Hi this is Aaron I'm back on behalf of Expert Village. In the last segment you saw me using my brush it was not working to well and I just learned a new secret it is call the stabilo pencil. Man this is going to make this go a lot quicker. I don't have to keep dipping my paint brush into the black paint, it uses a nice fine black detail, not to much the paint which I was using was a little to dark. This pencil is actually even nice little pores holes, it is not a solid black line you know and as you know wood is not solid it is full of little tiny pores all over the place. So this is actually looking pretty real. And it is going a lot quicker, I don't have to redip it in the paint, I don't have to worry about it drying up on the brush. The good thing about this is if you screw up you can usually wipe it off usually. Probably take some soap and water. But basically go over all your lines, make up a few here and there. Go with the flow baby. What I would probably do maybe in the next segment I will go back to my black brush and just do a few lines here and there just to give it a little bit darker contrast. I would do this for a little bit and we would see what the next one does. Stay tune to our next segment who knows what we are going to do.
