wanting to get into airbrushing

[t-maxxracer32]

hello guys i am looking for some type of hobby to keep me busy while not at work and i think this would be cool.

not only will i be able to paint my own bodies but maybe one day i will be able to sell bodies!

so what type of things will be needed to start this hobby?

-airbrush
-paint
-mask
-compressor (i have one that is used to airup tires and such... will this work?)

what else is needeD?

im thinking about gettin some type of iwata starter kit for around 250-300? is that about right?

do any of you have tips for me to get started?

thanks for any help!
