Heat transfer paints

I got some heat transfer paints from the education show.
I thought that I would have a go at using these.

I had to draw an image onto paper and paint on the paper. Then, once the image was dry I would turn the paper over and use an iron to press the paper onto material.I had to iron over the image for a couple of minutes.

Photographs below show the result.

I just completed an image of my hand. I just wanted to experiment with the paints as I had not used them before.
I thought that these paints were really good. Looking at the result, I know that when I use the paints, I need to apply the paints on more thickly as some of the colours did not come out as well as I thought they would.
I really want to use these paints as a part of my project. They are a medium that I have not used before.
