Take book and repeatedly pommel yourself over the head with it until comatose, repeat as necessary until the thought leaves your mind.
You think statues and original are a slippery slope!! Pfft ... you have no idea what you're getting yourself into now!!

Lol, agreed, Airbrushing is a VERY slippery slope!, it's expensive, time consuming and fiddley.
That said....
If you wanting to airbrush I would get myself a decent compressor, prefferably a silent one as the constant buzzing of a compressor can be really off putting, especialy if your doing it indoors. You can get small cans of compressed air to run an airbrush, however these are expensive and run out really quickly (More so if you just learning).
What brush you get depends on how fine a detail you want to get into.
A single action brush will allow you to control the amount of paint coming out of the gun.
A double action brush will alow you to control the amount of paint and air coming out of the gun (these will give you greater control and allow for finer lines)
What brush you choose is a personal choice, there are loads to choose from, personaly I use a dual action Iwata brush.
