I took my old Cast Iron Flying Pig and used Unicorn SPiT to airbrush a Galaxy on it.
This is how he started out, I found him at auction and had to have him.
I cleaned him and primed him with a general primer.
I used my airbrush and different mixtures of Unicorn SPiT to do a base layer of the background color.
I started building up designs using my airbrush and some stencils I cut out. I got the idea how by looking up airbrush tutorials online.
Knowing that Unicorn SPiT drys chalky and deepens up when sealed I did my highlights brighter than I wanted for the finished product.

This is showing 360 of what he looks like before sealing.

This is me spraying an enamel sealer on it. Watch the transformation of the Unicorn SPiT.
I sealed him with a spray on enamel. I think the depth of the layers and the 3D effect of Unicorn SPiT makes it work!
