heppnerguy Posted October 6, 2014 Report Posted October 6, 2014 (edited) My grandson has a salt water aquarium and spends a lot of time and money on it. I got this pattern and thought it would be perfect for him. Because of the nature of the subject in it, I found it neccesary to colorize it. I found something that I had not seen before and decided to give it a try, It is called a paint pen I used them for the orange and black it this piece and really liked the way they worked.I was considering buying an air brush but I think I will stay with these when i want to paint something. this a just a segmented piece Dick heppnnerguy Edited October 6, 2014 by heppnerguy jellis 1 Quote

LarryEA Posted October 7, 2014 Report Posted October 7, 2014 Dick, You're a clown... fish painter. The painting you did is very nice. Let us know how they store...ie: how long do they last. Quote
DWSUDEKUM Posted October 7, 2014 Report Posted October 7, 2014 Very nicely done Dick.. Has anyone seen Nemo? Thanks for sharing this with us. DW Quote
DWSUDEKUM Posted October 7, 2014 Report Posted October 7, 2014 Dick, You're a clown... fish painter. The painting you did is very nice. Let us know how they store...ie: how long do they last. As long as you keep them capped Larry they last as long as a magic marker. We used to use them on the flightline to mark bolts and nuts and seldom did we have to replace them except when we forgot to put the caps on tight DW LarryEA 1 Quote
LarryEA Posted October 7, 2014 Report Posted October 7, 2014 Thank you DW, I think I might have some. will have to look tomorrow. Quote
Clayton717 Posted October 7, 2014 Report Posted October 7, 2014 great job Dick, I'm sure your grandson will love it. Quote
amazingkevin Posted October 7, 2014 Report Posted October 7, 2014 Show us a picture of the infamous paint pen and brand name,Maybe pearls arts and crafts or michaels might have them Quote
wombatie Posted October 7, 2014 Report Posted October 7, 2014 Looks great Dick. I use paint pens too, especially on my Christmas ornament. The ones I use are Tombow (brand) what are yours? Marg Quote
heppnerguy Posted October 7, 2014 Author Report Posted October 7, 2014 I will look mine up tomorrow. I got them at Walmart for under $2 each I believe..they work better than markers because they do not leave lines where you painted and they cover almost anything besides wood Quote
Tdub4ever Posted October 7, 2014 Report Posted October 7, 2014 That's a pretty neat piece Dick, looks awesome. I'm going to have to give those paint pens a try. Thanks for the idea! Quote
frankorona Posted October 7, 2014 Report Posted October 7, 2014 Great work, thanks for sharing. Quote
