What is your budget? To some, $20 is expensive, while to others $200 is cheap.

Unfortunately I'm in the first group these days...

I just got a Pasche single action kit at Hobby Lobby for $47. I used one of their 40% off coupons. So far I really like it. It has been easy to learn on.

I use a Paasche VL and really like it. Got it here:http://www.coastairbrush.com/proddetail.asp?prod=VLSET
Great airbrush for the money.I didn't know how to use a dual action when I bought it but I got used to it real fast.

dont be afraid of a dual action, they are actually easyer to use!

with the single action you get one shot, press it down and it sprays like a can...

the dual action you press down the trigger to activate the air and then just pull back for the amount of paint you want

much much much more controlable
