Unfortunately, there's no any lume on this pacman dial as requested :mrgreen:

Thanks to Pvirus to provide me with raw engraved dial, really sharp and easy to paint.
Not the same skills as Praz to paint but here my work...

You're welcome Nico :wave:
I think your work on those dials is amazing. Good job, Nico! :thumbup:
BTW, what did you use to fill engravings on numbers, minute markers, etc? Is it wax?

As I was looking for something little bit vintage I used wax to fill in white and red. I'm not really happy with my lume application, there was grooves in the lume after drying, and the multilayer is not clean, I need to find a solution to have puffy effect on the second one.
