    basically each cat gets 15 different spray apps for a total of 1215 seperate airbrush apps. plus unpacking, cleaning, repacking..so its actually 1458 seperate actions to process the Kittehs. say 1 minute for each action thats 24.3 man hours. So..if these where made say in the factory with several people...I reckon it takes about 1 day to paint and process a small run.

    Those masks are awesome and I am sure make things a bit easier.

    In Chinese, the characters read "Every level".

    Not sure if the Japanese meaning is equivalent.
