Well I am not skimping out on the airbrush, it's the best one there.... The Iwata's are one of the best I hear, that VL is a bit cheap I hear but is good for helmets. I am going with the Iwata Eclipes I think which is more of an upgrade to the VL. I just want to wait and get more idea's and help from people before I just jump right into getting something so I know I won't have to end up spending more later because I messed up and bought the wrong brush or paint's or something of that sort.
