Who said they hate Iwata?
Slam Iwata? Who does that? I have never read any thread that said that Iwata was junk, have you?
I agree.
Once again I ask, who has done that?
Have you ever considered that fact that most of those type posts are just good natured ribbing?
I agree, but we all enjoy a little fun don’t we?
I agree
Mike
BADGER!! ok I got it outta my system. Hats off to ya Rooster for standing your ground and giving your feeling…I dont agree with ya but gotta respect it.
Now to BADGER ya, you see I used an iwata years ago, what I used to model with back then, but they werent that good. I then bought a badger 200 and was equally frustrated with it. Now I have an aztek and cant wait to get my new BADGER in the mail. Plus I have already chosen which Iwata I am gonna get ofr my second brush, you see I am from that old mold that uses 2 brushes to do models in. with the way brushes are now I wont actually need to have my Iwata but no artist of this field should be without an BADGER or an iwata. God bless us paint throwers!! Now Paashe…that was the very first airbrush I ever owned and you notice I am going BADGER and Iwata…[;)].
Salydog…weather me another plane will ya [;)], I need some more reference pics.
wow, mike, a topic without smilies!!!

jeff, i’m planning my next victim soon my friend. it gonna be an F4F wildcat that hopefully has seen better days. hope it turns out. you’re definetly gonna want to get that iwata on the way asap for weathering though!![;)][:P][:D]
Hmm low pres and gravity fed…think the omni will be fine [^]
WOW!
What’s going on here?!?!
I did’nt want to start a debate but I guess it was inevitble [:(]
Look, I dont feel I want to take part in the Iwata Vs. Badger war. To my opinione the Eclipse is the best all arounder AB out there for me
I dont want to degrade any paasche, badger or any other brand fans.
I did tried it today and yesterday. It is a dream come true!
I could’nt even get any close to that kind of performance with my old Paasche VL.
Woodbeck3, I’m sure you like your omni and thats fine with me. I belive that Airbrushes are the tool that we can express our true artistic nature (please dont laugh I now it sounds too philosophic).
I dont like the smily you used ([^]) it’s kinda telling me “Hey, ShModeler Mine is better then yours”
Maybe it was’nt your attempt and maybe it was’nt aimed at me, but it sure made me feel like that.
But when thinking about the nature of men, I guess it’s hopeless to avoide such clashes. So woodbeck3, all forgiven![^]
I really like my new Iwata. I think it’s the best thing ever happened to me in my modelling life. Yep! it’s even better then “getting that most wanted kit” because Without the-best-for-me AB it would be crap!
Well Chris, Kingthad and all the other Iwata lovers, I guess I’m on your side now.
Hmmm… feels like the Army again.
You dont want to be there but you have to cause this is life. [2c]
Cliff, for my part in pulling your thread off topic I apologize.
Chris (saltydog), MikeV and I are always barbing each other about Iwata vs. Badger and it is all in jest. Iwatas are great airbrushes and so are Badgers. Just like many other things, the difference is simply in which one you prefer.
Shahar,
I agree with Scott. We love to play around like the Ford and Chevy guys do. [;)]
All that matters is that you like your airbrush and that is the ONLY thing that is important.
Keep us informed on how you like it.
Shalom
Mike
Ahhh… allow me to correct somthing…
My name is not Cliff. My name shahar. (yea difficult to pronounce…) the middle H is like in the word Hanucka. So Sh stands for the first letter (in hebrew) and Modeler, well that obviose. some people say I should write my name Shachar, but the ‘ch’ will probably be pronounced like the word Czeck republick… so I prefer it that way.
Cliff burton was the bass player of Metallica (Yes, I am a Flyboy-treadhead-metalhead). He died in 1986 in a horrible bus accident)
I only quoted one of the songs that he wrote, I put it in my “favourite quote” cause these lonesome words really speaks to me.
Thanks!
Shahar, I apologize again. It’s been that kind of week so far. I saw Cliff and your English is so good I just jumped to a conclusion. Sorry about that.
WOW scott!! you were way off huh?! don’t worry about it shahar, people from Tennessee are strange to say the least. stay away from people like that friend![:D]
in all seriousness, we here at this forum are glad that you like your purchase. and i echo my friends mike and scott as we just like to hack on each other from time to time. they know that iwata is the best and that they made a mistake buying their badger products, but hey, my philosophy is live and let live.[:D][;)][:P] later.
ps. boy, i can already feel the reprecussion from this one!![B)][:D] have at it boyz, this thread ain’t dead yet!! [:o)]
Thanks Mike V!
Thank you Scott!
That’s a very nice compliment!!![;)]
Please dont appologize![8D]
The only reason I told you guys my name is because I wondered “wait, who’s Cliff??”
Chris, This thread will never end with sentences like this one:
but it’s fine by me, I cant stop laughing! [(-D]
Not about Badger ofcourse (…Yet, and I promise I’ll do that if you’ll drag me into it).
Well I’m taking my steps slowly with my Eclipse, and I dont think I can describe it in words! I’m speachless! [tup]
Thank you Iwata! [bow]
Hey Scott, can you believe this guy? That Alabama humidity has really started to deteriorate his brain. I thought Alabama was a buy American state? I think I am going to have to round up some of the good 'ol boys from Birmingham and come on over and show this boy what we think of them 'thar foreign airbrushes. 
[(-D]
Mike
mike, that whipping post smilie is just too funny!!![(-D][(-D][(-D] nice comeback i must say!!![:D][B)][B)][:(!]
shahar, you’re beginning to scare me a bit, its only an airbrush my friend![:D]
It wouldn’t work, Mike. It’s a good thought, but it wouldn’t work. Try as you might you probably couldn’t find a half dozen people in the whole state of Alabama that would even understand what the term “Airbrush” meant. “I used to have me a HAIR brush, back when I had hair, and I used to have me a TOOTH brush, back when I had teeth, but why in tarnation would you want to brush the AIR???”
And even if you did, THAT’S when he’d hide the Iwata and whip out the Omni and say, “See! Made in America!”
Just kidding, Chris. I have a lot of friends in Alabama and it’s a great place.
[(-D][:D][:(][B)][B)][:o)]
That was great Scott! [(-D][(-D][(-D]
This is starting to sound like a Jeff Foxworthy skit now. [:P]
Mike
What is sad about Jeff Foxworthy is, he’s not lying or exaggerating most of the time. its funny, but true in most cases!![:D] i don’t consider myself a bonefied redneck because i can’t answer “yes” to hardly any of those “you might be a redneck if” lines. but i know plenty that can friend!!![V] i could care less about a 4-wheel drive, don’t even own a firearm except for a benjamin pellet gun i got when i was a kid, i dont have pieces of cars lying around in my yard (though my brother does), i have no desire to hunt, fish, modify my engine in any way, shape or form, dont like country music, dont go near rivers much at all or go camping, nor do i care to. i dont care that much for racing either. yes, i check up on matt kenseth and tony stewart because i love DeWalt tools and buy most of them at Home Depot. but, i do speak the language fluently. later.
scott, i’m headed your way tomorrow (thursday 1) to columbia TN. i’m already taking preventive medication for when i start seeing those “Vols Country” signs on the side of the roads. and whats with the chevy malibu state trooper cars? what a dorky looking ride for a state trooper car. that cracks me up but i still slow down!![:D]
.
Hmm… sounds like there are several “labels” that one have to wear for being a redneck.
That is so true even here in Israel. [:(!][V]
I was born in Israel, my girlfriend (Not the new Japanese girl…[:p]) was born in the Ukraine. In1991 Many Russian (Jews mostly) came to Israel after the breakup of the Soviet unione, Now days there nomber is about 1.6 Millione.
She speaks Russian with her mom and dad, she speaks hebrew with me. We are two completly different people yet we communicate like we know each other for years.
My parents were born in Moroco and Tunisia(!). “Usually” people like me should were a dark skin. Not dark brown but more of a dark tan. I am the complete opposite. I am very white with green eyes, so no one can tell my true origin since I’m not in the “Standardly-expected-look”.
To Israeli eyes, I’m beeing mistakin as when one sees me he will automaticly “Label” me as a Russian born.
Even Russian born are beeing missled and speak to me in Russian.
For some sad and stupid reason, it’s allways “important” to know where youre parents were born and where do you live.
How stupid is that?!?!?![xx(]
Israel is a complete mix up of people from all over the world. Since the 1950’s people from Europe (Polish, Rumanian, Turkish, French, and so on…) and people from Yemen Iraq Iran Moroco Algere Libya Egypt Tunisia and on and on… came to israel.
The nomber of combinations here is endless! Yet from one unexplainable reason we divide and label.
Ofcourse that everything here is in a good spirit cause after all you are all americans, and the 4th of july is just around the corner[bday]
so you’d better be friends…[:D][:D][:D]
But I just wanted to show you guys that there is no way of escaping from it!
Sometimes its anoying but most of the time its funny!
So keep up the good spirit!
It’s waaayyyy offtopic now, but I sure like to see your kindried spirits here.
All the wars around me make me to forget about such things like that sometimes…
Chris, I know that the nighbour’s grass is always greener, but I would take that kind of life any time. It’s just getting harder and harder everyday here.[V]
By the way you wrote:
would please explain why? I did’nt get it…
More than people would think! I ran a survey crew for 12 years and did surveys in some out of the way places. A lot of what Foxworthy says truly does represent some parts of this area [:)]
Jeeeeeez … don’t say that so loud around here!!! Can you at least spell NASCAR?
Word of advice … leave the Crimson Tide stuff at the state line. Last I heard it’s open season on them.
What’s the deal with the Malibu? Simple, in two words: “Lowest Bidder” .
Be careful on the roads. It gets crazy around holidays, but I’m sure you know that.
