What happened to your old airbrush and what did you get in it's place if you don't mind me asking?
Pantherman
My old one was a cheap Iwata Neo. It was my first dual action. Then this happened.
Rather than buy replacement parts for a cheap airbrush, I went to my local shop (the Model Cave in Ypsilanti MI) and sought the owner's advice. He stocks Paasche and their replacement parts. Decided to buy local and buy made in America. So I ended up with a Paasche Raptor with three different needles .25, .38, and .66. Decided to buy local and buy made in America. Got a good deal too
I know, I know What ?!
How did you do that ?
BTW , I've been using a Paasche Talon for years .
. Drop it right after I took the guard off.

I remember it was very unclear exactly how it is placed, but I think it goes here on the underside of the port side gun
This is how I did miine, but maybe it is supposed to go around the barrel instead of running it's length
Sorry for the blurry pic, but it was all I had at the moment as this was super zoomed in from a shot with both my B-Wings in it and the far side was out of focus

Oh my gosh there it is! thank you so much. You are a life saver.
Also, the tips of your wing blasters have a part mine do not. I just looked at the sprue again and I don't see it. Hmmmmmm
Ok on the home stretch. More weathering/damage and then a matt coat over the top.
I poured over the sprues and I did not see them. I should not have thrown them away.

If it helps, this is the part
One each, on these two sprues
Hopefully you find them
If not, they are pretty simple and you might be able to scratch build them with some tubing and little chips from a styrene rectangle strip for the little ridges

Maybe it is time to learn to scratch build!
