I have been looking around for a few hours trying to find the most sensible way to get started airbrushing. So far today this is what I have found.

The total before tax for these items is $95.86.

If I am not mistaken the only thing missing is a few fittings.

This looks like a great deal to me. Please comment

Looks like a decent setup to get you started. I'd say go for it.

I have to convince the wife. She can use it for nail art and makeup right?

Technically yes. It would take quite a bit of practice and i imagine that you would be doing the nail art. Also, i did nt see it on the mobile site, That co.pressor doesn't list the decibel rating though. So it might be quite loud while th e tank is filled. Although one of the reviews said it wasn't that loud. You might need to set up in the garage.

I have an unused room with a closet. I thought just keeping it in there with a nice long hose to reach the bathroom and table would be the best way to quiet it down.

Might work. Take care that there is good ventilation in the room going outside. You'll also want to invest in a respirator that is classed to handle atomised paint.

Seriously though for a bill you can't go wrong. Eventually you might want to invest in a better airbrush. But the Chinese ones St the job done and are so cheap.

I was planning on upgrading the airbrush sometime. I was inspired by this guy and his other videos, he does amazing work.
