I built models for many years but have been out of it for a while. I have only ever used brushes and Testors enamel paints. I am working on a 1/72 Space Shuttle model that I have had in the box for years as my "comeback" project and want to paint it right. I am considering airbrushing and am looking for advice on what equipment is best for an AB newbie. Also, if I already have a compressor (the kind you use for nail guns) can it be used instead of buying a "hobby" compressor? Thanks.
