Hey guys, been posting on the site and getting alot of needed help. As some may know I am new to this modelling/craft of building, painting etc. I just completed my first german Tiger 1 late production. I am starting on my second tank and have hit a problem. Since money is tight, I do all the painting with paint brushed. But I messed up the camo on the tiger and am afraid to do the same to this tank. I have seen some tips on using tack and such for airbrushing. BUT, is there any tips or ideas you guys use when painting GOOD camo lines using a paint brush?
Any help will be appreciated again.

I used an ordinary pencil.
As stated in another thread, you must go lightly with it.
