Ivan have you tried cleaning the airbrush sounds odd that it is spitting water. I've not come across Akan paints before I presume they are acrylics? do they need to be thinned to spray? and if so is there a specific thinners you should use? Maybe investing in a better airbrush is the way to go check out Johns' shop Iwata have a budget range with the neo CN at only £53 they are a very good quality so don't be fooled by the low price.

Shame about the airbrush Ivan which Iwata eclipse are you going for? Penny if you look closely you will see that the prop is on a rod connected to the crocodile clip below.

I know I come into this thread a bit late, but I have the Profile Publications booklet on tkthis. If you would find it useful I would happily scan a copy for you.

Hello

Sorry but I have no idea what a public publications booklet is. I'm not very experienced

No problems. A while back there was a company that published booklets about aircraft. Im guessing it was one a month, each publication being about a different arcraft. No idea how old they were but they cost 2 shillings :smiling3:

I just happen to have the one for this aircraft.

Thank you very much for your help but I already have a whole book about the corsair so I think it's ok but thanks for you help anyway.

Nice work and the Eclipse CS is a good airbrush. It's probably the one I use most. You won't be disappointed.

Cheers

Steve
