Well done. As to the triangle, if you want to paint that too with that pen, you could trim the nib of the pen with a razor to a finer point, and try and fill in the areas that way.

Ah , ok , so try with a little pencil for the models. The name is 000 ans you can paint good all the micro parts. I use it for the tank models....

Yes , it's amazing this bezel.....! :cheers:

That colour is damn close, nice work.
You will find any of the excess that is on the black will come off real easy with a fingernail.

That's awesome! What source for the marker, though? I've Googled it and cannot find the exact same one...

I was looking for the brand "Simbalion" then I saw a exact copy of it with the same wording and colors and bought it instead.

Did you paint this over the original paint or remove the original bezel paint first?

Painted over the original. Then wipe the excess with a wet tissue paper around 10 mins after.

Thanks, Very cool!

I was thinking Pilot Paint Markers last week, the ones you have to shake before using. I just redid my cheapie SubC bezel paint with acrylic paint that need to be sealed. If it wears off quickly I'll try the marker method for next touch up!

I have been trying this for the past 3 days and no luck... I wasn't able to get that pen but got other sliver maker... The first time was ok but every time I was taking the excess off the insert it was coming off the numbers as well, so I would redo but then would not look right. I done this for about 4 or 5 times, each time letting it dry for longer each time but again just didn't look good. I have now taking off all the colour off the insert and just thinking what to do next, try to found that maker pen or try something different? Here is some photos...

Hi stevejones... I first used a cloth that comes with sunglasses wrapped around a sharp picker to take off the excess carefully but kept slipping and then a dry tissue but not a wet one.... But I was thinking if the colour of the maker I have is right as well?
