I know a kid who does it himself, started a little side business doing it. His stuff looks pretty decent.

thanks, I have a few mistakes, but I know why they are there.

I didnt buy a kit, I only got the activator and a couple different films. So Im into it for $30 or so right now.  There is alot of tricks to it though!
