Description:
|
This multi-purpose, high-paint-flow, high-detail Eclipse Series airbrush covers a wide range of uses. Commonly used to spray premixed or heavier paints, it is well suited for uses demanding precise control of spray when applying moderate-to-large amounts of paint to a variety of surfaces and to various-sized areas. This Eclipse Series brush has established a new benchmark for excellence in an all-purpose airbrush. A unique "Pistol Grip" airbrush, the Eclipse G6 airbrush looks like a miniature spray gun, but sprays and performs like a large airbrush with its 0.6-mm stainless-steel nozzle.
· Equipped with a long tapered needle that ensures a smooth transition between fine-to-wide background spray
· Utilizes a dual-purpose air cap and a fan adjustment valve that lets the airbrush spray a round or oval pattern
· The round pattern is useful for painting graphics, while the oval shape creates a smooth background spray
· Uses a special fitting so airbrush bottles can be used instead of a gravity-feed cup, allowing for multiple color bottles to be interchanged quickly without having to clean a cup thoroughly ? another unique feature for this type of spray unit ? optional gravity-feed cups available
· Works well with the Iwata Studio Series Power Jet and Power Jet Lite Compressors

Pros:
|
good feel, fine lines and high paint output, great for blocking in colour
|
|
Cons:
|
sometimes if I'm painting with one hand, the bottle falls off
|
|
I love this gun, its great for painting 3D objects I can paint from all angles including upside down. The detail is good enough that I can paint almost a full piece before I have to switch to a finer airbrush. It's good for painting righty or lefty. 
I use this gun almost everyday with an eclipse BCS beside it for the detail work.
I have to concentrate sometimes though to avoid overspray. I've had the bottle fall off and splash paint on the piece.
Overall I highly recommend it as basically a big airbrush. Great for murals, production painting, base coating small pieces, and it has nice weight and balance.
