For the miniature brushes don't get any cheap synthetic brushes they are all garbage and last one or two sessions at best. You will save money in the long run just buying a kolinsky sable brush up front. They last forever when taken care of and are much better to use (and not that expensive in miniature brush sizes)

The miniature brush is kinda bullshit. It's better to buy brush for watercolor with bigger 'belly' but sharp tip. The belly holds water and paint, and you paint with the sharp tip. Minaiture brushes wear quickly and can't store water/paint in their structure so paint dries quicker even on the bristle, your painting time with one 'dip' is much shorter. The best I've tried so far are Raphael 8404 or 8408, but I've heard that Broken Toad and DaVinci have good brushes too. There are some cheaper synthetics too. Just don't get trapped into thinking 'I'm painting miniatures so I need mini brush for that'.

I've done a lot of miniatures, especially 25mm wargaming back in the day, and the really small brushes are great for picking out details, such as a catchlight in an eye, lips, that sort of thing. But always use the largest brush you can for any given area to avoid brushstrokes, and trips back to the paint bowel.

2 useful tips; don't get paint up into the metal part of the brush, its hard to clean and it builds up, clogging the bristles from the base up. And, never leave brushes standing in a 'water pot' this will definitely cause bending of the bristles which you will never straighten again.

Wipe as much paint as you can off in a paper towel, and then swirl the brush in the appropriate thinner, keeping it off the bottom of the container so you don't damage the tip. Using a clean white paper towel, repeat the process until no trace of color comes out. If I am doing a lot of painting, I use what some painters call the three can method. I have three bottles of thinner; the first is the dirtiest, the second, medium, and the third as clear as possible for the final rinse. I flick the brush several times to remove the clear thinner, and then use another clean paper towel to wick the last bit out. Let them air dry for a bit and then return to your storage, protecting the tip. As Bill, put the tip protector back on if you have one.

Try The Masters Brush Cleaner and Preserver. It's like a soap that you wipe the brushes in. I've used it for a number of years now and will quite happily remove acrylics, oils, cellulose-based paints and varnishes. It is skin friendly so it doesn't matter if you get any on your hands. As it is a preserver it will keep your brushes lasting for years too.

I use chip brushes to spread Creature Cast. Toss the brush. Don't try to clean out the liquid rubber. Flat brushes are my best friends. Cutting a flat brush closer to the base and mashing can create some good weathering effects in a controlled way. Makeup type stippling sponges can do wonderful things. Great to add rust or metal pitting effects. A makeup stippling sponge with some glossy modge podge makes great shiny bubbly effects, looks gooey and monstrous. I generally paint my projects with a brush because the textures create interesting highlighting and weathering effects.

Okay, mini painter here. Use the larger round brushes for 90% of the work. Only bother with a detail brush (that tiny little thing there at the end) for the very finest detail. As a general rule, use a larger brush than you expect.

Chip brushes are my go to brushes for large murals, and even lettering. If using the right paint, you can achieve a better clean edge than with almost any other brushes. I have even used chip brushes instead of trim brushes for room painting! Cheap, yet versatile!

Get an air brush. Then you can use model-car primers and only prime your model, not 3 feet on either side like a rattle can. You could even build a mini spray booth using a box fan and off the shelf heater filters.

thegingineer0 If you get an airbrush and small spray booth, there are a lot of good options. Alclad’s primer is a great one. Vallejo has a primer, and Badger has one as well. I’ve used all three on various plastics, urethane resin, 3D prints, (Resin and PLA) styrene, PETG, etc. All work very well. My favorite is probably the Alclad one though because it behaves very similarly to duplicolor rattle can primer.

I like using Valspar paint with primer, or just primer. I paint on with a brush. The key is to use a flexible sanding sponge after the paint cures. It doesn't take much muscle or time to get a really smooth primer finish this way. Though, you will lose some fine detail.

Its Simple, For plastic, use plastic cement For resin, super glue or Epoxy Vinyl, you need to use special vinyl glue Remember that using the wrong type can lead to melting, so if you have glue, like gorrila glue etc.. That your not sure about, don't use it! Stick to the basics!
