I made an enter sign, I wanted it to look like aged wood but it didnt come out as well as I'd liked. I'm not crazy about it so I wanted to get your opinions on it...

It still looks cool! But I know the feeling when you wanted something to look a certain way and it doesn't. I think anyone else who sees it will like it.

I used the wrong paint on it, thats what messed it up, I needed to use Acrylic but I used enamel and it ate the foam....I think I'll redo it and buy some correct paint...I have ADD when it comes to this stuff, I just have to be happy with it or it bugs me.....

I'm the same way -- even if everyone else in the universe says it looks great, I'm a perfectionist and am not satisfied with it until it gets my seal of approval!

what often happens with me is, I fix it it the way I like it then people say "I liked it better before"
