1 - Gravity fed Airbrush .5 to .3 airbrush nozzel size
2 - Compressor (with an air tank)
3 - Moisture trap
4 - Paint (Faskolor/ Createx or RCS water based)
5 - Liquid Mask (RCS , Parma Fasmask etc)
6 - Brush (to brush on the liquid mask)
7 - Xacto Knife with spare blades (no 11 for starters)
8 - Sharpie type marker pen and motor spray to wipe pen off when designing
9 - Tracing paper to trace the design from one side to another (white baking paper works fine and cheaper)
10 - An object to paint i.e. Body shell

Not sure why we don't have sticky thread for newcomers ....

Is probably one of the most common questions in this section.

I just did a quick search for 'airbrush start' and various threads there, some different key words may bring up even more..
