RayburnGuy Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 wow i guess there is so many things i see all day and never payed attention thanks guys. Exactly. I was just like you when first trying to paint scales. Once you train your mind to think "Will this make a good scale pattern" you'll start seeing things in places you never even imagined. good luck, Ben Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
