I've had pretty good luck with so-called static dusters ("as seen on late-
night TV", at least a few years ago. ;)  You can pick these up at K-Mart/
Target/Wal-Mart etc.  They are similar to a feather duster except they're
made with fine plastic filaments that can hold a static charge, and hence
"grab" the dust them come in contact with.  It may sound questionable, but
I've been very happy with mine - it has cleaned many a dusty brick over
several years.

You're never going to get into the tightest corners with it, but it'll get
to most of a built model.
