MoonSKMEI: Starry-starry Night

Another mod of the moonswatch “homage” by SKMEI (1982). This time I decided to mod the “Neptune” version as the latest moonswatch release was the Blue Moon. It made me wonder what my take of the Neptune would look like.

I think sometimes when we tried to make a particular art piece, the art decided to go its own way. This is what kinda happen when I started to paint on the dial. I never meant it to look how it is right now but somehow it just does.

Maybe it’s because there’s a Van Gogh’s art exhibition in my city but my painting started to look like it’s inspired his “Starry Night” painting. So I just lean even harder to the style.

Here’s the final result.

Painting this watch dials has been so much fun.

Just acrylic mixed with clear coat varnish.

Does the varnish help it to harden better? I tried to use acrylic for the case before but it just peeled off to easily
