The Vega 2000 kit sells for $65 with free shipping at Dixie Art, and the airbrush alone sells for $48.95.

They are very good quality. Check out my T-shirt artwork here:

These were all painted with a Vega 2000 with the #3 tip and needle.

Thanks. Big Smile [:D]

You can run it off of any air source with the right fittings. I would go with a compressor if you can as those air cans get REAL expensive after a while.

Kid,

Take a look at this one from Dixie Art. It's a killer deal for $199 with a regulator.
