a) good choice, I have one too, hasn't let me down. I also have two Badgers. but for detail work I use the H&S.

b) Depends what you're going to use it for, but with a fine and medium nozzle you can do 99%of the job.

c) practice, practice, practice. Get some plastic cups, boards,... whatever you can get your hands on. Get some paint and thinner a try out different combinations of paint and thinner. Exercise to paint different lines, shapes. Then once you've got the hang of it start on your models.
