So first blast out sheep didn't bleat twitchers didn't groan infact no heads were turned by the purple piggy yay that's a win!
Definitely cooked it with the black...too much and too fat lines... nevermind we lives and learns eh! Maybe I might treat myself to an airbrush...trying to do what I had in my mind with the on off cannon that is an aerosol is ..well ..nigh on impossible....just about got it on the stem...nearly....handy as that's the bit I see the most of
I'm going to give myself 9/10 for just plain old gettin it done..
5/10 for quality of finish..
6/10 for fartistic licence!
10/10 for not giving a damn

I've been thinking since yesterday. Of a polite way to describe what I'm thinking about all this..

Nothing came to mind.

I agree on that part:
10/10 for not giving a damn


Edit: As I'm not a native speaker, is that "grovel" in the title an intensional misspel? I wasn't familiar with that word up until a momant ago. It's funny. `-.-´
