My wife uses a technique like this to decorate eggs and christmas ornaments.  
But she sprays a thin film of paint on the surface of a paper cup full of 
water and gets a pretty cool look on the objects.

"For Americans war is almost all of the time a nuisance, and military skill 
is a luxury like Mah-Jongg. But when the issue is brought home to them, war 
becomes as important, for the necessary period, as business or sport. And it 
is hard to decide which is likely to be the more ominous for the Axis -- an 
American decision that this is sport, or that it is business."
