They're just white blobs with black blobs in the middle. The trick was to get the paint at just the right flow rate so that it formed a natural circle. The hard part was finding the centres.Wellington Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08295966991101976478noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4242408484763644333.post-20921603728696051582017-08-14T06:09:20.935+12:002017-08-14T06:09:20.935+12:00They are, H-U von B.
