Now I'm going to paint the fuse using the same technique as the wings.

Next were going to make our own stencil letters. First I downloded the font from the pro bro web site and printed it to my desired size. I rolled out my 5 buc a roll contact paper and taped down the letters. (New Blade) I cut the out line of the letters and put them aside. next were gong to start the back of the wing.

Now lay your letter and smooth out the contact paper. Leave no bubbles and rub the edge of the letters down I'm going to add a little curve to the back wing and some checks and then layer my flames then I will remove the stencil and outline the letters in black

Re: Airbrush start to finish

Dude this is great!!! I will be putting your training to the test. I am a virgin to airbrushing and I have wanted to try this since I am bored with the tradition looking fomie stickers. I will try it for the first time on a new DW Fomie Yak I just picked up. Look for my post with the results and pics when it is completed.
