My original intention was to paint a slice (like a swatch) for each paint color I had in the studio,<br> however,<br> if I could just finish the colors of the rainbow for now,<br> that would be an achievement in itself :P\n\n---\n\n![First layers (https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/zBl0JRV.jpg)\n\n<center><sub>A little aperture anyone?...<\/sub><\/center>\n\n---\n\nAnyhoo,<br> I hope you like my entry because I really enjoyed creating it; I decided to cover the CD-hole with texture paste,<br> trying to make it look like melted chocolate in the middle... and maybe it needs just a little satin varnish to finish it off but I'm fairly sure I'll be making more cookies to add to the collection.\n\nWho knows...? by this time next year,<br> maybe I'll have a whole jar of CD Cookies...\n\n...and maybe it's **Santa** who'd *better watch out*...! bwahaha\n\nUntil next time... xxx",<br>"json_metadata":" \"app\":\"pruner\",<br>\"message\":\"See you on the other side!\" " |
