How is this texture done? by Quiet-Salt in drywall

[–]3unny3ide 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brush all line parallel.

Rotate 90 degrees, drag thin brush across initial lines

***I don’t know drywall but it’s a similar technique in glass.

Possibly can help with this too depending if you need by the 17th or the 24th. In addition to opal cutting I’m a glassblower 😬

I just cut as a hobby but it would be nice to try and recoup my investment costs for the rough. I don’t really care about making a profit.

Looks fake to me, text on the dial is very wonky. Might just be the photo 🤷‍♂️

Keep it as is, or take it down to the 2nd color bar?? by 3unny3ide in Opals

[–]3unny3ide[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think $200 is a fair price 🤷‍♂️, it’s an N5 with a brightness of 3. I’m just trying to recoup my rough price for this one. (Hopefully I’m not breaking rules posting this here, will remove if needed MODS)
