beautiful – nice one terry. Thats what i would like to see as a step by step demo.
such fine lines and no shakes – definately not one for a saturday morning hangover!
seriously but – how do you start – do you do one side and then mirror the other?
what kind of paint and brushes?
where can you get examples of this kind of work?

hang in there.. itll come and when i does youll feel like a dog with two d…..er bonesPull a line ,dont have to be long then try the same next to it and gradually
build up a pattern and when youve got something -rub it out and do it again.. more practice
The more lines that look like they should be there the more your confidence will grow , all it costs is patience
The article by Steve Robinson is in May June 2002

Yet again a brilliant piece of work
Only piece of pinstriping I did was on two four wheel drives and a brand new jag using pinstriping tape. (not quite the same I know)
They were accident insurance jobs and the customers insisted (:) (:) that the lines had to be painted on and absolutely no vinyl
