Airbrushes are great. The main advantage is control. You can control the way the paint is aplied much more acurately, and because you can mix your own paint you have an infinite selection of colors. You can airbrush pretty much anything. I shoot acrylics and enamels mostely, but you can even airbrush nail varnish.
As for brushes, I use an Aztec double action internal feed. If find it realy easy tio use, and cleaning it (which is normal a paint in the arse with airbrushes) is really easy because of the deisgn.
You will also need a compressor to power the brush (I don't like cans of 'air', they run out at just the wring time and they are unopredictable). I got a little tankless one for about £90 (about $60US I think). Next time I'll get one with a tank though as I think they are much better.
Hope this helps, PM me if you want to know more about my setup.
