Cheers mate it is probably one of the difficultist things trying to take a photo of chrome because of the flashback into the lense.. Pictures don't do it any justice realy as it looks better in the flesh... I'm off to work so be back later and I'll add some more

Sorry to post this on your thread but is this the right sort of thing to be looking at Looks like a good deal for the price and I would say a good perchase but if your thinking of using an airbrush more often than just this kit then i would spend a bit more and go for the Aztec (IMO) A good beginers setup and should give you good results Hope that helps Sean and no probs posting on here
