Harder & Steenbeck Evolution Silverline

I just accepted a new job on Tuesday, and in keeping with tradition, bought myself a little something in celebration.

My rules for this splurge are pretty simple. No more than $200, and it has to be something I’ve wanted, but don’t really need. Otherwise it wouldn’t be a splurge, now would it?

This time around, I decided to throw down for a new airbrush – the Harder & Steenbeck Evolution Silverline.

Why?

I mean, I already have FOUR airbrushes. Why do I need another?

Mainly because I don’t feel I’ve found the “right” airbrush yet.

Yes, the airbrush is just a tool, and it’s how you use it that matters, but it’s also true that some tools “feel” better than others. It’s the same with cameras, computers, and socket wrenches.

I’ve been reasonably pleased with elements of my various airbrushes, but I’ve also felt a bit like Goldilocks and the porridge. From what I’ve been reading, though, the H&S seems like it may be what I’ve been looking for.

We’ll see. It should be arriving Thursday. Look for a review to follow shortly thereafter.

Hi there. Name’s Matt. Or Doogs, if you prefer. I run Doogs Studios. All the things, from roadmap planning and site stuff to designing, testing, producing, and shipping products. I also like to think about building models, but since this whole venture has taken off, I can't seem to find time. I've been getting flak for having a woefully outdated author bio, which, fair. The last one was over 15 years old!
