Pros: Interchangeable Siphon-Feed Bottles, Adjustability, & Iwata Precision build quality
Cons: N/A

\"A high-detail, high-precision, bottom-feed airbrush for artists who need quick color changes with a certain set of colors\"~ iwata/medea

They weren\'t kidding! I purchased the HP-BC along with my HP-SB. This is a great tool for those large scale work. I changed the nozzle to the optional .4mm version, that way I could cover larger areas in a few strokes. Unlike the HP-C, you could interchange the colors instantly. Just have one of the siphon-feed bottles filled with your favorite airbrush cleaner~ for a quick clean-up between a colorchange. The pre set handle is useful for acurately setting right amount of paint atomization; that way it won\'t accidently release too much paint.

If you\'re looking for quick color switching, broader area coverage, and precision adjustments~ HP-BC would be it!

Pros: I love the way tjis airbrush feels in my hand well balanced and able to provide fine detail as well as a broader detail, nice brush for a beginer or advanced artist.
Cons: Must be extra careful when cleaning a/b, verry delicate needle, just take extra care as you should anyway.

Pros: Like the HP-C but you can use quick change bottles
Cons: price

I use Auto Air so this is an ideal airbrush for the detail work because I can screw the Createx adapter right into the 4oz. bottles of AA and it speeds up the painting process significantley. I can still get the detail and versatility of my HP-C without having to continually clean out the cup.

Pros: easy to clean,very dependable
Cons: don't have enough of them

I work in the automotive field which means solvent based paint for me. I call it my hot rod and they have never let me down. I bought my first one in 1997 and I still use it to this day. Parts are expensive but you learn real quick how to care of them.

Pros:
Cons:

This is a great AB... I love using this one for some fades and larger detail work.. Even adding a small stripe or blowing in some pearl for high lights.... I have had one for as long as I can remember... Solid solid AB... One for the collection... No doubt..
