I don't mind at all... I use a piece of 1/8" fuel line. I dip it in paint and apply as dead center as I can get. If I want to do a small pupil I use the same technique but instead of fuel line I use a little "dot maker" I picked up at a craft store. Its just a little metal ball on the end of a stick.
