Hey Skyhawk007,

I have also used the chartpak tape and i was happy with the effect. I would recommend that you use the 1/64" tape, which is the smallest you can get because even at 1/64 or .4mm They are a huge gap in terms of panel lines as compared to the full sized a/c

Another techinque is to use the blunt side os the knife to score the surface. to you start my marking out all the panel lines on the surface, and then gently use the sharp side of the knfe to score a groove onto the surface. then you can either run the knife along he groove a few times or turn the knife over and use the blunt side for a slightly thinker groove.

Where about in briss-vegas are you from?

thanks
