Stripes

Posted in Custom Workstation

Hey Realmers, What is the best/most durable way to paint/apply stripes? I'm working on a custom and his torso has stripes similar to Cap. America and I know my hands aren't steady enough to paint freehand so I was wondering about Sculpt? Vinyl? Just want to make sure it wont scrape or peel off when handling.
Thanks in advance!

Paint some tape, cut it to shape, easy.

Or use the tape as a stencil.

Sculpting makes them easier to paint too
