Couple Questions

Hello

Can someone recomend me a good beginner friendly airbrush and compressor? Not looking to spend a great deal on it. Just something basic for now. I need something that is kinda in a "complete package" with different types of needles, tools, etc etc. I will be going to Hobby Lobby with in the next 2-3 days do they sell good ones?

Also is there a website out there that has decal and flame masks I can print or download off the net anywhere for a 1/24 and 1/25 scale plastic model car/truck kits? Only website I know of is http://www.rcxotic.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=1 and they specialize on R/C Car masks not sure if they will fit model car size.

Thanks for any info.

RC masks will not fit model cars.

Well, you could prolly ask them if they make masks for Kyosho Mini-Z racers or some other small R/C's.

My dad owns a Paasche Airbrush, I guess it came with 2 needles (high and low flow) and the color cup, but that's it. Paasche makes great airbrushes, but they're super expensive.

Yea i kinda figured it wouldnt fit. I stink at drawing so I couldnt draw out my own flames or designs. I love the tribal ones but dang it I cant draw it LoL ! Thanks for the reply

You could, however, resize flame graphics and print them out for 1/24 scale cars like you said. You'd really only need a rough length and width measurement.

Im not sure exactly how I would resize it. Any ideas what program I need to use ?

Those are cool!
I often use MS Word to resize pix, I guess you could do it in paint as well.
there's a free program (Irfanview) I think. That is popular as well.
Buy a better airbrush and a cheap compressor. The Autoparts stores seem to have compressors on sale for about $40 bux most of the time.
The hard part to find is a filter/regulator.
I don't think the testors/aztec airbrushes are a good choice for beginners simply because they are a pain to clean, and a clean airbrush is a happy airbrush.
Anyway, I was in a HL a couple of days ago and saw a coleman compressor and a silentaire too. I did'nt look at prices or check their AB selection though.
