Chuck, i've got a great video/DVD, (one or the other) by Dave Whitlock where he demos that very thing. Seems he does everything with a nail, or some "tool" like that. I haven't watched it in a while. I just buy them already painted. There's so many color combination you can just buy them in, who needs to be spendin' time paintin' 'em? Not to mention buyin' the eyes, AND the paint. Hello! mark.....
