I was in the same boat as you. This is all the stuff I bought: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0067BAYNO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001738DXU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00KS1II96/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003TJA0SQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1,https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004BN5RUU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 .
I also bought an assortment of paints I thought I'd need. I went with the Vallejo Game Air line. If you look around, you'll see the stuff I bought recommended by many people for novice airbrushers.
Also, when I bought all that stuff, I signed up for the Amazon Prime credit card as well, so I ended up getting like $120 off that order. It worked out pretty well.
I'm to lazy to type any of this from a past post so here is a copy paste
here is my set up. nothing to complain about. and the badger 105 is a great starter. its use of good machining means it only has one o-ring and its dead simple to clean.

then you will need cleaning supplies such as

I'm pretty happy with the quality of everything and it makes painting a base coat of pure white or yellow super simple. also makes painting a color shift or pattern very easy. if you have the cash i would highly recommend it
Thanks for the information! I never considered that the Iwata Ninja will pulse air as there is no collection tank.

I thought of getting this cleaning kit and this cleaning solution.
Make sure you buy a hose if you buy a compressor without one (eg. if you buy used).
You will want to buy a respirator.
You can also jump-start his accessories list by including some cleaning supplies (spray-out pot, airbrush cleaner), as well as some paints/primer/topcoat (tamiya, mr color, vallejo, alclad ii, etc.).
I believe this can all be done with a budget of 300$ (assuming US). At this point, he could start spraying that day if he wanted.
EDIT: I use this Master Airbrush Compressor and the Iwata HP-CS airbrush. I've been happy with them so far, but I do wish I spent a little more on a compressor with a tank (as /u/7x13 recommends).
My bottle of Vallejo cleaner lasted about a year with a lot of spraying. What you should do is buy a gallon jug of distilled water to flush the airbush then put in the cleaner and run it through. Putting your airbrush in a ultrasonic cleaner after every use is a waste of time and it really doesn't clean it any better then you could by actually doing it. Just buy this big bottle I've linked to and unless you're a pro modeler you will not run out in a year.

That will work. I don't use a ultrasonic bath for mine.
