Need an airbrush to buy or rent. Not one that runs off of canned air, one that hooks up to a compressor.

i used to have a harbor freight on that worked really good surprisingly. i took it apart to clean it one day and lost the spring. but it wasn't bad and cost maybe 20$ although i doubt its good for real air brushing. i just used to use it in the body shop to touch up corners of fenders and bumpers

Go to AC more, that where I picked up mine. With the 30% coupon in all of their circulars, you can get a great set-up for less than $100.

Those are considered good? (Not being smartass, don't know). I figured since AC Moore is a DIY craft place that the quality of that kinda stuff wasn't great. I don't mind spending a bit if it is quality, not temperamental and will last. I actually like air-brushing quite a bit and for my first project turned out pretty good.

Yeah, I've gotten my supplies from there on the regular. You can also get books for technique and all that, too.
