Here is where you need to stay flexible with this stuff. On the center portion of the graphic I intended to use a cool paint method call the "water drop" trick. It's very easy to do and looks just like water drops. What you do is spray water drops on the surface and just airbrush a light color from one direction at a low angle. You then let the water dry and shoot some candy over it to lock it down and shade the water drops.

I had it all done, but I got an ugly color shift when I shot the candy and it looked muddy. I didn't like the look and re shot it back to the red.
