Here's my progress on the back so far. This was done freehand as I have not cut out any stencils for the right side of the back of the helmet. This is about 8 hrs. worth of painting...as you can see...it goes pretty slow.

Oh, yeah...Regarding the use of Miracle Whip as a painting mask...you have to be very careful when removing it, or it can cause the paint that is on top of it to smear across what you have already painted. I received an e-mail today from a boardmember who had this problem. So In my opinion, I would use a liquid mask that is designed specifically for painting. This was just an experimental technique that I was trying and have had a fair amount of success with. Sorry if I mislead anyone.

[QUOTE="AFettFullofDollars, post: 70526, member: 419"] Here's my progress on the back so far. This was done freehand as I have not cut out any stencils for the right side of the back of the helmet. This is about 8 hrs. worth of painting...as you can see...it goes pretty slow. :thumbsdown: Oh, yeah...Regarding the use of Miracle Whip as a painting mask...you have to be very careful when removing it, or it can cause the paint that is on top of it to smear across what you have already painted. I received an e-mail today from a boardmember who had this problem. So In my opinion, I would use a liquid mask that is designed specifically for painting. This was just an experimental technique that I was trying and have had a fair amount of success with.
