Bought 1 about a month ago and have used it on a few projects so far and have to say I absolutely love this brush. I have a Badger Krome, H&S Infinity, & a Badger Sotar and it out preformed them all. Had no idea about this brush until I saw this video so thank you!!!!
Thanks for your comment and glad you found the video helpful, I am looking forward to really putting it through it’s paces over the Christmas break to see how she really performs. 👍🏻😉
@@edwardzx7 I just bought one 10 min ago from Spray Gunner. $225 or $250 with the Dru Blair spring. Spray Gunner said the PS-770 is discontinued, It's now the PS-771 with a chrome finish.
I love my 290 and 267. I've done a good bit of business with Spraygunner. They ship incredibly fast and have excellent customer service. They are now selling the airbrush featured in this video with a Dru Blair "Soft Spring" installed.
Thank you for your message and yes, I did notice that on the website ...the affiliate link in the description comes with a free bottle of createx airbrush Cleaner from spray-gunner which is great 👍🏻
You convinced me, I just bought one from Spray Gunner! Spray Gunner said the PS-770 is diecontinued, It's now the PS-771 with a chrome finish. Thanks man!
I have one, bought it last year. It's impressive piece of equipment! I am scale modeler and it does wonders! It's Iwata Micron class for double price, absolute winner!
I recently obtained a GSI Creos PS-771 (same as the PS-770 except chrome finish) and I think it is the best fine detail airbrush you can get under $250. You don't gain much spending $500 for a Micron (even the parts on the front are interchangeable with the Micron.)
Yes I have to say I also love my 770 & 771 they are such great fine detail brushes, the only micron that I still use regularly is the cm.sb (side feed) now replaced with the micron Takumi 👍🏻
I picked up a 770 last year. At my skill level, in all honesty it out performs me. I find it difficult to get my mix right as the needle is very very fine, but when I do get it right I can do some fairly impressive lines. My other brushes are Iwata, SBS with a .35 needle and an HP-C with a .3 so the difference is significant. I have never tried a Micron so I cant compare it to one. The only issue Ive had is the machining on the inside of the bowl could be more smooth, sometimes I really really really have to clean to get the paint off the sides. Great brush IMO worth the price all day long. Great video, I haven't seen a more thorough breakdown, thank you.
Many thanks for your comment, feedback and kind words on my video. You raise a great point, I waited almost 10years before I purchased a Micron and it was amazing as I could really get the performance out of it, regardless of which brand I always recommend to my students to get an airbrush that they feel is comfortable in their hands and will serve their purpose. From what I can see so far from the Creos is that it’s just another great option for the consumer, I look forward to really putting it to the test and create some art with it....but so far I’m impressed 👍🏻
Just looked at Spray Gunner and it says $225 when converted to Grey Hounds £127 and with a pac valve as well can't fault it, it's not bad for an entry level brush as they seem to of called it a Hobby Model, seems to be a lot better than that for the price I think pal 👍
Got one about 2years ago from Japan also had to pay import duty on it so keep that in mind ,I've had to get replacement parts (needle and nozzle ) so fragile ,cost me quite a lot overall But not bad airbrush👍
Amazing airbrushes. All of the Creos’ r excellent quality and spray great. The Platinum series brushes are just as good as the PS-770 in my opinion. Great review. 👍🏻
Many thanks glad you enjoyed the video , I was very impressed on how it performed straight out of the box...keen to give it a real go and use it for some artwork. 👍🏻
I have used iwata brushes for well over 15years and they have always served me well, that said from my initial spray I am impressed with the Creos, I suppose once I really put it to the test and use it for an extended period creating art I will then know my views for sure 👍🏻
Thanks for your feedback, I have never had any issues you just need to be really careful when re-inserting your needle, a great tool to keep your needle in perfect condition is SharpenAir .
Your videos are all ways so interesting I get the choice of three brands here iwata paasche and badger it's great so view other brands from around the world From Canada good day eh
Thanks Rob glad you enjoyed the video and this video is purely to showcase another brand , you have a great selection there all fantastic airbrushes if you are keen then you can order this one through the amazon affiliate link (this will support our channel) or via spraygunner direct both are listed in the description hope that helps 👍🏻
The holes drilled in the trigger can be utilized by running a string through the hole and attaching it to one of you fingers for an alternate triggering system for the operator.
Hi mate, hope you are okay. Really interesting to see this and particularly the full breakdown and assembly. Having a micron I was interested to find out exactly how this compares. My 0.18 is expensive, particularly replacing parts, needles, etc. Out of interest, would the main front end components of this fit into a micron, are they a lot cheaper to buy? Seems to me that it doesnt really matter what the main bulk of an airbrush is (within reason), its all down to the head components and the quality of engineering they have. Iwata are very expensive I think, when considering the current market place. Its high time there was real competition from products like this review. This is still a fairly large outlay but cheaper than iwata, even when trying to buy one from the UK (we suffer from import customs duties AND VAT). If the needle and complete head assembly would fit into my micron, and there is a supplier to sell the parts, AND the prices for spares was sensible (unlike iwata's) then I would be interested to keep my microns body and fit these Japanese parts. So go on... try and stick the parts from this on your micron! let us know :)
Hi Phil thanks for your message, I haven’t personally tried the parts in my Micron as yet , but I have heard they fit...I will need to try myself and put the airbrush through its paces to be 100% sure. This is the most expensive GSI Creos model there are cheaper versions as well 👍🏻 Hope that helps mate all the best glad you enjoyed the video 😉
As it has been widely documented, these airbrushes are all made in the same factory in Japan working for all the major brands of the country and they share many parts. A bit of research is needed to be sure the right part is compatible with your airbrush. Unfortunately, if you live in Europe, it's easier to find Iwata parts than Mr Hobby ones :/
I dont understand why the cup is so large when the needle is so small. Its really idiotic that you cannot remove the cup. What is the point with a fine detail needle if you cant see what you are painting on youre model kit.
I understand totally, these brushes are also really popular for automotive art where generally you need larger amounts of paint as the detail you are creating is usually over a multitude of murals. That said, I would LOVE for them to bring this out in a side feed as I have my iwata micron side feed however they are SO pricey now 😱
thanks for sharing, any chance on the price? ok mate , time for the review, I give this video a double 10, job well done, keep em coming and thanks from the guy across the pond
So as we talked before I bought an ABEST micro. Still trying to learn it as I have never used one. How much do you have to reduce the paint for optimal flow? Still having a hard time. You stated 70/30 is 80/20 too thin or could I go 90/10? Great video by the way. Might look into getting one of these.
Dennis Scott you have to strain your paint. Remove the impurities that are causing the major clogging problems. My eclipse went from no control to pencil thin lines consistently after I started straining my paint.
Thanks Dennis for your comment and kind words re my video, as Jake mentioned straining your paint will definitely help. If you are just starting out generally I recommend a 1:1 mixing ratio for brands like Trident or Createx, making the paint thinner will also make it harder to control so keep that in mind if you are new to Airbrushing and don’t have the control as yet . Also, try adjusting your psi (increasing it) this can help to allow paint to flow if it’s a little too thick.
I believe I'm going to have to try one of these I have several iwatas I really like the iwatas like I say I'm going to try this airbrush out later on and thank you for helping people understand airbrushing practice practice is the only way to get better and I hope that the Lord Jesus Christ blesses your own endeavor to help people understand how to use this tool thank you for your work
Hey Ryan thanks for your comment and lol, ‘thumbs down’ still counts as ‘activity’ on the video so it still tells RUclips that there is interaction happening and hopefully they will serve it out to more people . Cheers hope all is well with you 👍🏻
Don't like the connected aux lever, my CM-C+ is a V1 converted to a V2, and I prefer the separate aux lever, with the notched guide with the bottom screw, compared to my V2 CM-SB with the connected lever. How's the wall thickness on the nozzle compared to your actual Microns? If the nozzles & head assembly are comparable that would be a huge savings over an iwata "matched" head.
Thanks for your comment and I haven’t compared nozzle thicknesses as yet but I’ll take a look. It’s been an interesting brush to try, I do like the rounded trigger, haven’t been a huge fan of the square V2 triggers but everyone is different. 👍🏻
The link within the description is a ‘affiliate link’ which is still supplied through Spray Gunner but we make a small commission from the sale which helps this channel...this link however will only fulfill US orders so that’s why I included the direct link to spraygunners website spraygunner.com as well in the description as they will ship to Australia , hope that helps 👍🏻
Great airbrush but highly over priced, the lower priced $120 is great and affordable. This puppy runs $320 plus and is not intended for the casual hobby air brusher, of course if you have the money this air brush would be a great addition.
Thanks for your comment , it’s not cheap but this is their high end brush which is competitively priced in comparison to the iwata micron cmc plus . Also take a look at Sparmax I just did a video the Max 3 great priced brush ruclips.net/video/cMYnlwx-E4M/видео.html
NO, not fair enough. Badger makes crap. If you want a quality brush you go Japan or Germany. It all depends on what you end use is. If you're fogging in terrain and background then go for Badger, if you're doing fine art you're really going to want an Iwata or one of these, which is clearly made in the Iwata factory anyway.
WOW !!! I hope that comes with a robot to spray your art work for you. That thing goes for $250 USD. That's a steep price and not for your average airbrush user.
Thanks for your comment, I believe Creos has a range of cheaper options that could serve your purpose, that said the PS.770 is pitching itself at the Micron market and the equivalent Micron is around $700 AUD approx $480-500 USD so I think it’s pretty well priced if you consider that 👍🏻
@@superkillr It depends on what you do. Me, I paint crankbaits. I could use a master airbrush, but I found they don't feel good in my hand for long sets. I chose paasche raptor and talon. I can buy three for less than one. Now if I were doing real fine work and was getting paid well.......
$250 is a steal for this brush. It is obviously made by Iwata to cater to a different market. Go look at a CM-B or CM-C for $450-$550 and you'll appreciate the price for quality you get here.
Not often you see such a detailed strip of a item, shows the Japanese quality.
