I don't know much about the Master air brush setup. On paper it looks pretty good. Hopefully someone responds who has experience with some of these products.

I guess if it was me I would piece together a system with specific parts. Gravity feed, double action, these are things that are very useful to have. A good tip size to target is 0.3 mm. It will shoot fine details well and will still be large enough to base coat your lures in a large spray pattern. The only limitation I see is that sometimes the pearlized colors will clog, but I still use it for that as well. A 0.5 mm airbrush might be better for that.

Iwata airbrushes are very well regarded. I got a HP-C for under $100 as they were switching the to the newer HP-C Plus models. Either are really great brushes. I feel like I will not outgrow it's capabilities, rather I'm still trying to catch up to what it can do. You can go many different directions with air compressors. Sounds like the one you are looking at in the package is made for airbrush work. Lower pressure and pretty quiet. If you don't mind the noise, a regular compressor works fine. I added a moisture/oil trap and a regulator to a pancake style compressor purchased for well under $100 and it works fine (I also use it for finish nailer!). But it is louder I'm sure than the one you're looking at. That would still leave $100 to spend on paint, and you could buy a ton of paint in the colors you wanted for that. Probably also have money left over for 2 part epoxy, acid bruses, etc. Good luck

I got pretty much the same set-up from TCP (cept I got an Iwata HP-C plus) for about the same price. I love the airbrush - compressor had a wire cut when I got it but TCP sent another right away and I fixed the original one so I got two outta the deal. Don't know about the master but if they'll let you get the iwata in place of it, I'd recommend it.

I agree. If you can get an Iwata brush for the same money, do it.

Iwata is the airbrush that the Chinese knockoffs, like Master, copy, for a reason. It is "state of the art" for what we do, and much better made than the knockoffs. I own both, so this is a first hand report.

Thanks for the info guys im going to look into the iwata guns. About the air compressor i can use a regular air compressor? Because i have a 26 or 30 Gallon air compressor can i use that? Do i need to buy a adapter to make it fit the air gun? Sorry for all the questions i just want to get everything right :D

Your 30 gallon will work fine. If there is something you don't like about it, at least you can then later select the compressor you want for your needs. I used a 20 gallon air compressor at first and later bought a very cheap pancake one that takes up far less space in my utility room. Both work the same because they both keep the air pressure plenty high. You want a combination oil/water trap and regulator for any kind of air compressor. Although your compressor will keep the pressure 50-100 psi, you will be using between 7 and 25 psi for most painting applications, thus the need for the regulator.

You will have to get the necessary adaptros to make everything fit. It should all be at home depot. I used a quick connect tubing connector on my Iwata so that I could run a long length of plastic tubing to my filtered/regulated air supply just after the compressor.
