I use spraycans (automotive, generally, unless exact colours are required) for the body and airbrush everything else; brushing anything difficult to mask or reach with the airbrush.

Regards
Mark

Really? No way. Even for small details? You must be joking. Surely you brushpaint some things. Surely.
