Any quality issues? Hobby Art Gallery is quoted at least 300+ for the airbrush and mini compressor.

Not for mine.. its a full size compressor with tank and auto cutoff.. Ustar CD-602G.. their airbrushes are abit rough but still do the job on gunpla. Dont waste money on thoses portable compressors.. they overheat and sputters

Anyone use the ustar KP-45 airbrush? Slightly cheaper than Sparmax MAX3 in taobao.

 

[tanis7811]

Need to convert the power? usually buy from taobao is different voltage and power connector

 

[tanis7811]

Taobao.. I shipped a double piston compressor for under S$200. Cheap air brush too.. Ustar brand.. look in the enlly store. Taobao is the way to go for hobby supplies. Only complicated stuff is the paints and thinners

Why complications on paint and thinners? Cannot use Mr color paints or tamiya based paints?

No need.. 220-240v friendly.. just the socket is a 2 prong (round pins) plug.. need a simple adapter

I use 4px consolidate shipping. Awhile ago they stopped shipping paints and thinners. Someone here was still able to do it after that but i have not tried since..

Its not because the airbrush or compressor doesn't work with those..

The bundle for iwata HP-CP is about $386 in taobao. Does not have good review for the UStar airbrush.

[zepanda]

Anyone tried buying acrylic paint or spray can from taobao? Currently looking at enlly hobby on taobao now, wondering if can buy using ezbuy..

Sent from somewhere using GAGT

 

[holyark]

I don't think can use ezbuy to buy paints or spray can due to their restriction

 

[gentoro]

Yes can. Only via shipping route, no air freight.
