0:48 And I like that. First thing I'm going to do is straighten this out a little bit so it's easier to work with, and in the process of doing that I'm going to kind of melt in the color a little bit.
1:05 Try to give it a nice, smooth texture on the ceiling. Got the object you want to stick it on glowing.
1:12 You apply the millie, press in, pull out, and start moving it around.
1:23 And there's a very, very thin chip of a millie right on that jar.
1:29 And, of course, the first thing you want to do with a millie is encase it in clear.
1:34 In case there are any colors in that millie, like corn, of course, the closer the marble is to an optically perfect dome, the better your image will be, but it's sort of hard to do when you can't really see what's inside the jar yet.
2:10 Now I'm going to actually break into some other stuff I have here, because I happen to really like this dichroic I'm putting on there.
2:28 This is a rip course after you put on all this nice design work and all these millies and everything else, you really, really get annoyed if you do a second raid or a sloppy rim.
