[cool][#0000bf]Good luck. Practice may not make perfect, but it should improve your outcomes. Sounds like you are making good progress.
I pour and paint a lot of jigs. I have just about every color available in the vinyl and I buy the thinners by the pint cans...only about $11 at Barlows and now at Janns too. I keep only a small amount in a bottle at my work area...just in case I knock it over. That stuff is powerful (fumes) and dissolves about anything it comes in contact with. I also use it for cleaning my brushes after using epoxy and for removing various adhesives and permanent marker writings.
Once you get the hang of working with the paints...and the different kinds of jig heads...it becomes much easier to sit down and turn out a batch of good lookin' stuff. It really doesn't matter how it looks to humans, as long as the fishies vote for it.
