Black outline on traps

Hi Ben,

Personally, I use Satin black for mine for a slightly aged look. Here’s the process I use;

That’s part of a full series of helmet building and painting videos so I hope they help. :-)

For any troublesome/wobbly areas you could go over with a fin permanent marker

I appreciate you taking the time to make these vids. I watched the series and grabbed the last Testor’s color I needed today as well as some brushes from Hobby Lobby. I’ve learned a lot and can’t wait for my kit to arrive to try these techniques.

A pleasure, trooper. I’m really pleased that they are helpful. :-)
