    What scale are you working to? If it is large scale you could add some masking tape or solution around the raised panel line and then paint or dry-brush. My 1/144 scale Heinkel had just a very light metallic wash dry-brushed over the areas. You can also use a sponge method as this is more sturdy than a brush add the paint to a centre line on the sponge and then carefully draw across the panel line. These are methods that have worked for me, others will have different methods.

      Phiko as useless piece of information at this stage as could possibly be but ,the answer as far as I am concerned, never buy a raised panel aircraft.

        You can run a pin wash along raised detail much as you can run one in recessed detail.

          I'm doing the 1/72 scale of A-10 Warthog. I've tried the drybrush with pastel powder, then tried with oil based wash, no luck whatsoever. I bought hasegawa kit, i thought it's a new model but it's an old one. tamiya is still my favourite.
