Schultzt Report post Posted June 11, 2014 Alright, I will try to make this as simple as possible. Any help would be appreciated. I am trying to do a white painted piece with gold painted letters. I want the letters to be outlined in black. I tried to black antique a test piece but then I have to but on 3x as many coats of white paint. Also, I find that colors under the gold change the way the gold looks. I think I can get it to look nice but I was wondering if their is a quicker way to get a black border around my letters than hand painting resist, hand painting white, and then hand painting gold. Thanks for the help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dwight Report post Posted June 12, 2014 I had to paint black letters on a white background, . . . and just could not get the paint to run only to the edge of the stamp, . . . it always wanted to run a "little bit more" (I stamped the letters, . . . then painted the inside of them). I wound up outlining it in black (using a very fine point Sharpie) and then painting up to the inside of the line formed by the Sharpie. I didn't realize I could paint so beautifully when I got done,..................... May God bless, Dwight Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
