Claim:
An airbrush comprising: a brush body having an internal receiving space, the brush body longitudinally having a head section and a tail section distal from each other, the head section having a color outlet, a color cup being disposed on the brush body near the head section for containing a color, a bottom of the color cup communicating with the color outlet; a nozzle disposed in the head section of the brush body, the nozzle having a first connecting section and a second connecting section opposite to the first connecting section, the second connecting section being disposed in the color outlet, the nozzle being formed with a nozzle passage extending through the nozzle from the first connecting section to the second connecting section, the nozzle passage communicating with the color outlet; a nozzle cap having a first receiving cavity in which the head section is enclosed, the nozzle being received in the first receiving cavity, the nozzle cap being formed with a first opening communicating with the first receiving cavity corresponding to the nozzle, whereby the first connecting section of the nozzle is fitted through the first opening; an airway disposed in the brush body and communicating with the nozzle; an intake pipe disposed under the brush body and communicating with the airway, whereby an external high-pressure air can pass through the airway and flow to the nozzle; a control mechanism disposed in the receiving space of the brush body for controlling the flow way of the nozzle passage; and an intake mechanism disposed in the intake pipe for blocking/unblocking the airflow way of the intake pipe, said airbrush being characterized in that the nozzle has a projecting stopper section disposed between the first and second connecting sections, a ventilating plate being fitted on the first connecting section, the ventilating plate having a first abutting face and a second abutting face, a through hole passing through the ventilating plate from the first abutting face to the second abutting face, the first connecting section being fitted through the through hole, the ventilating plate being formed with at least one ventilating section, a shoulder section being formed in the first receiving cavity of the nozzle cap for pressing the first abutting face of the ventilating plate, whereby the second abutting face abuts against one side of the stopper section of the nozzle to make the other side of the stopper section tightly abut against a circumference of the color outlet of the head section.
