Estes Saturn V #1969 Build, Part 40, Lower Body Outlines

TIP: At the top of the fairings I used the flat back of a single edge razor blade for a small straightedge. Masking tape was doubled over the sharp blade edge.
The ultra fine point Sharpie was used for the line down the middle top of the fairing.

Keep the lines on the body tube thin! See the EDIT below.

The ultra fine point Sharpie was used down the root edge of the fin joint. Do this only if you have a smooth fillet.
Notice I only went down as far as the silver border to be sprayed later.

Here's the bottom on the left and the top on the right, ready for masking and spraying of the black in the next post.
The width on the left is what you are going for, even a little thinner. The borders on the right side are too wide.

EDIT: I learned not to do a wide Sharpie line on the body tube areas. Even after a flat clear coat on smooth surfaces, the pen lines will show up next to the sprayed areas. The corrugations hide the Sharpie pen outlines well - but not on the smooth body tube!

Be ready:
Masking a Saturn V is time consuming and can be frustrating. Take a deep breath and slow down. You might want to mask this one when the kids are out of the room.
