You nay want to go gray base and do black and white add ons. to avoid having to paint white over black which can take several coats.
Some people use stencils. I personally prefer to hand paint all of my cammo. I do not LIKE doing it (long and tedious) but am always happy with the results.

Actually, I like the paint application of a stencil better, The coverage is more uniform, plus the pattern can be overlapped better. It looks more realistic as well.

I'm not sure if I'll ever use brush on paint. One of the perks for me in doing vehicles is the spacious canvas (perfect for spray-on), although I've spruced up some figures as well that had colors that didn't do it for me using the aide of masking tape, an exacto knife, and lots-o-lots of patience. The rattle can provides me with an airbrush look that I'm pretty keen on as well. The down side?-no weather/wash effects, bummer.

I hand brush all my vehicles, use the stencil first, then drybrush the edges, it would make a huge difference, try it on your next one.
