Hi Tony.

I haven't any photo of the painting...., but I do this little "tutorial".

Hope this can help you!!!

Just imagine this white sheet of plastic is the Land Rover, a plane or why not.... a tiger for your next TC Productions...

The tools you need.

Paint the base with your wish colour.

Then cut and add a little "stripe" of blue-tac and press with the finger (to stick it).

With a "cutter" give the form you need, and cut little parts for a very realistic effect.

Paint the second or the last colour coat over the set.

Once dry you can clean, you don't have to worry for any kind of damage on your paint work, if you do with this tool.
