Reviews

Start airbrushing now with the Neo Series from Iwata. The best airbrush in the market for the first-time user, the Neo is very affordable and reliable — and it's backed by an unprecedented five-year warranty.

These versatile, value-priced airbrushes can be used with a variety of different paints and mediums. Designed to perform well at lower pressures when used with smaller air compressors, they're also easy to use and clean.

Neo BCN, Siphon Feed — This airbrush features a 0.50 mm needle-and-nozzle combination for high-performance, general-purpose, high paint-flow spraying and wider spray patterns. It includes a 1 oz (30 ml) Big Mouth bottle.

Neo CN, Gravity Feed — This airbrush features a 0.35 mm needle-and-nozzle combination for finer detail spraying and medium-size spray patterns. It includes interchangeable large (1/3 oz or 9.9 ml) and medium (1/16 oz or 1.8 ml) cups that are designed with a funnel shape, allowing for easy cleanup and more efficient paint flow. The airbrush holds 1/32 oz (0.9 ml) of paint without a cup attached.

Comments about Iwata Neo Series Airbrushes:

This airbrush was a pleasant surprise for the price. It was easy to use and worked well with my Createx paints. I don't use an airbrush all the time with my work, so the NEO was perfect for my uses.

Comments about Iwata Neo Series Airbrushes:

I am not sure about the bad reviews I read. I own 2 Iwata Eclipse HB brushes, a bottom feed and a gravity feed. 4 badger brushes, 2 series 100 (side feed and bottom feed), and 2 series 200. One bottom feed (old style I bought as my first brush in the late 70's, and a new model gravity feed, with 1/32 cup (just a cut out in the body.

Just to let you know that I have some reference.

I find that I use the gravity feed (I do not own a bottom feed) Neo a lot. I like the 3 cup sizes, and the removable needle cap which the Badgers do not have. I can paint fine lines and big fat ones with no problem. The only thing I don't like are the small nozzles. I much prefer the large self centering ones found in the eclipses.

I think that cognitive dissonance is at work here. If people were told that the brush was $150, I think that the reviews would be glowing. It is a great airbrush for modelers painting camo WWII aircraft or thing like star wars models etc. I am not a freehand painter of images, so I can't comment on it's use for that.

I have yet to see a review that actually lists the brushes shortcomings, just general comments like the earlier review. I would really like to see comparison paintings. Since Dick Blick will refund if you don't like the brush, give it a try.

Comments about Iwata Neo Series Airbrushes:

Couldn't get any useful performance from this airbrush. Expected much more from Iwata - lots of short cuts in the manufacturing quality of this airbrush. It's no better than the numerous other cheapie import airbrushes that are available. I also could not locate an replacement parts or info on them. disappointed in this purchase and product.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend
