Iwata-Medea High Performance Hi Line CH Dual Action Large Gravity Feed Cup

The sprayer works well. I feel the weight balance is good when I used it.

What do you make when you have 40 years of experience being the industry leader in airbrushing…you make this masterpiece of perfection. I’ll admit when I bought this I was skeptical because of the price tag, but ohhh how I was wrong. This product needs no reviews, there is a reason all the pro’s use it. To put this in perspective, I just used this brush with (7) completely full refills of paint with NO CLOGGING OR CLEANING NECESSARY!…I could’ve kept going but I finished the color, and then when it came time to clean it, it was as if I had barely used it. The action is so smooth it feels as if you were carving butter. The flow of paint is so even and smooth it looks as if it was printed from a machine. I have 8 other airbrushes from various manufacturers, but NONE can even compare to this one.

The first airbrush I ever had was an iwata that I got from my dad, and it was the best airbrush I've used, I've had many many more airbrushed from different brands and models, but for myself the iwata company makes the best and most accurate airbrush on the market. It provides perfect comfort and control that you can get in an airbrush. It is definitely worth the cost and you'll see it in your artwork. I plan on getting other models of iwata airbrushed for the studio. Love it 😊

This is a very solid upgrade on the classic Iwata HP C design. The MAC valve is pretty handy to have on the gun itself, although the external MAC is also a good option. I've found this gun to be smoother than the classic HP-C, with a better designed cup. The action is classic IWATA, the metal is solid and the overall feel is of a professional gun. I've used it with acrylic, ink and even alkyd. As with any airbrush, proper maintenance will make a big difference. If you don't need the MAC valve, Amazon sells the High Performance version of the C for $50 less. There are some subtle differences between the models that the typical user won't notice. For the professional illustrator these differences may make quite a difference. I have half the entire range of Iwata guns (including two custom microns), and I use this brush a lot for sketching and for art. It is not quite as slick as my custom microns, nor my harder and steenbeck infiniti CR Plus, but it is a solid professional tool that is beyond what the average airbrusher needs. Solid value.

I wanted to cried and gave up when I broke couple if nozzle tip for the 2nd time which itself is a very expensive replacement (about $40). I finally learned what I was doing wrong and haven't broke the nozzle ever since. Here is my advice so I hope you wouldn't learn it the hard way. If you've own any airbrush before. You'd know to tighten nozzle and any nearby parts. This Iwata product line is great quality, but the nozzle tip is beyond fragile! Therefore, I'd suggest you use the included tool to VERY GENTLY tighten it. But do not try to completely seal it. Trust me, if there's problem, it is most likely not related to air leak. My second tip is don't always dissemble the nozzle tip when cleaning airbrush. This would work as long as you'd clean it regularly enough. And when you want to take off nozzle tip for cleaning, DO NOT put it back on until parts are completely dry! Once I learned how to clean it, I do love this airbrush but I do have to admit I wouldn't face this problem with Iwata Eclipse... P. S. If you broke the nozzle tip and wonder how you'd get the broken part stuck inside the air brush. Just use the cleaning needle that doesn't have a round end tip. Stick it in and do the unscrew motion. Don't wait to do this step. It is a lot more difficult if there's dry paint. PPS, I order replacement nozzle from Spray Gunner which is kinda expensive but they were the only one selling it and shipping was fast.

I think that I should have never own an Iwata Eclipse HP CS this airbrush cost just a hair more but it is for sure a huge step up. This is a great all around airbrush it has the ability for you to spray almost any type of paint createx spectratex wicked auto air inks. it is also over build and super well made heavy compared to my detail airbrushes like my Badger Sotar 20/20 and Harder & Steenbeck infinity, it has the best finish. The fine line and the detail part is what I love about it. It feels beautiful in the hand but it is no Infinity and no Sotar it is the airbrush that you use for 70% of a paint job with out tip dry and love using it. It make all the big to medium areas of any painting easy I used it a lot and then which to a true detail airbrush like my infinity which is a better airbrush. My only problem are it is heavy like all Iwata airbrushes the paint tip is tiny and hard to clean and hard to screw in and remove with out fear of damaging it by over torque the tiny tip. I love what this airbrush can do and how well it cleans up. The cup does wear a little and losses some chrome over time if you paint a lot but all airbrushes do.The trigger is smooth and easy to control. it is almost weightless to pull back and to push forward. The over all feeling is silky smooth. I am a fan for sure. It is a better value then the stand Eclipse or the Kustom but cost just a little more so why do they make them I have no Idea.

I have been using the Paasche Talon and Vision air brushes for two years now. They were my first two air brushes and I spent the last two years learning air brushing with these brushes. They are OK but now that I have this Iwata HP CH, I can’t believe what an amazing step up it is. The paasche air brushes are so crude in comparison and I had tip dry and clogs constantly. Using the same paint and flow improver mixes, I have not had a single clog with this Iwata brush. In addition, the atomization is so much finer. The Paasche brushes give you very little modulation of air or paint flow. The Iwata is incredibly fluid in the modulation. This leads to incrdibly precise control as compared to the Paasche brushes. I only wish I had spent the money on this brush two years ago.

If you do illustration or paint models or miniatures this is the best all around gun you can buy. It sprays broadly enough to prime and fill larger areas and finely enough for small details. The MAC valve and trigger lock are very useful features. Build quality is peerless. Cleaning is easy. The price at the time of review is fantastic - $239 US. Purchased on Amazon From Hyatt’s All Things Creative. One word of warning and the reason I am giving 4 stars instead of the 5 this gun deserves, is it does not include the clam shell case pictured in the product photos. For the price I think this is fine, but the photos are misleading.

ottimo strumento posseggo altre aeropenne, ma questa è decisamente migliore facile da usare e da pulire, vale il costo.

Lieferung perfekt. Die Iwata ist sehr gut. Sie liegt gut in der Hand Man kann mit ihr super arbeiten und Detailarbeiten sind auch kein Problem. Bin begeistert!

Un excelente aerografo tiene la válvula MAC con el que me ayuda a controlar mejor el flujo de aire con lo que me ayuda a controlar mejor el flujo de pintura, facilitando el pintado

Typical outstanding Iwata quality. The MAC valve works well for easy air adjustments; an all-around do everything workhorse. An excellent purchase.

This product is the best airbrush I have used for fine detail with ease, very nice feel in the hand,I think this will last for years
