Thank you!I have one pink band in each style and in person they appear to be the exact same shade of pink (to my eyes anyway! ).

Love that last one Violetspider! DS2 just saw it and asked if you do them professionally. I said I don't think so and he said you should! I showed him the PotC one you did and he really loved that one.
We just got our bands Mon. but between DS's band concert last night, Ultimate Frisbee state tournament this weekend, trying to get the house spruced up for family coming to visit for graduation the next weekend, and work, I may not get to painting them till two weeks before we leave. I hope that gives me enough time to do all 6! I am excited to try the leather paints this time.
...Disney insanity has taken over.
Seriously running out of time to complete all of the bands that I want to wear during my upcoming trip. I just now finished a band to wear at Epcot, having chosen to mashup the old with the new (my rendition of the new Disney Compass and the old Epcot Icon Logos of my favored rides). I've got a great idea for a Guardians of the Galaxy band, but luckily for me that's a few years down the road.
If I could make bands with magic markers they could be awesome
I need to come up with something for July 4th week. Hopefully the bands will be coming any day now.
If I could make bands with magic markers they could be awesome, but my hand is totally unsteady to use tiny paint brushes so I tend to go overall gawdy with craft items instead.

I was wondering how many coats of leather paint did you have to apply to make the band white?
edited to add: I painted my band with three coats of white leather paint and it could still use another coat. I then turned over the band and realized I had painted my husband's band white, not mine. Seriously??? Only me...
You can just switch the center pucks and only have to paint that part if you need it white.

Sorry, at WDW now and just saw your question. I wanted it really white, so I did 5 or 6 coats of leather paint. A bit of overkill, but it looks very white.
