Hi guys,

I'm trying to paint my Tau Devilfish, but not having a lot of luck if I'm honest. I'm trying to go for a clean white look, with black lines at the edges of the plates (if you've seen a devilfish you'll know the lines I mean). I tried a test area by spraying white and then trying to paint the black straight, but my shaky hand got the better of me, I then tried inking the ridges and then cleaning up the overlap, but that ruined the clean white finish. I'm think about attempting to undercoat black, mask the lines and then overcoat with white. Does this sound like a good idea? Any one else have any tips that might help me out?

Sorry about the bad picture, but these lines are what I'm trying to go for:
