Default Air Brush System Help for Tank Camo

I have an unpainted 1/16 Tamiya Tiger I tank that has been sitting around for some time. Can anyone please recommend a basic air brush system, with compressor, that is good for a beginner, but can be capable of fine detailed camouflage (3 tone) patterns? I've been looking at the Tamiya "Spray Work Basic Compressor System" #74520 found on Tower Hobbies?

Hi
I have had good luck with BearAir. You can find them on the net. They have good prices.

I have several airbrushes, but I recommend the Aztec A320, it is a single action airbrush that is very simple to use, and at a low cost. You can buy additional aztec nozzles later according to your needs. Check it out at YouTube.
