    When I got my Swallowtail, the 0.7 nozzle blocked the airflow. I emailed their customer service and they replied within 5 minutes. I'm looking forward to getting the replacement so I can try it out...
    Thanks for all the work you do to give us insight into painting, modeling and related tools, Robert!

    Glad to hear your relationship with Gaahleri has been so good! It is a shame to hear that developing chrome paints is prohibitively expensive, but I appreciate the amount of focus you've given to reviewing pretty much every one that is currently on the market.

    Great news about your wife! Faith and confidence is rewarding!
    Some feedback on Gaahlari Swallowtail. After one use and cleaning, I discovered an air leak. Checked all my connections (so I thought) and determined my hose needed to be replaced. It is a few years old and I wanted to get the quick disconnect fitting for another airbrush anyway. Swapped the hose, connected the Swallowtail only to hear air hissing out again. I reached out to Gaahlari via email Friday at 4:30p, not expecting to hear back from them until Tuesday (writing this New Year's Day). To my surprise, there was a reply around 10 minutes with some troubleshooting tips. Zeta (from Gaahlari) asked for a breakdown on the unit with photos so they could review. Upon disassembly, I found the extension fitting in the handle had loosened when I was breaking it down from the first cleaning. I retightened the fitting and solved the problem. BUT, I want to give a shout out to Zeta and Gaahlari for the outstanding customer service! I love the Swallowtail's flexibility and ease of use. @Rex, I think you have a solid collab with them and look forward to upcoming projects with them. All the best for 2024!

    See Gaahleri is sold out of the Swallowtail, but working to deliver a 2nd batch. U can sign up on their website 2 be notified when it’s available. The only thing they didn’t show was the price?

    Your a great teacher Rex. I started airbrushing in april this year, and it was a real struggle. Lots of times i wanted to ditch airbrushing. I found your channel in november and i've learned more about airbrushing, bought a booth, and a new airbrush in that time, and my models have benefited so much because of it. Looking forward to what you will do in 2024

    Rex, sometime ago you pointed out the use of a paint cup mounted on either top left or right side so one could look down the center middle without the obstruction of paint cup tight smack dab of view from backside to front discharge that maybe another point on passing on to new developments of airbrush design, I hope I trigger your memory and your vommrnts about bring in the way. Always enjoy you lessons the best show streaming 🫣🤪

Thanks for all the work, time, effort, and in the end, your own money that you put into this. It is tempting to be "sponsored" but as you say, you lose objective opinion whether you like it or not. Thanks again.

    Man, I bought an airbrush and all like a month ago, your videos have helped me enormously, not only to know what to pick, but also to actually successfully spraying my first kit, I gotta tell you, I'm spraying for first time and the finishes I'm getting are smooth as butter. Really appreciate the work and time you take to reviews products and also how to use them, mix ratios , techniques and such, really good stuff along with the examples and test on the videos, love the way you lay it down for us. Much love to you and your loved ones, keep it up and thank you!!!

    Hello Robert! I want to thank you for all of your hard work with the material you introduced to the modelling community. I think I'm a better modeler because of you. I have a better understanding for airbrushes, spray booths and especially paints. I mentioned that I'm a better modeler because of you, truth be known, I'm a better person because of you. The kindness you show the modelling community is overwhelming, your knowledge when it comes to paint is impressive, and I learned from all of that. May all of your wishes, hopes and dreams come true for you and your wife in 2024. Thank you so much for ALL you do.

    Judy must have a spinal cord stimulator. I had one several years ago (Medtronic) and it worked for a while. It never blocked 100 percent of my pain, but it helped. I just comp[eted the trial for a one that is high frequency (Nervo) and it did not help me at all. I hope Judy gets pain relief from hers. Robert, wish you a wonderful new year. BTW, absolutely loving my Swallowtail. I have 12 airbrushes including some Harder & Steenbecks. The build quality of the Swallowtail is up there with my Steenbecks that cost three times more. I look forward to receive the new .3mm Mobius on Tuesday.

    @ClarenceObert 9 месяцев назад +1

    Thanks for the reviews Robert. I added the air cleaner gun to my cart. I'm not impressed with the Swallowtail Fancap though. The fancap for the PS-290 seems to provide a better coverage (water based acrylics) and less tip dry/clogging. But the .5 and .7 needles on the Swallowtail work very well. Haven't tried the .28 needle yet. IMO, the best product review and item you've shown would have to be the 4e paint shaker. What a time saver. I wish and your family the best and hope the new year brings you prosperity. I'm also happy that your wife is coming along nicely. Take care ... OB

    Mr. BR, glad to hear your wife is recovering.
    Great channel, enjoy you do, i appreciate your honest assessment of products and their price point. Have purchased a number of items you reviewed. I strayed airbrushing almost 20 years ago, with a bader 200 siphon feed, single action and canned air, feel in love with airbrushing instantly. This year i moved up to a double action, even though it was an amazon cheap brush, it worked pretty well. I now have two of the Gaalheria double action, trigger guns, including the BR swallow tail. My airbrushing is now ten times better. My aircraft models, figues, military vehicles look like the real thing. Thanks to man. Can't wait for what you bring ti the channel in 2024. And that 100,000 sub, milestone is just around the corner.

    Happy New Year Robert to you and your wife. Hopefully your wife continues to recover. I got my Gaahleri GHAD-39 in the mail the other week. Today my new RC car showed up. Tomorrow I plan to order the compressor so I can actually paint the new car, and another one I'm in the middle of building. I also picked up one of the other shelving units you had recommended previously( the interlocking wooden one). I also am going to look into the rechargeable air duster. That looks like a great idea. All of this is to say that I think the reason you have good viewers is because you are good to them. If you were sitting at home suggesting we buy crap, none of us would be here. Add in the joy and excitement you bring to the hobby and you have an unbeatable formula. It's like watching a kid on Christmas opening up new and exciting presents every video. Every product is a new step in discovering the world of model painting. Heck, I'm not even a model builder really, or even a an air brush painter yet, and you've already got me to buy about 5-6 different products, probably more. Anywho, keep doing what you are doing and I'll keep watching and maybe eventually I'll get to tell you I painted something. Have a wonderful New Year!

    Hi Robert and Happy New Year from Blighty. I've seen you review a number of spray booths which all appear to have the exhaust fan(s) and filter vertically at the back of the booth. Have you done any reviews on any downdraught spray booths with the exhaust fan(s) and filter under the work surface area? Simair in the UK produce a few but there seem to be very few, if any other brands, even though I have read they may be more effective than the usual design. The Simair Gloo Booth ones appear to be geared towards glue mounting but are also recommended for airbrushing. They appear very expensive but I wondered how a downdraught booth would perform compared to the usual designs normally used. I would be interested in your views.
