Heres what I just typed out for someone else, I will paste a copy here.
----------
Try a brush with shorter stubbier bristles, maybe cut a normal brush way down. Try to leave the center brisstles a bit longer than the outer ones, so its kinda cone-shaped. Put just a dab of paint on your brush. I keep a folded up newspaper to work on, and I always rub the brush on the paper first, to spread the paint on the bristles and get rid of the excess. Not dry-brushing, but certainly not a "wet" brush. Then use dabbing and wiggling motions to put your camo on. Different pressure, and diff motions and you can get several widths of camo from that 1 brush if its a good one.
You can highlight right over the camo when doing your final dry-brushing. If you dont do that, then you can still highlight your camo by using a dry-brushing of about 2 shades lighter of the camo color.
For a 2-tone effect, dab another color onto your camo spots, slightly lighter, and centered within each camo spot. Make sure to use a slight rubbing or wiggling with the brush so you dont leave thick edges on your spots.
Most important: Dont use too much paint, ever, when doing camo. I keep my brush fairly "goey" while doing it. Just before you put the camo on the vehicle, touch it to newspaper. If it leaves a spot with smooth edges, your brush is too wet - rub some back into the bottle and wipe on paper. If your brush leaves a scuff-mark of paint on the paper, its just right to apply. After each spot, add just a tiny dab of paint to your brush and touch it to newspaper again. As soon as your brush gets to sticky, you will have to rinse it and grab another brush or stop and wait until that brush is dry. NEVER apply camo with a brush that is moist from cleaning, unless your doing white-wash camo.

ive done models before i started re-painting my AAM. it helps if you kiind of get used to what you want to do before you paint your miniatures. so my point is if you have a model airplane/tank ect try that out or just practice on a peice of cardboard just to get used to it

For 'normal' camo patterns (multi color spots with smooth edges) like my King Tiger (http://boards.avalonhill.com/showthread.php?t=9787) I paint the entire model in my base color (desert yellow in this case) and then carfully apply the other colors over it, keeping the edges of each color smooth and rounded. It's pretty easy and all it requiers is a steady hand and a good brush. For 'white-wash' winter camo I apply the base color(s) and then use a fine sponge (like the kind used for make-up application) to dab white paint over it.
