Default Help

Ok I would go to Kragen/ Shucks Auto part stores and ask for pinstriping. Then if you get some, put your stripes infront of a hairdrier to make them curve. For the terminal, yes. All you have to do is use the paint bucket. Choose your color and apply.

Hope this helps,

Alpha

What I did for my lines is I used a paint marker and a French Curve (A rubber tool to make perfect curves) which you can get at an art store. It's really a bendy ruler. It makes your lines perfect!

Get the Feb edition of Flying and they'll have the correct layout of lines.

I used modeling stripe, and I used a hair drier to keep the curve, so i was able to custom curve.

Plus its cheap!
