**Prep is Key**: Start by cleaning the model with soap and water to remove any oils. Then, lightly sand the surface to help the paint stick better. Use a primer specifically designed for plastic before applying your paint.

**Use Spray Paint**: Spray paint can give you a smooth finish. Make sure to do it in a well-ventilated area and apply thin, even coats. Don’t rush it! Let each layer dry before adding more.

**Airbrush for Precision**: If you have an airbrush, it’s a great way to get a professional look. It allows for fine details and smooth gradients. Just remember to thin your paint properly for the best results.

**Brush On for Detail Work**: For smaller parts or intricate details, a fine brush can work wonders. Use acrylic paints and take your time. It’s all about layering those colors to get the depth you want.
