Just an idea, I tend to always use an old can of car spray, put a blob of blue tack on the top and press the models roof interior onto it, you can blue tack things like bonnets etc to the side of the can, this ensures all parts to be pained get done at the same time so you dont get variations in shade. Using this method sometimes gives the appearance that you have a circular shade difference over where the blue tack is but this usually dissapears when fully dry, not always but 99% of the time, depends what paint your using.

I use a big sponge with sections of cut coat hanger pushed into itat an angle so that the tension holds the model. If I am painting smaller pieces I tape them to toothpicks and push them into the sponge.

Looks like this

This is what i use here.
A sold block of wood for weight, then wire bent to the shape shown.
I then just tape the model to the wire.Just make sure you replace the tape after every model and you will never have one fall off.
