Default Really cheap airbrush setup question...REALLY CHEAP

OK, so I want to go airbrush route..however I want to see just how cheap I can do it.

I would want to source an Airbrush that is at least reasonable at controling a spray, but doesnt have to do pin lines etc...ideally just for light shadowing etc.

Airsource is going to be something like a Car Tyre...no compressors etc.

Anyone got any ideas on sourcing the airbrush, what other bits are needed (something I guess to connect the airline to a tyre's valve etc)

Really appreciate constructive replies loads

cheers

John

I have a Basic Compressor & Airbrush setup that I was going to stick on here at some point this week.

I can send you some details if needed?

Cheers guys but no compressor...want to try and get this setup for under £30...so spare tyre with 20p of air in it will feed the airbrush.

Want to do this on a seriously low budget

How about this for you...

I've got a diaphragm compressor, A brand new Double-Action brush (Gravity Fed) Its un-branded, But works well. (I bought 4 of them to save time between colours) and a hose.

You can have that setup for £40?
