I have a commission so I can’t do other reroots and maybe exhaust my shoulder so let’s review this junk added to my nicotine stank impulse purchase.
The barbie airbrush*
first of all, let’s go to youtube (watch at 2x speed): CookieSwirl manages to stay positive by just using the markers as is and immediately gave it away: https://youtu.be/Ki0IapmMaa0

Ok let’s see how and why it doesn’t work. First of all the nozzle isn’t an aperture, it’s just a hole and the nozzle merely brings more of the marker in contact with the air tube. Secondly: there’s no air pressure variation. I don’t have the proprietary markers so I’m going to block up the tube with a pen and dip it in diluted acrylic paint to see if it’ll splatter it: splatter vs drip? about once in ten.
My review: *absolutely not an airbrush, at least i got 4 free batteries. use tiny plastic straws for airbrushing with your kids at least you have better airflow control. Literally would have worked better with blow markers.
If you have this item in your house: Slice off the wire, place the tip of your scissors into the nozzle hole and turn until you’ve shaved open a larger hole, insert a pen torch and turn this into a sci fi ray-gun.
