Making an Aspis - Ring Method (Visual Aids)
#34
No. I meant using enamel based paint as opposed to color, but thanks for the information Stefanos.

Okay. Today's step is really, really exciting! :roll:

In all seriousness, all I did was paint the inside of the bowl with two coats of red, and I will let it dry until tomorrow when I will make the porpax and do the metalwork. I may have to wait a few days until the next update because I ordered very basic, solid brass, rosette cabinet knob backings to use for the base of the rings. I have not gotten them yet so I will be at a stand still until I get them. They shipped and should be here in the next few days.

Note that it doesn't matter if you get paint on the rim because you will cover it with more cloth using this method anyway. My rim will be yellow on both sides with a black key design on the front and a pattern seen on vases for the back.
