Anything from www.bearair.com. I love the Peak airbrushes. Under $100.00 when you buy a compressor combo.

There is one that walmart carries called the mighty mini. It is made by Testors. It comes with a compressor and all for like 50 bucks. Has anyone had any experence with this? I can't justify the money to buy one of those really nice ones when I don't paint bodies all the time, only one to exact, lol.

Please stay away from Testors equipment. I recently bought a $200 Aztek metal kit and after a week my dog broke it in two because a lot of it is made from plastic and my dog likes plastic. Well, of course I was prepared to shell out some $$ to get it repaired, but Testors said they can not repair or provide parts for any of the airbrushes and I was basically out of luck! I mailed it to their CEO and told him where he could put it.

Give a serious airbrush like the Peak, Badgers, or Geko's. Anything around $70-99 will get you a no nonsense (gimmick free) all metal airbrush. And for about $80 more dollars you can have a nearly silent compressor to go with it.

Just my 2 cents.
