Has anyone used the Tamiya HG Airbrush item # 74503?
If so can you give me some feed back on it as I am considering purchasing one but due to the price am reluctant without some more knowledge on it.

I have the Hg via VLS and LOVE it. I have heard, but do not know for sure that it is a mid-range Iwata with the Tamiya logo on it.
I upgraded from the Aztec and it makes WORLDS of difference!

Be sure to get the Badger adaptor for the airline at the same time, otherwise you're stuck with a new toy you cannot connect to your compressor!

go for it, it's a great gun!

Hi
I must agree with MLD. I started with a Badger 155 Anthem. And it's O.K., but for fine details the gravity feed Tamiya is the way to go.
Good Luck with your Purchase
