I have a finish line 3, they work well and they are cost effective.

get a gravity fed gun but also you need to get l a filter on your compressor to filter out all the water that goes to your gun via air line which can and will severly damage your gun. the only reason i say this is because most amateur painters over see theis potential hazard

What about where to paint? What are the bare environment qualities you would want fora nice job? Any advice for attempting this in a garage? fans? heater? Is it easy to rig up a booth?
