How to paint those minute details?

It\'s not so much Brush control as paint control and patience...Any brush with a goo point will work I rarely use smaller than a 0 as I prefer to hold moisture in the brush..It\'s simply practise and getting the right amount of paint on the brush...If ou only have say 1mm of paint on the bristles then you will paint 1 mm..If you put 5 or 6 mm on the same brush you will paint between 1 and 5-6 mm.. so the more control you have of the amount of paint the better.

load brushes vertically dipping the point into the paint from above rather than sliding in for tiny details same with the application go straight from above rather than an angle..
Make sense???
It\'s also a good idea to make sure you can rest your wrist against something solid to minimise shake...

Thanks for all the replies, been very helpful. I think demonherald (yes it makes sense ;) ) has hit it on the head now, I just need to practice with paint control, well, from what I can tell. :D

Will let this thread slide down the list now, thanks again.
