    I have a masters g44. I bought it on ebay with 3 different tip sizes for $75 shipped. I like it so far.

    Iwata Revolution BR is a great brush for around 70 bucks.

    theres 2 ways to acheive small detail. finer needle/nozzle or a stencil. generally, a cheaper airbrush is going to have a needle/nozzle around 0.35mm - 0.5mm.. the finest lines can be made from a 0.18mm - 0.25mm

    i believe you cannot just change the needle/nozzle out of any brush unless it is compatible for that application. I have an Iwata HP-CS and i have 2 at .35mm (for detail/paint) and 2 at .5mm (for Base / clear coats)

    i would love to upgrade to an Iwata Micron series but its a $300+ brush.
