Never used the stuff...takes to long. Though on some graphics like intricate flames, I may render on an overlay, cut those out and spray mount (3M super 77 only) them to the main rendering. Also, since I don't have an airbrush to do subtle gradients, I use scraped chaulk/bestine on a gause pad. Use a sharp eraser to get crisp edges or remove chaulk. Once you've made a nice mess outside of boundaries of the rendering, you can cut it out and mount it on a clean sheet with a background. My wife got sick of me messing up the dining room table so I started using photoshop...cleaner, quicker and the "undo" command is great!
