Artists oil paints are a blessing for this job, a small dot of oil paint is added to the top of where you want a run to start. A clean brush that has been dampened with artists white spirit is then used to drag the dot of paint down to create a nice streak. The shape and length of the streak can then be adjusted by cleaning the brush off and repeating the process.
A final coat of flat was added to the glossy decalled areas and I'm going to call this one done.

awesome work buddy. This HG mobile suit is one of the more difficult ones to do since its much older in regards to production timeline. Great job. Hope to see more. Some of the newer HGUC kits are very good in quality and more paint friendly with seams engineered at easier removal points.
