And you will find some not great stuff too! But everything really has been covered at least once, if not 100 times.

Airbrushing can be a great money maker, but it takes some practice and I like to say its an "art" so anyone can do it, but not everyone can do it well. The compressor you need can be almost anything, but nothing too big is needed at all.

Also for the airbrushes you may want o have two. One for the fine stuff, like around the face, I call those artisan airbrushes. Then another larger volume one for covering larger areas. Plus by using two brushes you give more of an "experience" than a paint job. Some compressors come with two hookups with separate pressure regulators just for this!
