Are there any experts on here?

I'm looking for a complete kit to help with a few projects I've got coming up :)

Probably not ideal but I don't really want to spend too much to start with, maybe £100-£150? I don't need the airbrush as a true airbrush for now, just after a very accurate way of spray painting some small projects.

Any advice on paints to go with the kit also appreciated :)
 
Mate's brother uses an ancient airbrush he got from Ebay, and a moped wheel/tyre as his air source - put another valve in the wheel and connected up a cheapo electric tyre pump. That way it buffers the pulses from the pump. Does some awesome custom work, as well.
 
I picked up a dual action brush iwata single action and iwata compressor for £160 something like that would be ideal for you from the sounds of it, airbrushing isn't for me, far too much hand eye coordination lol.
 
I'm not an expert by a very far stretch, but I use an airbrush for repair work and find the small airbrush compressor/tank setup from Ebay fantastic. The tank buffers the pulses and it gives a great airflow. The two cheap air brushes that came with it seem to work very well too (they're Chinese copies of "good" brushes).
