Richard Prager Posted January 14, 2017 Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 You can use airbrush paint and a calligraphy pen under the clear coat 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gliders Posted January 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2017 Richard, what sort of calligraphy pen would you recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobP Posted January 15, 2017 Report Share Posted January 15, 2017 I just went to my local hobby shop and bought the cheapest calligraphy pen they had, which was a plastic stick with a couple of fine point nibs. It has lasted more than 10 yrs and couldn't have cost more than a couple of bucks. Dip it in Createx black and you're in business. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
