hello all, I had the chance to pick up a badger 350 a/b tonight and went for it.As I am a newbie I was wondering if this was worth the price(40$canadian) I am getting back into the modeling and am doing 1/35 wwII armour.Will this do the trick for a newbie? thanks in advance p.s This is also my first airbrush.

hi carleton,
first of all ,welcome to Armorama.i am so glad you joined our family. to answer your question this link tells Badger 350 price is 44.99 US dollars so i think your price is good. I think you can have satisfying results with it when painting ww2 armor but may need extra attention and some more experience for camouflage paints.
bestest regards

just a bit of advice airbrushing requires practice.. practice at mixining and thinning your paint and practice using it.... paint should be about the consistiscy as milk...
I learned using thin white cardboard as practice peices and used up a lot of paint... but dont' get discouraged.. the results are well worth the practice...
