I've been watching videos of brandon and other artists and wondering what they use to cover their planets. They almost look like pot lids, where can i get these cheap? I tried using yogurt containers and those dont work because they leave a serrated edge on the planet. Now i use a circular tin bin, but there are still minor issues as well. So if anyone could answer my question that would be great.
Thanks!

i had the same issues when i started messing with spray paint. I found i was putting the paint on the paper either too thick or i was using my cover up too soon not allowing the paint to dry a little bit. as far as getting paint out of the foam brushes...i use paint thinner tyhat has been watered down slightly. another trick is if you dont like cleaning brushes sit out side your local dump and wait for someone to throw away a couch. steal one of the cushions and cut it up till your content. one cushion will yield about two 25 gallon trash bags full of foam for you to use.

I get most of my planet stencils at Goodwill. They always have tons of lids, cups and just about anything else you can imagine...and it is very affordable.

I use lots of peanut butter lids cause they're big enough for me to get a grip on them to take them off... I also use bottle caps and medicine cups (like the plastic ones you get with children's medicine)... and paper plates are ok for really big planets but they're hard to get to come off lol.
