Harder & Steenbeck Ultra 2024 Airbrush, German-Engineered | Dual Action Painting Set with Gravity-Feed Airbrush with 0.45mm Self-Centering Nozzle, 5ml Paint Cups - 120231

An amazing piece of Hardware! Easy to use right out of the box, plenty of educational material on YouTube by Harder and Steenbeck covering all aspects of this airbrush! Well worth the money and I would recommend it to anyone!!

Beautiful and hi quality love it

My table was a mess of various airbrush components as I used to go through one of those cheaper airbrushes every 2 weeks as they would just keep getting clogged or partially clogged in spite of a very rigid cleaning process. I'd be swapping this part and that part between three cheap airbrushes, hoping I'd get one to work properly. After every color I swash the whole thing under water, wipe the bowl, fill with clean water and blow it all out, then fill with solution and blow it all out, ...every time!The video for this airbrush says "just use the brush for now and when you need to clean it, then come back and watch a video on how to do it". I have been using this thing for over a month now and with just the same routine as before, many different mediums, It STILL works as good as the first day. Quality engineering makes all the difference!

Beats the heck outta the master airbrushes I got in a kit. Got myself a good tank and compressor and I'm having a much better time. Honestly just start with one of these and don't bother with a master kit... I had so many struggles with it and just thought airbrushing sucks for a long time. This thing made me love doing it. Cleanup is so much easier, just everything about the workflow is better.

I've got a sorta decent airbrush collection, and I bought the ULTRA 2024 specifically to teach my son good trigger technique. I really like that it has the mechanism which enforces the proper "Air on, paint on, paint off, air off" sequence. I can see how the ring to do quick settings for priming, etc. can be pretty good for a beginner, especially before you've developed trigger control. That said, I'm well past that phase. While I can absolutely "get" why the ULTRA has the nozzle cap it has - it really can help a beginner avoid needle & nozzle damage - it's a royal pain in the rear for an experience user who is accustomed to using backflow to mix paint in-cup.Speaking of the cup: It's friction fit, and on one hand, I really like using it with the cup removed entirely. Without the cup, the brush holds a few drops of paint, and that's perfect for a lot of more detail-oriented jobs - there are many high-end detail brushes with tiny or no cup for the same reason. And when you need to paint more, it's easy to slide into place. The problem, for me, is that I've had a few spills, primarily when wiping out the cup in the way H&S recommends as the first step in cleaning. The cup 'hooks' in , so when you pull the napkin in the cup outwards, the cup comes with it - there's nothing else to keep it attached. There's still 4-5 mm of 'shaft' at the base of the cup filled with paint, and that is immediately dumped out, so a few drops of paint, cleaner, or both will leak all over. Ugh.Atomization is excellent, control is first-rate. I really like the way it sprays.In my case, I wonder if I've gotten a 'returned' ULTRA - it had a few easy-to-fix issues with parts that were loose or otherwise not adjusted correctly - like a beginner had been fiddling with it, but didn't know how to get it to spray right.Fortunately, I've had the experience to know what to do, and it sprays perfectly now.

I started airbrushing using a TimberTech kit off of Amazon. I loved it. I thought it worked great and was able to paint some cool stuff. I saw the videos talking about the more expensive brushes and thought to myself, "They can't be that much better." WRONG! There is not a subtle difference in the quality of the spray, there is a massive difference. Then you have preset spray patterns so no more guessing where to adjust the needle. If you're on the fence about upgrading the airbrush in your setup and you're looking at this one, I highly recommend it.

Consistent spray patterns , easy to clean , simple to use , remarkable build quality , and honestly ive dropped it on the hardwood a few times and its still working the same as out of the box . Comfy to manipulate the trigger and create versatile patterns

What a beautiful airbrush. I am new to this form of art and I have a heavy hand to be sure. This airbrush has all of the ability of a standard airbrush but with the added benefit of giving a series of settings to help give you a feel for how the airbrush should be positioned to achieve proper base coats, priming, details and more. Absolutely recommend this for beginners and seasoned airbushers alike.

El mejor aerógrafo para principiantes sin lugar a dudas. Cero atascos de pintura, gatillo con límites para no desperdiciar pintura ni cometer errores y, desde luego con la opción de utilizarlo libremente sin ningún límite.

Bon matériels.

Facile à utiliser et à nettoyer, un bon Flow, très précis même avec la monte de 0,45mm pour l'aiguille. Adapté à tous type de travaux de customisation ou peinture de miniatures. Acheté en complément d'un kit compresseur aérographe honnête mais moins qualitatif au niveau de l'aéro, je m'en sert très souvent pour la peinture sur miniatures et le résultat est à la hauteur de mes attentes. Un investissement certes mais assez polyvalent et qualitatif pour se justifier dans le temps et dans la satisfaction.

Pros:• Superior Build Quality: The Ultra boasts a robust construction with a nickel-plated finish, ensuring durability and a professional feel.• Beginner-Friendly Design: Features like the Start Control trigger system prevent common mistakes by ensuring air is activated before paint flow, aiding in developing proper technique.• Versatility: The modular design allows for easy upgrades, including compatibility with parts from higher-end models like the Infinity.• Ease of Maintenance: The self-centering nozzle design facilitates quick disassembly and cleaning, making it user-friendly for beginners.Cons:• Trigger Tension: Some users may find the trigger slightly stiff initially, but it becomes more comfortable with use.• Finish Wear: Over time, the coating inside the paint cup may wear off, though this doesn’t affect performance.Conclusion:The Harder & Steenbeck Ultra airbrush offers exceptional value for both beginners and seasoned modelers. Its combination of quality, ease of use, and upgrade potential makes it a worthwhile investment for anyone serious about airbrushing.
