I've no experience with airbrushes. Looking for one to use w/ my son to build plastic models.Is this a good choice for that purpose?

You will need a pump for the paint to be forced out, but this is very easy to use. Just make sure you clean it VERY GOOD (Take the spray tip and adjuster apart and soak in solvents) after using solvent based paints.

This might be a bit too complex for a first model. I would suggest one of the Snap-Tite kits that are also available on Amazon. The F/A-18E will be a good kit after the young modeler has assembled a few of the simpler kits first.

While you can use a regular compressor, that is not an ideal setup. First of all, most regulators on bigger compressors do not have the capability to make the smaller adjustments necessary for airbrushing. Secondly, you will absolutely need a moisture trap. Thirdly, a regular compressor is going to be a lot noisier ad present location problems. And finally, adapting from airbrush fittings to a standard compressor fitting would be a challenge. You will be better off to buy a compressor built specifically for airbrushing.

The Krome is great, got to keep it clean, just like any other airbrush. I do not know much about the Sotar, other than the review's. I would say it is a cheaper version of the Krome. For durability the Krome is great. I paint models with it. Breaking it down to clean after a session is a bit taxing but I'm happy with it. I would think the Sotar is great for it's price. I might get one for a back up. The Krome is awesome, I wanted it because it was all metal and will stand up to the use after several sessions.

Yes, it comes with a basic sprayer & compressor kit. It is everything, that is needed to start airbrushing model kits.

Actualy mine was named as a cosmetic airbrush although I use it for model making. It is a FANTASTIC bargan. One of those airbrushes alone would cost over a hundred bucks by them self. I have been very happy with mine. But the answer is YES, it would work just fine with airbrush cosmetics. I see no reason why it wouldn't.

I'd recommend the dual-action. You'll have more control, and fine detail work. The single action is fine for me, spraying diorama scenery, etc.

It does come with a can of airbrush propelant that will allow you to paint a few models. So you dont need a compressor right off but will want to invest in one later

I just got it a few days ago for my airbrush and, so far, it works fine for that. I don't know about it's long term reliability but internet reports of that are encouraging.

I bought mine to use for air-brushing my model cars and I love it. It is super-quiet and fills the tank in seconds! It is by far the best compressor I've ever had for my hobby-work! (I've had at least 5 others).

I don't have enough experience with air brushing to give an adequate response as to a materials/tools and equipment list, however I would recommend googling your question. Also, a highly rated begginger airbrush book is a good place to start.

Great airbrush. Just connect the airbrush to some air, fill the bottle with paint and spray away. I am extremely pleased with this Master S62 airbrush kit.

Ideal for Auto Air and Wicked type paints. Water based. Even though it has a 3.5 needle I can get hair line size painting. Great airbrush that professionals use.

Yes, you can. All connections are pretty much universal. I have used two different air brushes with this machine. BTW, for the money I found this machine excellent for the non pro artist and hobbyist. Hope this helps.
