11:35 pm curently -1 outside time to try out some patches for special paint effect

[DazMode]

How did it go?

[dmckoy]

no luck .. temp inside garage didint drop under freezing point and as soon the sun hitted the roof it was over 10c inside.

il have to wait a few weeks still.

[bungwirez]

its gotta get cold in Gatineau sooner or later. lolz

[dmckoy]

so i know how to make it work , but i didint know the science behind it.
the sub zero temperature of the left frozen can of paint is making more paint less solvent go out and there for the base coat dry slower then second coat.
and that why it makes it crack.
iv seen some crackling glaze and iv seen on youtube pepole using wood glue as a media to make acrylic crack.

might be an option to my wet enamel to acrilyc method.

[dmckoy]

not bad not the best color scheme.

first the base coat must be really dry

they applied some regular white glue the way you aply it is the way strikes in crackling goes



il have to try it again with a thicker coat of glue and tap it on so it don't give as much direction.

final product
P.S. it will crack even more this is less then an hour after.

[Father Fuzzy]

thats a interesting effect

[dmckoy]

il have alot less time for moding i got 1220 pages to read i hope it has alot of pictures...

My first semester of my program was ~$1400 in text books and that one was included in the pile (or at least an A+ certification book in general). Chances are if you have a reason to even read the book ie. attempting to take the certification you probably know quite a bit of what is already in the book and you will be able to scan over sections not have to read it in full detail.

I never did bother to take the A+ exam because at the time no one cared except for maybe BestBuy/FutureShop tech squads.
