How bent is it ? Can you not straighten it out. If it's just the tip is a bit hooked you can do it on a sheet of glass with the end of a scalpel blade, any airbrush book should detail how to do it, there are a lot of vids on you tube showing it but they're not all good and I've not got the time to go through them to find the decent one...
Jon - RCS Bodyprep - does it work with solvent based paint too or is it only for waterbased ? Reason I ask is I was going to be doing some solvent based painting tomorrow and I also noticed Sharkhams has a lot of Pactra in the background. |

It has a nice harsh kink in the end of it rather than a bend will give it a go though. The pactra stuff in the background is pretty much redundant these days not used any for about a year cant be arsed with all the cleaning between colours. I have the full createx range thanks to Jon. Your painting is still awesome Jon my main problem is the brush spitting and not having a smooth paint flow im assuming this is cos the needle is bent ?

Is it because it's collecting in the aircap and spitting out, if you see any of the american painters on TV airbrushing motorbikes and stuff they never have the the last piece of the aircap on, it's dodgey though and very easy to catch the needle and bend it.

Cheers for the advice spraying without the aircap on the brush was much better

Aye, the caps a pain in the hole. I borrowed a mate's eclipse a while ago while I was stuck, she was using a castle type cap, and it was pretty good, without the risk of me mashing the needle!

yeah you're rubbish
I've seen the Xray review shell you did up close and your work is stunning mate. Superclean. |

They are really cool and also allow you to get closer to the job without that spidery effect happening. That said they give a slightly softer line when you're doing fine stuff.
