Ahhhh, now these came out stellar compared to my last atrocities. I used an airbrush on these!! I think if I'm going to paint these, it's going to be with an airbrush. I may have to do multiple layers of paint... But it's so easy to work with! Doesn't bridge the gap between cuts when you apply this stuff so it makes removing and placing the painted parts a lot easier. It's also just fun to use the airbrush. I do find the monotonous action of removing and placing individual parts tedious though... I'm going to use my 3d printer to hopefully solve that soon so I don't have to spend 5 -20 minutes assembling each pair of coasters. Automation is LIFE
