Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: how much are the airbrushes and compressors usually? Im just looking for an airbrush to paint on canvas.

A 'gravity feed' (has a little cup for the paint on the top of the airbrush) airbrush will run you around $100-$150 for a decent one...about the same for siphon feeds (where the bottle of paint attached to the bottom of the airbrush)
Compressors run the gammet! Anywhere from $150 to $500

Painting on canvas isn't the usual media for these instruments as your canvas texture will be a distractant.

check out Dixieart.com they usually have good deals and I personally reccommend Iwata brand!!

Hi
How are you?
The price for a compressor starts from $60 to over $1000
and for what you need you can get the $60 to $100 from any Home depot but you have to make sure that it has a moisture trap and a regulator and know how to adjust your presser not more than 35 PSI chick out the first link
For the airbrush it self you better of buying a good airbrush so you can get quality work the second link has the 2007 airbrush guide please remember to get the double action airbrush
I hope that will answer your questions
