All you will need are 3 things.

1. fine sharpie(to draw on the body)
2. Tamiya yellow masking tape(translucent and can see your drawing through the other side
3. x-acto knife.

Directions:

1.Draw the graphic on teh outside of the body

2.lay Tamiya tape inside of the body where you are gonna have your graphic painted

3.cut the graphic out with your x-acto knife

3.peel unwanted tape

4.spray desired color for base

5.peel tape of graphic

6.spray desired color of graphic.

7.Finish!
