Question windows lining and rubber lining

hey guys I was wondering, how do you do your windows? like when you paint the inside, like the black lining, how do u curve and get them so nice? Other question, about the rubber lining on the extereior of the car, the black lines, how do u guys do them? I use a small brush that you can buy, but then once you use u throw away, but sometimes it takes a steady hand, but how do you guys do it? Those are the two things im most NOT good at... any tips at all would be great!

Most of the interior window painting is done with window masks provided in the kit, Tamiya, Hasegawa and the like. These are precut pieces of masking tape. As far as painting the exterior bits of window trim and such, I use a small brush and a steady hand. I have seen other people masking these areas off and airbrushing them.

Welcome

And try using the search button // quick search at the top right side of your screen. then search for Panel Lines and Painting Window Frames
That should do the trick

Just a quick question here for those who have the Tamiya Supra-- that kit doesn't come with a 'window mask' does it? It's my first tamiya kit and I'm not sure if mine is missing it or not.
