flick a paint brush or tooth brush onto a black painted surface. Spacey did one for a plat on star wars pm himOriginally Posted by nlindenj
Flinging white paint onto a black background made the spots too large.
Get you a stiff toothbrush with the longest bristles you can. Get one with the bristles that point different directions too if possible.
A lot of this is just experimenting so try different things on something besides the faceplate, first.
Different paints that are think or thin give different results, too. And I keep the brush back a ways to do an even background, and then move closer to do star clusters.

GOD, I do love that database.
Spacey,
I clicked on the link for your plates and just realized that 20% of all faceplates in the world are spacey faceplates!!!!
How many years have you been doing this for?
One.
I started last year when the Elite came out.
I also just had my Ghostbusters plate close on eBay with no bidders at $40. I got an email asking if I'd sell it for less. I told them $30 and they agreed but haven't paid me yet. Then I was at 360achievements.org last night. I ran across a guy who bought one of the first GB plates I made from a friend for $150!
I want to sell one for $150! Not $30! WTF?
On the good side, apparently some people are now considering me an artist.
I have been passing on requests because of all of the irons I have in the fire, but I got one today that I couldn't pass up. I can't tell you more because it's for someone's birthday and I don't want to spoil it.
Someone big.
I'm big.Do I get a birthday gift??!
