I read someone used a pencil eraser. To make the dots.

Heard that too. A hole punch and masking tape could work. Paint the colour you want the dots first, mask over, spray the main colour. There's quite a few ways to paint hinterhalt/ambush schemes. I think Archer even do templates.

A Q-tip or makeup applicator can be used but its a bit over scale, a good brush is best.

Hi,

Once you have the base coats down. You can punch holes in a card using a random pattern, then spray through it. A little practice and you'll look great, it will give you a nice soft edge to the dots as well.

Hope this helps
