When it comes to painting fine lines, such as the markings on an aircraft carrier flight deck, my hands are way too shaky! My daughter found a wonderful solution for this problem at her college book store: Sharpie Paint Markers. They’re filled with either water- or oil-based paint and are available with four different tips ranging from fine to extra bold. The choice of colors is expansive, including black, silver, and even white. I’ve used them over Model Master enamels and find they work great and are easy for me to control. So, if you’re shaky like me, try one out. They cost around $3 each and are available at most office- and art-supply stores.
