I saw it on YouTube and liked it, so I made the letters gold colored. I like it so I guess that's all that matters.

That's some super-fine detailing. How did you go about it?

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

There are scads of you tube videos showing how to do it...most are using nail polish. I used some ancient (like 50 year old ) model car paint I had...still good....imagine that,! There is enough left in the tiny bottle to redo it fifty times if I felt like it..he he he he
