Hello,
I'm not at the stage yet, but I plan on doing a slight burst around the edge of my jazz build. Going for something similar to this;

I'm thinking of getting an airbrush gun to do it, but I'm not sure what size compressor I'd need. I don't want to spend too much as I wont be using it a lot, but I want something that would do a good job. I plan on using Nitro lacquer with a thinner obviously, so I'm not sure if this effects what size I need. I've seen this;

Is this too small, or is this kind of size common for airbrushing. or would I be better off with something like this;

Or...am I barking up the wrong tree, and should I be looking at spray guns. I have been given a Kent Aerograph Spray Gun, so could get a compressor to work with that....
I'm completely new to this kind of spraying, I've only ever used spray cans, and I reckon i could get better results with airbrush or a spray gun. Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks,
Adam
