I work as an industrial maintenance tech and we have air compressors up to 350 horsepower. I however do not have any experience with air brushes , but do have some with automotive painting. Most of what we as modelers/ homeowners will be doing can be more than well done using a small compressor from Wal-mart/lowe's/ homedepot. You can buy oil/water seperators and pressure regulators at most any big box or auto parts store. I am in the building /planning stage of my layout, and have a 3 horsepower compressor from lowes with a 15 gallon tank that will power my airbrush when the time comes, and if water or oil become a problem i'll get a filter/seperator at that time. It doesn't have to be fancy it just has to work for me. I guess what my long winded speech is saying is for my money get something universal, you'll never regret having more air than you need as you will find more ways to use it in the long run.
