Jackster, I use a Iwata compressor and airbrush. The compressor is a Studio Series and the airbrush is the Eclipse. If you have a Hobby Lobby near by the newspaper usually has a 40% off coupon in it or you can go online and print a coupon off. One catch, one coupon per day per customer per item. The compressor was $199.95 and the brush was $189.85 so the coupon really helps. I really like what I have and am able to do rather decent with it. Hope this helps. Oh and they keep plenty of repair parts in stock as well.
