Metu handheld compressor

Tested this handheld compressor for a few times on the HG and RG kits. Found that the airbrush which come with the kit started having broken o-ring and decided to swap the airbrush. Tried Tamiya 0.2mm and 0.3mm airbrushes which fit on the compressor without adaptor. Settled with Tamiya 74545 0.2mm airbrush as it seems the output of the compressor matches a 0.2mm nozzle perfectly. 

I used this combination to spray base color, clear gloss, shading and flat clear on the RG RX-78-2 feet and waist's yellow parts. Outcome is not bad and it is sure a handy tool for quick painting for small objects in the range of normal size RG/HG parts.


Outcome of the airbrush work.
