I have a Badger, a Aztec (Testors) and a cheapie double action that I got at Harbor Freight. I also got my compresser at Harbor Freight. That said, I usually use spray cans. Cleaning airbrushes is a pain. Take Care Craig

Airbrushes, 1 Badger 155 Anthem, a joy to use 2, Iwata Eclipse gravity feed, Excellent all around, 3. Iwata Eclipse siphon feed, Excellent all around, 2 Aztec, with ,many tips , OK for different stuff. Air source a turned aluminum tank w, regulator and gauge. A very old homemade compressor that uses a Cadillac A/C tank and has a regulator and gauge. A Pasche D500 compressor, I hate... Why so much, I bought the Badger, Aztec and D500 compressor, everything else I picked up at a yard sale for $20. the guy tried it once, scared the hell out of him, and sold everything, I think he was a bit hard up for cash..

I have a Badger 200 and an Aztec. I rarely use the Aztec, just don't like it. Too light in my hand, and the heads don't clean as well and easily as the ads say. I use the Badger mostly. Not the most high tech a/b, but its a good all-around brush. Easy to use, sprays all types of paint, and easy to clean. Like all airbrushes you have to practice with it to find out the best mixtures, pressure and techniques that will work for you. Air source is a 'silent' adjustable compressor by Air Force.
HTH, Sandy
