I used to work at a little airbrush shop..

if you've done any airbrushing before and have experience with a double action airbrush this is what i would suggest

we always used iwata airbrushes and have had great success with them, they are my favorite so far

We mainly used this Eclipse series HP-BCS in the shop, its a good mulit-purpose brush and is bottle fed so it worked great for our applications... heres the link

At home now a days i use my Revolution CR which is a gravity fed brush, its an entry level brush so not too pricy... only thing i dont like about it is the lack of bottle like when i was at the shop (a ton faster)

Just remember to always keep it cleaned out and be patient and have fun with it

let me know how it works out
