Well guys,
I colored and weathered my streets with paint and chalks and then discovered my old method of striping with automotive pinstriping tape wouldn't stick to the chalk. Sooo, this time around, I tried paint pens. After striping several streets, I finally decided I was not happy with the results. I couldn't get the paint pens to keep a constant width, steady flow, smooth curves, steady consistency, yada, yada, yada. I tried a couple other things to fix the problem and that just made it worse. Sooooooo, I sanded it all back down to bare plaster and I'm going to try again... 'Cept this time, I'm going to use colored pencils for the road striping.
