Great Video! I am getting back into airbrushing and was looking for needles for my Thayer and Chandler, I discovered ALOT has changed, for one my old brush is no longer made. I am sure it will still work fine but I was drawn to these gravity feed brushes and Badger came up as the new owners of T&C. Anyway after reading some Amazon reviews I was starting to lean toward the Badger 105, Your video help me make the final decision. Great comparisons, I really needed to see what can be done with the airbrush and you demostrated and explained the differences very well. Thanks for doing this video, can't wait to get my Badger 105 tomorrow!
Thanks for this amazing walkthrough. This made me order a Sotar 2020 and a 105 from amazon. Just can't wait till I get them.
Another great brush is the 375 Cresendo. I've had mine for nearly 30 years and it's working as well today as the day I got it! One of it's features is a choice of 3 needle and tip options. I mainly build models and use mostly solvent based paints and the only sign of wear is the plating is starting to chip where the bottle plugs into the body. I'm starting to get into illustration and I think the Krome and Sotar will be my weapons! If there anything like my other badgers, I'll have to will them!
Very cool. I had not actually laid eyes on the 360 until now. Looks pretty handy.
its actually really worth it if you do batch painting the versatility of it is really impressive and it works just like a 105 which is an awesome brush!
That's what I do Hugo. Use the 105 (or the Omni) for heavy batch work and I switch to the Krome or Sotar for detail work. Since you go the Quick Disconnect on all of them (you should) it makes it so easy to do.
Just purchased the Sotar 2020. I got it here in the UK for about £150GBP/ $225USD which is basically my hobby budget for the next 5 months totally blown. Waiting for it to arrive now, can't wait! I'm gonna try out some of the schemes I've seen on your tutorials. Totally excited about it. Thanks for your advice and all!
Interesting. When you're taking apart the first badger, it reminds me of my harder & steenbeck infintiy I picked up a while ago in terms of components. I might have to give badger a go some time in the future.
Pleasure glad the code worked!
On the sotar 20 20 I cant get the front ring off the very front of the unit the spray regulator..wont un-screw
Badgers lifetime warranty is amazing. Had a problem with my krome and Ken fixed the issue instantly. Amazing products and the best customer service. Got a 155 anthem for 40 and I like it better than the eclipse bcs
for a beginner is the patriot the way to go? so you have a video on air compressors?
Based on this review I picked up the Badger Krome and the 105. Thanks because I love them both. Isn't the krome a lot like the soltar?
The Kreme falls between the 105 and the Sotar, taking the best of both. with a set of needles, someone who can only own one will be able to shoot the background, sketch, and detail with the same AB.
Hugo...Thanks for the video review. I was originally going to purchase an IWATA HP-CS but I changed my mind after I watched your video. The 50% off promo was also a great. Thank you for that and if you happen to talk to Ken, let him know that he gained a customer. Keep up the good work man!
This is awesome! Thanks guys! I am just getting into the hobby and would like to get a couple of airbrushes to help with painting.
i use both the 105 and krome both great brushes you wont go wrong thanks for the reveiw i think the next one is the sotar 20/20
Great video, very informative. Good stuff on the assembly /disassembly as well. Do you have any up to date Promo Codes?
pleasure mate
See below post please. I have never airbrushed before and was wondering if I need anything else aside from paint. I plan to prime with Tamiya spray for better adherence and use mostly Vallejo Game and Air paints. Thinner? Cleaner? What else is a must for first timer? Thanks.
A good old badger 200 with fine needles and heads are the best.XF is a bonus.
I don't think that Badger would "out perform" H&S or Iwata for that fact. They are all great airbrushes, but you've used H&S longer then I ever had so you can probably make that assessment. The thing is all the companies out there, like Badger, have products that performs great. It's getting one that performs GREAT for you.
Great video! Is there any new PROMO-CODES to use???!!
Great Review
Hi mate. Thanks forbyour review, it helped me decide which one to choose in this overload of different airbrushes. My question; do they go with GW/Vallejo/Reaper paints very well or do you use special air brush based paints? Happy hollidays!
USA Airbrush Supply. That is the current official website for Badger products.
good vid man! Is the patriot comparable to say the HP line of Iwata?
Hey, just wanted you to know I really appreciate your reviews and painting vids, keep up the great work! I was however curious if you had any experience with IWATA airbrushes and how they stack up with badger and Harder & Steenbeck? Thanks!
Do they ship to the UK? 👍
Can't believe I missed the discount code! I'm desperate for a new airbrush haha!
good review
The Sotar (not Soltar, there is no “L”) can be had for just over $100. (Also, it’s Harder & Steenbeck, not Steinbeck.)
@brandonthatruth I would recommend a regular home compressor like craftsman. At least one with a tank. California air tools have quiet compressors. 1650a model is what I have and use for helmets, PC cases and everything else
check on Amazon.com they were having an insane sale yesterday a Sotar 2020 for 80$ that crazy!!! the Sotar is a 400$ AB
youll like them
Merry Xmas to you too
ichibanpainting the badger dollar is a awesome brush they just come out with the soltar slim I believe that’s what it’s called I have a couple iwatas and a passche and a couple badgers it’s the badger renegade is awesome and ther parts and service is the best of any company I have ever seen they sent me free stuff that I expected to pay for labour is free as long as you have the airbrush they are made in the USA so you can send in your airbrushes and they will fix them and charge you hardly anything unless the brush is wrote off the are the best customer service I have ever seen so you can have your HD to much money as far as I’m concerned so buy American support a family owed bussiness they will work with you if you have ideas great awesome company I will be getting another soon they are awesome like I say
Amazon has the Sotar 20-20 for 72$ right now, Badger Air-Brush Co 105 Patriot Fine Gravity Airbrush is 67.49$ and the krome is 122, great deals guys.
read the discription you have to use the code HOLIDAYPROMO its 50%off instead if 40%
I liked the review, especially the comparisons between the different models. I'm curious though why you call the Sotar model the S-o-l-t-a-r with an L. Anyway, happy NY.
He surly his! more on the way
if i want to buy one of those i choice the badger 105 .
I know that all high end airbrushes are almost all the same and that yes H&S are great brushes but im not fucking around saying that the badgers out perform them. The balance of the weight, the smoothness of the trigger and the atomization of the paint is amazingly superior.
true you can go wrong with them
a onde encontro n0 brasil,nao tem
you know me if its shit i say it if i love it i say it! no bull just straight up honesty!
Think I'm going to go ahead abd order me a Patriot 105 and abandon my AZTEK for a while. Best deal I've found in UK is 102 GBP including 20% sales tax. Krome is 150GBP. Anyone know a better deal? Pointer welcome.
Pleasure bro!
Really easy ive used all the above and there's no problems with these paint although GW is the only one I would say that runs really poorly and badly in an airbrush. But you'll need to thin all those paints down to Airbrush them properly.
For Airbrushing I use mainly the new badger minitaire paint line its airbrush specific just like the Vallejo model air range which is also a good option. Check my channel i have a review of those paint up
thx for watching and asking mate
The best all round airbrush company all badger airbrushes are great they are work horses o highly recommend they back ther product 101 percent they fixed mine and sent it back at no charge show me a company that will do that nowadays none they are the best customer service ever and all of it is made in the good ole USA not japan China they have a new one out its a sotar slim it will do fine detail this one is just out last week and this is the end of September 2018 great awesome company great airbrush great service that’s what counts
My Renegade Velocity was defective on arrival. Badger's warranty doesn't cover shipping either way(they charge $8 for the return trip). The customer service is just plain bad, I've been waiting 12 days for an actual response promised by their form email. I will not buy another one of their products.
Also, an FYI Badger uses different fittings on the airbrushes(although my Renegade came with an adapter).
pun??
Soltar 20/20
😊😊😊😊
Nice video..I like my SOTAR 20/20. It's a "SOTAR" it stands for "State of the Art Results" just sayin'..
🤗😆😇
Haha, ok, I'll go with your word on it since you're coming from using H&S brushes. :)
holidaypromo 50% is no longer valid.... winter2013 is the new code for 25% off.... damn nearly ordered me a krome, will keep searching.
the heads to fat on all of them including the sotar for fine art airbrushing. A cheap iwata revolution has a smaller head....Iwata micron will always be gods airbrush until someone makes a smaller head assembly diameter with needle tip than the micron
dont go to the website hes talking about, its a red flag
I'm sorry, but most Badger brushes are performing less than the H&S Infinity. Especially the 105 does not come close to the H&S Evolution or Infinity and it's roughly the same cost of an Evolution CR plus these days. The SOTAR is also too expensive for the marginal difference to an Evolution (with usually over 100 bucks a difference) and I still think the trigger on the H&S Infinity is superior in design and usage. I'm going to say the SOTAR is actually useless for real fine art detail work. The Infinity with 0.15mm needle is best, even when it requires smart usage of paint to not get clogged. I'd get the Infinity 0.2mm any day of the week over a SOTAR; better deal. The SOTAR also is a b**** to clean too. The tiny nozzle will get lost. Honestly, the H&S Evolution has about the same performance to anyone not interested in really fine linework with an airbrush. For those interested in fine line work, I'd get the 0.15mm Harder & Steenbeck Infinity instead.
Snooty fanboy.
spencer kearney Most probably.
No such thing as best airbrush, you need variety of airbrush for complete work. I am not digging the H&S knob adjust you have to adjust everytime you want to change size. Most guy who own both will more likely to pick the Krome or Sotar over the H&S for their work. Sound like you never own a Sotar or Krome because if you own all of them you wouldn't even see this comment.
=P
People keep complaining about their airbrush then go on CZcams and say their airbrush is better than other people's airbrush. If Leonardo Da Vinci waste that much time complaining about his art brush we wouldn't see any of his artwork today.
You get sponsored by badger airbrushes and now they're the best airbrush you can buy nothing else on the market even comes close to it in your opinion which you know is not true
cheap salesman on CZcams
I'm sorry, but badger does not approach the quality of an Iwata or a Harder, much less to make fine lines
