The T&C AirStar V is great for modeling but it does not produce enough CFM of air to run a nailgun and doing so will only end it's life quickly.
The little C-H "Quiet Compressor" that some people own is also notorious for dying quickly if worked too hard.
You can't really have both high enough CFM for a nailgun, filling tires, etc, as well as airbrushing and have it quiet too, unless you want to spend $2000 for a compressor.
I would buy a good industrial compressor from Sears and put it in a shed or something and run an airhose to where you paint. It will be almost silent that way and will also do anything else you might need a compressor to do.

“Wisdom is the right use of knowledge. To know is not
to be wise. Many men know a great deal, and are all the greater fools
for it. There is no fool so great a fool as a knowing fool. But to know
how to use knowledge is to have wisdom. " Charles Spurgeon
