Not sure about the airbrush but this set comes from John's shop here on the forum.
Think a lot of the guys have the compressor, I do and always done well .
John is out of stock at the moment, but you can find these on the net as well . It comes in under the £ 100 mark.

It is! Served me well for a while, although I've now upgraded the airbrush.

Isaac,
been using the AS186 for many years now - and recently bought a 0.2mm Airbrush from John at SMS.

I used the AS186 for several years and it is a good compressor.

The packaged airbrushes are OK but I would recommend that you get a gravity fed a/b such as in the links John provides. A time may come when you decide to upgrade the airbrush though but these bundled ones are a good place to start.

Hi guys ive done a bit of airbrushing for the first time an I must admit I dint like how it turned out but looking at your model's on here im beginning to have a rethink about buying one. but out of the two that are mentioned above which is the best one ? chris

[Dave Ward]

Chris,
I don't know about 'best', as I haven't owned both type of compressor, BUT I have owned an AS 186 since September 2013. It is reliable, portable, and quiet enough to be able to hold a conversation when running. The air tank gives a continuous steady flow at your set pressure. The cylinder head gets hot, but I've never had it cut out on overheating.
Airbrushing takes practice, finding the correct pressures, and the right ratio of mix for your style can only really be found by trying them out...................

Ok cheers Dave i'll have a think about it chris
