I use brushes for the finer detail work because I want my kits to look good, and I have better control (for now) using brushes. And even when you've mastered the airbrush, it's not like you won't use brushes, quite the opposite in fact.
gottcha. thanks.

Next time you go to Walmart, Toys R Us or Target ... get a few eggs of Silly Putty ... it's quick easy and WAY more pliable than any tape.
