Looks good Steve.

If you're trying to deconstruct another person's just just break it down into individual parts or every colours, forget the fades and stuff just look at the area's, then look at the detail.

Give me a shout if you're really stuck ?

It's the detail of it that I don't think I'll get close to (the design isn't anything I can't cut out), but I don't think I've ever pushed myself since starting this (I've just tried to do simple and keep it clean,) so I'd like to give it a go.

Ian you will have PM =].... Email rather.

Also I've tried to put more detail in my lights, but I struggle with mutliple radius circles when freehanding, so I tried putting my scalpel in a compass, but that didn't work too well! Any tips? If it's just practice, I don't wan't to hear it I guess vinyl cut ones would be a right treat, a vinyl cutter would be a treat even, Santa?!

I use an olfa circle cutter - readily available from the stationers or craft store, and some vinyl mask - Oramask 810. John sells a similar product.

Give it a try. Easy as 3.14 recurring...

Oh, best job yet mate. Very nice!

Oki doke, thanks Jon and Julian, always something else to buy....

Received a fantastic email from Ian (nearly a page long) regarding a break down of the SHOP UFO design, what an awesome guy. But I need practice with transparants/fine detail first....

Will make sure I post up the original for a comparison.

And to all that have commented, much appreciated.

Supastox pairing with the same design, just different colours.

The price of a painted Supastox shell has gone up to £20, simply because they take just as long as a TC.

Thanks.

A repeat order for Don Irvine.

Half of the credit goes to Ian (Paint by Ian) as he's been helping me through multiple emails. Looks pretty good in person, much happier with the sides compared to the last attempt, give or take a couple of bits that could still do with improvement, but that's just me being too critical probably.

An appalling phone photo of Simon Hibberd's. He collected it straight away, 10 minutes after I finished it at night, so it's not my fault .
