YesSSSSSsSSSSSSSsssSSSSSSSssSSS!!!!!!

That pair looks great! I cant believe how smooth it looks on such a large area. I love these.

Now you need to do a matching s.b. bee eraser, a honey bee, and a regular size bee. 8)

ps.s, my criticism can be partially voided due to the fact that i post more blurry shots than clear ones...

If you're talking about the mini, I use Pentel paint brushes.
If you're talking about the Deka,............Well it's not Vcolor, (too volatile) I own a condo, that's upstairs, & I paint in my loft. I use Createx airbrush paint. It's water based so my gas appliances won't set it off :roll: It comes in a variety of pearlized colors.
My gun is a Paasche TG-Talon, I love it.

No, this was the Red/Yellow/Black Deka, I just did a quick t-shirt wipe all over with acetone, just enough to give the paint something to stick to. Then as I always do, 3 to 4 coats of clear lacquer afterwards (I do that outside, and pray for no wind or flies.)

BTW Thanks for all the great comments, this was fun to do, & now just have to do the reg size.
