I needed a way to paint some matching wheels for Project Axis, and I came up with this.
First, gather materials:
---Paint
---Airbrush [or rattlecan]
---Wheels
---Highlighter/Expo Marker
Now, cut off the bottom of the marker. If the marker is too small, add some tape until the lip of the wheel is the only thing showing.
Next, shoot your base color, in my case, gunmetal:
Finally, put your marker on the wheel, taking care to center it. Shoot the lip color, in my case, yellow.
And that's it!
