Plenty of wonderful tutorials on you tube about airbrushing. I personally love the Iwata brushes. I strongly recommend an air compressor with a tank to buffer the air supply. This one got good reviews (I own an Iwata compressor but it is a lot more money)

I bought an Iwata Eclipse CS based on a recommendation from one of my buddies on MSW. I've also been watching lots of YouTube videos, and experimenting with different degrees of paint thinning and air pressure. I bought a Gaahleri table top compressor as a start, but I've quickly realized I need to move up to one with a tank. My birthday is in August, so that may be my present to myself. I was looking at a Sparmax.

Almost any compressor with a tank will do. However if you are working indoors it really pays to invest in the quietest compressor you can afford. That Sparmax looks like a good product. I have the Iwata eclipse and I think it is great. Make sure you clean it well between painting sessions.

With all my experimenting with various degrees of paint thinning and air pressure I've gottenvery proficient at cleaning my airbrush :)
