    Whelp, I got the paint on!




    He's so shiny... Now to wait for him to dry, then it'll be time for decals, a final sanding, and the clear coat!

    Final sanding BEFORE decals, then clear coat.
    She looks really good. Nice job.

    Ha ha, yes greywuuf, I definitely don't want to ruin those lovely decals! I'm debating trying to do another coat of black... I did a couple of light coats to achieve this look, but I'm wondering if I would really achieve anything by doing another coat. If I did another full coat, it would delay the final clear coat by about two weeks due to the pesky ways of mother nature, and I would love to have him up and running again! Thoughts?
