Lots, lol. 2 or 3 hours a day for 2 months. There's A LOT of masking! His diamond top took ages to mask the diamond shapes then paint, and then mask again to get the gold edging and paint again. I guess we could've painted it freehand but it wouldn't have the uniformity of a printed fabric that we were trying to create.

Thanks again for comments :D
