International Airbrush Competition

Midwest Airbrush Supply is a proud sponsor of the Sparmax International Airbrush Competition!

Since 2016, this competition has celebrated outstanding achievements in realism, fantasy, automotive, and hobby art. Now, the competition is entering an exciting new chapter. In 2026, Iwata-Medea will join as a co-host, expanding the event’s global reach and impact. Selected artworks will be showcased at the IWATA Annual Art Exhibition & Open House, honoring the creativity, skill, and passion of airbrush artists worldwide.
