I would HIGHLY recommend that you "police" your brushes to make sure they are in top-notch condition! Lost many brushes because I never took care of them.
Very obvious suggestion, but I felt it needed to be said.
In the beginning I used a brush but when I tried a spray can job, the overall look was so much better I only use brush for small details now. I use my airbrush on some things but I find the spray cans do a really good job too and they don't need cleaning. I spend more time cleaning my airbrush than I do painting with it.
