took a little while, but i think it was worth it.
tubes were decorated by my 5 year old grand daughter whilst i was on baby sitting duty...she has to have something to do or else she creates absolute havoc lol..
decorated with nail varnish and big leaf glitter,
cast by me with a touch of blue and red glitter
the pen will be gifted to her, hopefully she wont break it
i am a very proud gramps

That actually works really well, it's a really good match of blank and kit parts, she should be proud of her work and a great gift..... I once saw an oil on canvas painting done by a 7year old that was just stunning..... Given the materials and good tutalidge anything is possible :drool::drool:
