[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 74640, member: 134"] I'm pretty much going in this direction. I've read a couple of blogs with guys that have hand painted the planet area, one did a huge section, the other with small areas like mine. While neither turned out perfect, they would easily pass a first and second glance. I just read yesterday of a guy redoing a Pin*Bot, which has WAY more stars than mine, and he hand painted all the black paint, carefully going around the stars and planets. Again, totally doable, just need to take your time. And absolutely, who knows what I'll feel when I get this thing polished up and playing pretty. Let's just say that first week of me owning (and posting), I was going through a complete emotional spectrum. My head is in the right place, now I'm excited to do stuff to it. Money for not just parts, but paint, sand paper, cleaning supplies, lacquer, all those incidentals that are needed at the start of any hobby, that's the main thing that will dictate the speed with which anything gets done. Maybe I should start a kickstarter. Ha! [/QUOTE]
