Both ADDAX and Teleman's are great suggestions.
My suggestion is NOT to try and hold them individually with tweezers while painting. Seems like a good idea, BUT IT'S NOT! OK?
They can fly off and either get covered in fluff or eaten by the dog/cat.

IF YOU CAN'T FIX IT WITH A HAMMER, YOU'VE GOT AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM

I have always used a piece of plasticine rolled in to a sausage to fix any thing that needs painting to. it allows you to pick up and check detail and put a fresh piece on when its dry and you dont have to find a fresh bit of plasticine out. Ive built all sorts of models using this method.
