Superhero Room: Part 4 - "The Lamp"

Superhero Room: Part 4 "The Lamp"
AKA: Well, it was a good idea at least.
(Have you read Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3?)

So we have this green "banker's lamp" in our office... and I'm looking at it, thinking, maybe I could make this have the Green Lantern symbol on it! That would be cool. Right.
Using my handy-dandy Creative Memories circle cutters and paper cutter I made a newspaper mask, got out the white spray paint, and ....
OK... did you notice the gaps in the newsprint on the edges of the circle above?
Me neither... So I didn't have sharp, clean edges.
Instead I had wobbly, over-sprayed, this-looks-nothing-like-the-green-lantern-logo edges.
Crap.
So, I took a toothpick and scraped off the excess paint on the edges. The outside circle is pretty rough, but it gets the idea across, and I think that Robbie probably won't complain.

"In the Brightest Day, in the Blackest Night..."
