Also... is there any advantage to single action over double action or bottom feed over top feed.

Does anybody else have any two (or 3) cents on airbrushing?

Double action is where you can control the paint-flow and the air-flow (on-off).

Bottom feed works as a siphon (sp?) feed. It works by taking the vacuum of air going out of the airbrush to propel the paint through the needle.

Top-feed is a gravity fed airbrush. the paint is always ready when you need it so there isn't any lag when compared to a bottom feed. You can achieve greater results using a top-feed dual-action airbrush. But they cost more and must be maintained in order to work to their fullest!
