Thanks! Sadly when I sprayed it with the acrylic spray to water proof everything, the gold ran. I sprayed it upside down so thankfully it just looks like golden smoke rising from the dragon. |

I think it looks good as is, if you put lines it might be too much red. Leaving it the way it is, makes it look like jewels are on it.
The second pot looks awesome. Great job!

You could always water down whatever color you want and test it. If you don't like it, just wipe it off with a damp cloth...just an idea!
Your latest dragon pot is QUITE fancy, Ryan! You're really getting innovative with these. I wish I had more time for even more side hobbies and such! Keep up the great work!   |

That's one of the issues, I don't have time to do this stuff! Meh...I make it anyway.
So I sealed it. I can still paint on it if I decide to but for now I decided to stay my hand. It looks fantastic all done up. No idea what I'll put in it. |

It does look great just the way it is. Sometimes if you add one more thing it can ruin it. I always have that problem when I do a painting. When is it finished?

That's so true! Sure i could probably paint over it if I felt it went too far but I'm so slow it would take me forever to fix all again.
For now it is done and who knows, I'd like to make a larger version of this pot and perhaps more would be better in that case. |

Bob that is a work of art. It is mounted perfectly & the plant & pot are perfectly symmetrical.
