| As far as raised lines, you can use makeup pencils (easy fellas, I'm married - they belong to her, I swear). Typically they are a darker color and when sharpened, go on very well on top of a dull coat.
Re-scribing can be a lengthy process, but in my opinion greatly enhances the quality of the end-product. What I'll typically do is start the scribing process early, say while I'm building a cockpit or something. While I wait for parts to dry, or for a few minutes after each building session I can scribe a bit. As long as you have all the research done, the old lines removed, and the lines already drawn on the model, this is much easier and I find it reduces the feeling of an arduous process.
After assembly, of course, I typically need to rescribe sections of lines where I sanded or puttied, but this pales in comparison to waiting for the whole model to be done.
PS - match up fuselage halves and wing halves before scribing lines that go all-the way around, this way you don't end up with mis-matched lines. |
