Which Iwata would you reccomend: Revolution HP-CR, HP-C, or Eclipse HP-CS?

[Lady Jemima]

I've decided that I would like to purchase an Iwata. Several people have recommended them, they seem like very well-made and easy-to-use brushes, and I just get an overall good feeling about them.

Putting budget aside for the moment, I've come up with three brushes that seem as though they would fit my needs:

~Revolutoin HP-CR
~Revolution HP-C
~Eclipse HP-CS

Which one would you recommend for a beginner (albeit an artistic beginner)? I need a brush that is easy to use, easy to clean (this is important), and doesn't need replacements terribly often, and doesn't require a million add-ons.

I'm leaning strongly to the Revolution HP-CR because it is within my price range.

Hopefully this is the last time I'll need brand advice.

Well, I'vegot the Revolution CR, and the Eclipse BCS. They're both great brushes for beginning! I don't think you're going to be disappointed with either of those. But I would still recommend the Eclipse for the reason of bottles! THey're so quick and easy to use. I actually use film canisters with the metal AB nipples screwed into the tops. Cheap, easy to clean, easy to mix with... But ultimatly <SP> the choice is yours. Good luck, and keep us posted...

Eclipse......just slightly better atomization but if you re just starting you wont miss it!

With the eclipse CS, if you just need a small amount of one color, you can put a few drops in. Less wasted paint, and cleaning.

I to would start off with the cs and golden paint this combo is easy to start with the paint is ready to use a big + for us new-abers. maybe later on when you want to paint larger things get a bcs the cups are quick and great for bigger jobs when you need to paint more and switch colors. JMOI
