This morning I finished painting the 2 water cans by touching up with red, white and blue in places that needed it.
All there is left to do now is to sand paper the wooden handles to remove splodges of paint and revarnish them, but I will leave the cans for now to allow the paint to fully harden.
Looking forward to travelling next year with them on the cabin roof 😊

This afternoon I attempted the shadowing of the names on the 2 water can, soon after starting I got the shakes hence the poor quality, but tomorrow I will go back over the red and white to improve them. 🙁

This afternoon I printed out 6 templates for the 2 new water cans,

This morning I painted the 2 white stripes, then the seam, on 1 of the 2 water cans 😊.

This afternoon I painted the inside of the 2 water cans, not the easiest part of the paint job. 😊

3rd coat of red applied to the 2 water cans this afternoon, not that you can notice.
I may have to do a 4th coat, will see what it is like when it has dried 😊

2nd coat of red applied to the 2 water cans this morning, and one coat inside the spout. 😊

Having bolted on both handles, and primed and undercoated them yesterday, this morning I was back on track and gave both water cans a 2nd coat of blue. 😊
