Excellent work! The MDF stencils seem to do the job quite well.
A question on your spatter technique - to confirm: you're thinning auto acrylic using 2/3 thinner and 1/3 paint ratio? That seems to be VERY thin. Do I have this right?
Also - I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "Really important that the bar which flicks the bristles faces you (otherwise you will cop the spatter!). On this occasion I used the flick bar fully extended for a heavy finish"
Looks like you just have the wire spatter brush and some paint there. What's the "bar" referring to?
Thanks for taking the time to document your work. Superb job; outstanding report!!
