Thiefyzheng, like Elliott said, acrylic brush-on paint is good for small details (for example, the white grips on Elliott's Snipe, although I think those are separate pieces that he probably just spray painted, but it's just an example).

But painting the whole blaster with a brush is just like painting your backyard deck black with a Sharpie. Just stick with some spray paint (Krylon Fusion works well in my experience) and use the acrylic paint for later details, such as letters, stripes, etc.
