thanks I'm surprised at how real it does look. in real life it is striking guess that would be the word for it. What makes it look kinda singer real is the black lines inside the gold. stencils don't have this, it just comes out a solid gold. so I help looking at my singers hi light lines and tried to copy what they did. alot of this fill in coloring, what you do is just touch the pen tip to the surface, let that dry, then do the same again until you get the right amount of color. this winter I'll get new pens and go back to it. I only did the large design on the back side and there isn't any singer back there ..
