schmuckduck- very nice paint job.  How did you keep the trades visible?  And I think you need more tan in it.

You can use a white crayon.
By scribbling the white crayon onto the trades and wiping it clean with a  hot cloth, it will give you that "white trades effect."

You can also use White Out, however, this method is VERY hard to get right.

Or just white acrylic paint and then saliva fingers or a wet eraser.

I used white craft paint, and I just wiped it off.  It left no residue, except where I wanted it.

Thanks, I kept the trades visable by painting in layers. First, I taped the areas I wanted to stay black which also contained the trades. Then, I painted green. Added more tape to get the design I wanted and finished off with brown. Gun was to brown after first coat of paint went on, so I had to mist the whole gun with a final layer of green. It could use a bit more tan I agree.  Still a work in progress. Im sure I will be touching it up from time to time.

Artsy Fartsy  :shock:

Nice kit, but now I can add two more things to my list to never touch again.  Plus good luck trying to sell it, that is if you ever wanted to.  :lol:

Ah, but you got to love the pad, all 10x5 ft of it  8)
