You can: Constantly change colors, adjust from fan (< ) to pencil tip ( --- ), and work in very small detail when needed.

Well, I own 4 airbrushes / spray-guns:
With an airbrush, you can paint finer lines, control the AMOUNT of paint, and use small amounts of paint... It is easier to control the application (though I HAVE seen a few folks who are spray-paint wizards).
With an airbrush you can paint using acrylics, latex, dyes, and other materials not normally available in spray-cans.
With an airbrush, you can mix your OWN shades and tints !!
I have one compressor in my model-shop... and can switch brushes by just changing hoses... and then paint a project MUCH more quickly. 3 airbrushes and one spray-gun for priming and large areas

Air brush is so much easier to control - both the amount of air and the amount of paint being released
Airbrushes don't run out like cans do - and they are more earth friendly
Greater control and more delicate artwork can be achieved with the airbrush

airbrushes you can change the size and shape of the nozzle opening, and you can change the pressure behind the paint

It's a lot easier on your hands, for one thing. And you're not killing the Earth with aerosol propellants.
Plus, fabric dye doesn't come in aerosol cans.
