Good thinking Badger, you really can't go wrong with either of those brushes.

If someone was to try to write an encyclopedia about Airbrushing, Brother Don would be their first point of call, and after sitting with him I doubt they would need to see anyone else.

im not sure where ur from but if u have a local hobby store with airbrush equipment (not all hobby stores carry airbrush stuff) ask them if u can play around with a couple hold them mimick airbrushing see how u feel and what feels confortable after narrowing it down to obviously the brush that works for the type of work ur doing remember the better u get the more detailed stuff ur gonna do and might be working for a couple of hours and you dont wanna be unconfortable doing ur work or feel awkward hope this helps just my 2 cents
im partial to iwatas

you can ask 10 different people and get 10 different answers on which particular brush to get - Everyone has thier favorite.
Just stay away from the cheap off brands - get a name brand brush and you will be fine.
