airbrush Q's

[nismo_power]

recently, ive been flirting with the idea of getting an airbrush, but im not too sure as to what to get. i have used auto paint guns (not for models!) and i really like the finish they give, a nice even and smooth yet detailed layer. i want that same detail on my models. so airbrush here i come!

the questions i have are whats a good kit to start out on. im not an expert at it, so i dont need a high end model. basic functions would be nice such as flow and air control.

i was thinking along the lines of something like these:

opinions? suggestions?

Your gonna wana get a air brush thats "Duel Action" You also should invest in a Air Compressor. For a more controlled air flow.

Im no Expert, These are just a few hints.

dubbel action pistol (I have a harder and steenbeck 2 in one) preferably with a paint limiter (don't know if it's the right term) you with a compressor. But that will cost you a lot. If you look for something cheaper I really would advace you to buy an internal mix airbrush type. Those external types you mentioned are a lot cheaper but a LOT worse.
I have a badger 200 as a first airbrush and it's a really decent airbrush. A bit fragile but if you handle with care it would last a life time. It's also a widly spread airbrush, so finding replacment parts shouldn't be that hard.
And check this forum. Lots of tips here.
