                        Hi

                        At this time in my life i plan on having time to get back to my childhood dreams of putting model (plastic) aircraft and ships together. I have the patience, shop, and energy to pursue my hobby at my age of 60. I have a question about air brush painting. What kind of airbrush, compressor and supplies do i need. Are ther kits that sell everything.

                        Any answers will be appreciated.

                        Thank you

                        leslow

                        Welcome to the forum Leslow. You might have a better answer if you post a question in the painting section.

                        1st off Sign - Welcome [#welcome] Home and for an A/B and Compressor.

                        Take a look at this site. http://www.dixieart.com/ , I got my Omni 4000 from them and a Scorpion II Compressor. Both work GREAT for me.

                        www.dixieart.com/Omni.html

                        www.dixieart.com/Silentaire_Scorpion_Compressors.html

                        Dixieart has GOOD prices.

                        Good Luck and let us all know what you get.

                        Welcome to the Forums Sign - Welcome [#welcome].  A good basic AB is the Paasche H3.  Lots of good compressors, but make sure you get one with a pressure regulator, water trap & air tank.

                        Regards,  Rick
