<p>[QUOTE="CheersDears, post: 245651, member: 2131"]I think I saw this guy in action at Darling Harbour, Sydney Olympics. He was very clever and very quick. He worked on super shiny surfaces, using spray paint and then acrylic (?) which he would smear (to create the effect of the waterfall, for instance.) I know that round lids featured somehow in the painting of the planets, and detail was scratched through the wet paint. He might even have worked on plastic sheets; certainly it was shiny enough to let him muddle and drag the paint. A clever guy, and I seem to recall he was American? Canadian? Who would have thought that would still be in the memory bank <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/smile.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":)" unselectable="on" /> Sorry I can't help more, but it was fascinating to watch this very slick operator.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
