Whoops... there doesn't seem to be anything here.

Compressor is fine, but don't bother with that airbrush.

If you only intend on basecoating, get a Badger-250. Siphon feed, single action that sprays similar to a rattlecan.

If you intend on getting any further into airbrushing though, it's more worth your money and time to invest a bit more into a decent airbrush. Why spend $25 now just to buy a more expensive brush later, compounding your costs, when you could just invest a little more now and not need to worry about it?

I always speak highly of the Badger 105 Patriot. Dual action, gravity fed. Good for base coating, and doing more finely tuned, detail work (if the need arises). Got mine off Amazon for ~$60.
Another decent (yet economic) brush set would be the Iwata Neo series.

Besides an investment in a better airbrush, you'll want to look at your ability to obtain replacement parts in case of a breakage or loss of pieces (during cleaning, siblings, children, annoying roommates, etc). The airbrush you link to is a no name-brand brush, and would probably be difficult to get replacement parts for. That airbrush is from Hong Kong. Does that mean replacement parts would have to be ordered from there as well? Who's to pay for the shipping then? How long would your brush be down while waiting for delivery? Yuck.

If you get a bit better airbrush and change your mind, Sell it on ebay and call it a day.

My only other piece of advise would be to take proper care of whatever airbrush you purchase. Look up tutorials on cleaning it, properly lubricating it. DON'T let paint dry in it, and you have to break it down fully when cleaning at the end of the day.

Good luck

Wow, price went up quite a bit.

I apologize for not mentioning it earlier, it slipped my mind:
A good source of all things airbrush related would be:
http://www.chicagoairbrushsupply.com/

Many different brands, applicable parts, reviews, and a helpful staff to email in-case you have technical questions. Shoot them an email if you would like more direction in your search.
The Badger Patriot I mentioned earlier is only $74 there, if it's any idea as to what kind of prices you'll be looking at.

TCP Global lists two Patriot models for about $95, each, but I also recall finding them for less than that, before. Pretty sure I only paid $60 for my SOTAR through Amazon and was surprised to see the Patriot going for so much more. If you find a more reasonable price (CAS doesn't look bad, but you may find one cheaper if you look around), I think a Patriot will treat you better than a Neo, in the long run. Easier to get parts for a Badger, too.

Whoops... there doesn't seem to be anything here.

Excellent to hear you found what you needed.

Here at Dakka tho, we fully expect to see some minis put to the brush, so get sprayin'!

Good luck!
