Spray paint. Just use your imagination. You could use markers if you wanted, but I doubt it would turn out good

I might be a little late to this party, but maybe this will help.

Make sure you sand the body before you paint, and wash it with water and you can even use dish soap to help wash and get the oils off.. just make sure you rinse it off really really well, and let it air dry for quite a while to make sure it's dry. Only pat it dry, don't rub it a lot with a towel or something else as you could get stuff on the body.. air dry is the best and don't touch the surface you will paint with your bare hands.

When painting with a spray can, do VERY light coats, spraying atleast 6-8 inches away from the body.. start with a primer, move onto your base coat, and then clear coat.

That's a very simple method to get a nice paint job, if you want a stunning paint job you will need lots of practice and get in contact with Lancer Man or Bondo.. they are paint masters.
