Here's my first official pinstripe paint test. The object is the sawn-off end of a large plastic knitting needle. TS14 Gloss Black, apply the mask then a light spray of the unmasked pinstripe areas with Tamiya chrome silver to give the final pinstripe colors a base surface to "pop" off. The pinstripes were then sprayed with two Humbrol Rail Colors, matt red and orange. The match to the actual pinstripe colors is pretty good, straight out of the tin. Not sure about the quality of the paint and whether I should use Matt paint. Finally a coat of Tamiya Clear. It's an okay test. The best thing is there's no decal film to worry about.
