Those look fantastic. That's an interesting technique. I have an airbrush I've never used. I should try it out next summer.

An airbrush! I was wondering how you didn't get any brush strokes with that type of paint. Excellent  :)9

Gaston, just one doubt: how does the paint hold up to handling or putting items in the klicky's hand?
Cheers!

well... I guess it holds better if you give it a coat of transparent barnish or somehting like that. I haven't tried it. All I have painted is not for playing.... just display or light handling for photostories. For that it holds ok.

I ask because I once tried a chrome spray paint that looks terrific, but doesn't hold up very well.
Cheers!
