I use very little paint for planets specially where the outer part is, this way it doesnt leave rings.

Thanks Brandon, I'll give it a try, also do you add the shadow to the planet before you drop the lid or after??

it depends. if your just going to do a black sky for instance, you can put down your lid, spray black around it, take the lid off and spray the shadow. but if your doing a different colored sky or nebulas and whatnot then put it on first and then put the lid down

Thanks! Hopefully going to try some live work over the summer, practice makes perfect...
