I've been interested in a decent airbrush kit for awhile now.... I have no idea what I should be looking for.

My primary use is, naturally, tanks

Whats a good system? Where can I get one? Are the kits on eBay any good?

have you checked that hobby store by you yet Jordan

Skycraft doesn't have much except for cans of compressed air and basic Badger stuff, for insane prices.. they don't really cater to painters that much. Next time I'm in there I'll take a better look though.

You should check out dundas valley hobby, or most art stores carry a range of air brushes

The next time your out in Niagara, we have Niagara Central Hobbies and they carry a full range of air-brushes and more importantly, the parts to repair or replace for what ever reason. Good size inventory.

I got mine from that store.

Not saying that this is the best airbrush, but I like mine and have done all my tanks with it;

I'll have to pay that store a visit definitely! Looks like a nice store.

yep that's a good airbrush Glen

I will be carrying the Badger Krome as part of AK's line.
have had an Aztek and a Model Master set that I have used for about 20 years with fail safe operation.
Just invested in a top notch Paasche myself for that real fine detail and I like the interchangeability between cup sizes.
Airbrushing is as personal as what kind of bike you ride, your best bet is to go to an art store that has a demo day. Try one on for size and see what you like. Stay away from the cheap ones even if it means you need to save up a little bit longer, nothing like spitting spatter all over the place.
