Mikko,

Tamiya acrylic paints are not really made for brush painting.

Airbrushing gives good (even excellent) results if properly used (right air pressure, right
thinner ratio). Adding a bit of Tamiya clear to your paint also helps.

If you want to paint with a brush AND use Tamiya paints, why not try their range of Enamels;
Tamiya enamels are said to brush beautifully.

Cheers,
Christophe
