Wow. That looks really good.
Cant wait to see it in the flesh next week.

Hi Carl, I used Rustoleum Painters Touch rattle cans, shed loads the cab soaked it up, white primer, satin for the base white, Reeves acrylic for the silver splatter and gloss for the art which I wanted to "pop" a bit. Not sure this approach would suit an SI which I guess you'll stencil, have you see matt adams Fathom cab paint video on youtube?Just a quickie what type of paint did you use ?
What method did you do the silver splatter?
Was it by holding the spray can at a great distance away ?
4 days to go...
Still a few bits left to buff and solder but mainly a case of throwing this lot back together. I've de-rusted everything as best I can but I don't intend highly polishing internal parts. Fortunately I've taken copious photos and numbered the bags as I took things off so will just reverse through them.

The glass was hosed and undergoing an acrimonious divorce from its paint I've re-added the key lines, touched up the opaque areas and cut out most of the translucent panels then replaced with theatre gel and made light shields with funky space fonts! The end result I would grade as "usable", tbh depending on how everything else turns out it could be in line for a bgresto.You touching up or at least kryloning the glass?
