegerthe Mad Stencilist) began using an HP-C Plus airbrush and then craft guru Lindy Brown became enthused about her Eclipse HP-BCS and gravity-feedP-BS, the airbrush became an essential tool.

    ndy Brown powers her airbrush with an Iwata Studio Series Smart Jet air compressor. Crafters, stencilers and decorative painters will also appreciate the virtf the Eclipse HP-CS and Revolution SAR for spraying heavier paints and compressors, like the Sprint Jet, that makes airbrushing affordable. Professionals wittudios or shops might prefer a Power Jet or Shark compressors.

    CAKEDECORATING

    ake decorators like Francis Kuyper, the Cake Lady and the founder of the Cake Museum, use the HP-B Plus and HP-C Plus.

    Static Scale ModelsThe resurgence of plastic-model-kit and resin-kit building has created a need for new advances in airbrush technology. No more slapping oaint with a brush realism is the goal and an airbrushed finish is the answer.

    An avid resin-kit builder and a contributing writer to many hobby magazines, Tom Grossman frequently uses the Revolution CR, poweredy a Smart Jet compressor. The gravity-feed Eclipse CS allows for excellent detail with modestly heavy pigments, yet also allows for largeackground coverage.

    Master model makers find that they prefer the finest details and often use the CM-C and even the HP-SB Plus in their work. Subtle shadingweathering are common uses for these two airbrushes, especially when powered by the Sprint Jet, Smart Jet or Power Jet compressor. Advancsers want the flexibility of a Shark compressor in their studios.

    Tom GrossmanScale models come in polystyrene, resin, vinyl and / or meta l. They also come in all sizes and subjects and each have something to

    offer. The finest finishes are best accomplished with the help of a good, reliable airb rush. The Iwat a l ine has a great a irbrush forevery mo del ing need, ski l l level and b udget .

    Iwata products work well w ith a variety of mediums. I like acrylics for their user and environmentally friendly chemistry. Com-Art

    transparent and opaque paints are great for effects and shading like weathering and flesh t ones. Iwat a airbrushes can deliver the

    same great performan ce wit h enamels and lacquers, too. I like the quick clean-up between colors with gravity-feed designs and

    the small amount of pa int t hat can be used. After all, its not t he paint job, it s the touch up that makes a kit come to life.

    The affordable Revolut ion CR fits th e bill for basecoats, simple schemes and basic stencil work . An Eclipse HP-CS is my choice for mos

    other modeling app lications because of its greater control and versatilit y. When its time for some fine detail, crisper lines wit hout mask

    and work wit h smaller scale subjects, I use an HP-C Plus.

    Greg KonradCompetition M odel Railroading can be an exacting hobb y with a need for flawless accuracy in color and h igh-precision workmanshi

    As an award-w inn ing M aster Model Railroad Builder myself, I need to have confidence in the tools I use when build ing models. For

    painting, Iwat a gives me that confidence.

    The Iwata Revolution SAR (single-action airbrush) allows me precise cont rol over my spray pa tt erns and atom izes pain t so well that m

    the Hi-Line Series doesnt just change air pressure instantly it changes the way you airbrush.

    Designed for artists who need extreme control of detailed spraying, this series uses larger diameter threads on the nozzle

    than the High Performance Series. This makes the nozzle much stronger when tightening it onto the airbrush and

    ensures better centering of the nozzle when it screws onto the airbrush body.
