Hi there

I noticed the other day in my local Lidl what looks to be quite a handy basic airbrush set. It includes a compressor and single-action airbrush, plus water colour paints and an air-gun for about £45. It doesn't look to have a moisture trap or pressure regulator, but it could make a decent starter set or back-up compressor.

As usual with Lidl, grab it while you can if you want one, because things aren't always in stock.

All the best

Got one last year Rowan, and I coupled it up to my mini tank from a broke commpressor and it works fine. Sold the airbrush for £10 in ebay so it cost me £35 sweet.

Hi Peter

Very sweet indeed! It's calling to me to buy one - I don't need it... but of course that how Lidl do so well with their racks of bargains!

All the best
