thanks.
IMO, airbrush should be used for the little details and spray paint can gets the job done quicker, and for larger painting surfaces.

What I think you should do is spray paint(Can) the the base all in OD Green, than cut out many stencils for the black second coat (Airbrush) . Lastly, cut out smaller shaped pixels for the thid coat of the Darkish tan colour (Airbrush).
If you want your gun to be Cadpat at it's best, try looking at Issued Cadpat, or if you have any Cadpat BDUs, use the same exact shapes and sizes and the patterns used in the BDU.

Have fun!
