Teaching myself to pinstripe.......
After years of watching mates do it, I thought it was about time I had a go myself.
I mate donated a dagger brush, I bought some enamels and heres the results......
My first attempt, its pretty random, just trying to get used to the brush............

My second attept, has a lot more form to it........

It'll be a while before I put brush to car, but as I always say "you only improve as you get better":P
Thanks for looking,
Rhettro.

That looks great!
Pity I'm not down your way, I'd be more than happy for you to cut sick with the brush on my car! :thumb
Look forward to seeing some more of your work.

Rhett, you can practice on my new bootlid if you like, will make for a nice conversation piece. You seem to be picking it up pretty quick man.
P.S. I can see your undies on the clothes horse.
