Advice on airbrushing kit

[LooverlijnParticipant @looverlijn]

With over 200 white metal "bits" to paint on my Yorkshireman, I have decided to do a "proper" job and air brush them and I am looking for advice not so much "what to buy" but "what not to buy" based on fellow modellers experience. I'm going for the budget end of the market but have decided to go for a mini compressor model (had bad experience with compressed air cans) and have seen a range of kits from aroun £60 to £100. A couple on Amazon look OK and of course free postage helps with a heavy item such as this. Any ideas? Also is there a good airbrush tutorial out there (Thinning paints etc)?

There is an article on this website here: **LINK**

It is intended for novices.

With your budget I would buy the kit with a air storage tank **LINK** having the air reservoir makes airbrushing smother and far more controllable and the gravity fed airbrush will produce a decent finish.
