I think you guys are amazing, not just the progamers, also the mods, the community and everything around it. Therefore, I stealthily persuaded my roommates that don't know anything about starcraft or your existence to use your logo on our dining room table, here is the work in progress and the end result ! the work in progress : http://imgur.com/a/wyDjg#68Ka1 the end result: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/68Ka1.jpg) Greetz, DD.Beaver / Multividi on reddit / Beaver.916 EU in game p.s. ask me anything about how I did it  . | ||

). same story for the silver paint, except that sais side-glaze instead of high glaze. I think you shouldn't listen to me for any paint advice though.Edit: Gl with your beer pong table ! | ||

It sounds like it is in fact paint. The typical English translation is "high-gloss" (very shiny) and I'm guessing "side-glaze" is "semi-gloss" (somewhat shiny). Looks great! | ||

Think hes talking about the stencil they used, just need to print out a large copy on several pieces of paper tape it together then cut it out and then tape it to the table. I don't see a primer though and that table top is likely plastic as most tables now are wood center with plastic wood like paneling i'd be worry about pealing if they didn't use a proper paint. Still cool though. | ||

But did you just paint over the finish? If you did not at least put on a single coat of primer first, you may end up with some of the stained wood texture bleeding through the paint job... | ||

if you look at picture 3, then 2, then 4,5,6, you can see exactly how it's done :D we didn't even have any rollers or sprays or anything we made the whole thing by handbrushing (getting the correct thickness across the board was kind of a pain, as you can see between the horses manes the silver is a bit lighter there.) to be honest there are probably a lot of people that could do this better than me since it was my first painting project ever and we did it in like 4 hours or something . Also the paint we used was just some random paint my roommate apparently had left from something he did so we probably didn't have the best paint either hehe.also in the picture it looks really really good, but if you zoom in on it you can see we didn't do a perfect job at the edges of the blue either it was just a fun afternoon project hehe.if you wonder what we did between any of the pictures just ask. | ||

I see tables like that chill at yard sales for under $20 all the time (and got one myself for free because someone just needed to get rid of it when moving out of an apartment.) | ||
