It's a really good idea to get a good airbrush and H&S Evolution - close to the Ultra - is what I usually recommend and what I use next to another H&S airbrush myself.
Key advantage is that you can easily and reliably disassemble the airbrush, without anything fiddly that is excessivly likely to break, as is common with many cheap airbrushes. In normal operation cleaning the airbrush is something you do often. Since the H&S uses a floating nozzle, you don't have to worry about the exact alignment of a screw-in nozzle or the torque to fasten it.
Replacement parts are easily available and allow you to change your airbrush to a different needle/nozzle. The 0,4mm set is the workhorse.
Finally, H&S gives you good gradual control on both air and paint, which permits you to work differently from other brands, which can be a bit more all or nothing.
So 5/5 would definitely recommend.
For the compressor, most of what you can buy comes from a few factories in China.If you buy a compressor for airbrush, it will come with a manometer and a water trap. It's better if the thing has a tank and it should do at least 4 bar / 60 psi. More is better since you can then work with higher pressure permanently if the material you are using (bigger pigments in true metallic paint, priming, special effects) demands it.
