+1 on the one shot. I used a very fine modeling brush when I did the one bike I did. Of course I also used to paint details on the dashboards of model cars I would build, hehe. The easy way to steady the brushing hand is to rest your pinkie and possibly the second finger against the frame, and use them as a pivot. Make sure the main color is well cured, and keep some mineral spirits handy to clean up any mistakes. I've never been a big fan of paint pens. They always seem to run dry, and then go on too heavily at the wrong moments.,,,,BD
