Oh, the line end is scraped away to give it a finished edge. Part two after laying down the line in the previous post. Got it.

Still requires practice and a steady hand.

Using capillary action you pick up the paint. After dipping you wipe excess off, then apply it. How is it not creating a blob as you apply it. This method of course requires much practice just like air brushing.

And that, boys and girls, is how you eventually get to Carnegie Hall.

Interesting, that you apply the markings after weathering.I always argued with myself whether it's better to apply markings on a clean model and to include them in the weathering process, wihich belnds them with the overall look but makes them less visible, or to apply them before the final clear coat, Your thoughts?

Weathering is chaos. Markings are studied, understood, precise operations. Get the chaos out of the way first, protect it with a clear coat, and only then apply the markings. Touch up the markings to match surrounding chaos, then another, well flattened clear coat to blend everything together.
