First off {#welcome] to the forums! Pull up a keyboard and stay a while.
It's
nice to see more of the "younger" crowd getting involved in this hobby.
Don't forget to take time out to chase girls though!
MusicCity is the definitive info source for airbrushes around here, have a look at
MusicCity You'll
be able to see a master builder's models, but there's more! Scroll down
for lots of airbrush tips and tricks as well as general paint and
modeling stuff.
Swanny's is cool, too, another master. I can
link directly to his tools and tips page, but do look at his models as
well. One of the best out there.
Swanny's My
word of caution. Don't buy a cheap crappo airbrush. They aren't very
good, and you won't really be learning the techniques properly.
Dixie
Art &
Bear Air are two
very reputable and inexpensive places to buy online.
I can
personally attest to the Badger 150 as a great learner's model, that is
also capable of doing just about anything you can think of. Get hold of
a used compressor, or a new Garage style (noisy but cheap) and you're
off! Good Luck!
