hey guys,


I'm completely new to spraypainting, but I'm in need of making this:

look like:

without the ear or limb part. The globe i have is a clear dark blue and Ive been worried that painting over it will make the paints texture obvious and look different from the matte plastic feel that I want to get. Is this possible?


i'm thinking that it is probably a good idea to simply spraypaint the sphere. now as for drawing out the lines and eyes I'm not sure what to do so that it doesn't look like I just took a marker and put something there....can i get precise enough with spray paint for that kind of line?


I found a pretty good spray paint that looks like it would give me the desired texture and color:

it is the Montana Gold- 6010 Linden Green


does this seem like a good idea?

any reason you cant use some vinyl for the lines and eyes? that looks like its gonna be a challenge being how its a sphere. what material is the sphere?
