1. Use a toothpick for fine details, cut the end so you have an angle instead of a point. a point can be very helpful for eyes though

2. sandpaper the shoulders on the arms, just leave the parts that goes into the body alone as that's what keeps the arm tight. this well keep layers of paint on your arms from rubbing off while moving the arm

3. Flat paints are great primers for softer plastic

That's all I have for now, here's my customs if you want to see what I've done with these tips:
