I sprayed some with it just now. I like it. Parts look identical to the Gaahleri Mobius but it sure doesn't act like it.
 
It's like other people's hairdos. I have NO room to criticize.
I'm on my 4th Testors Aztek, with one more left. I do have a Tamiya Sprayworks airbrush I rarely use.
 
I used one of my basic H&S brushes yesterday with the .6 tip and needle and sprayed the red primer on the carriage of my howitzer. To clean the Vallejo primer out, I use lacquer thinner which works great. I only thin the Vallejo with Vallejo airbrush thinner and a bit of Vallejo flow improver.

To get the H&S Airbrushes cleaned at the end of a session, I spray it out, add lacquer thinner (which dissolves Vallejo fairly well), spray it out, then take the tip off, and pull the needle out the front. Take the cup off, and use Q-Tips and the Gum between the teeth brushes as in this photo.

I received this on the last Monday of September but only recently opened it up and it is, like all Cold War Studios, excellent in value and a comprehensive correction and detail set!

Its a shame amazon tend to beat most model shops on price however i think some of their items are supplied by model shops just via amazon...
As someone who used to run my business in competition with amazon i have huge sympathy with private retailers. The real problem or should i say decider in most cases is the postal service is so bad now that Amazon win because you just know you will get the item the next day if not the same day
The PE I ordered for my ship managed to do 5600 miles to the UK in 2 days and now its been sitting in customs just 20 miles away for 2 days and yet because of the value its not even liable for customs duty.
