Dahone,
I have a Hobbytown USA store not far from me, so I get a lot of my hobby supplies there.

Smallish update for now. As I mentioned in my previous post, I was not happy with the color saturation of the green once I finished spraying and demasking the gray.
Just one of those hmmmm moments. So I used a Scotchbrite pad over the panels to smooth them out, then reapplied my masking fluid to all the gray areas and reshot the CNW Green.
Much better results! Not sure what happened the first time, but shooting another couple of layers over the original green base coat seems to have helped immensely.
Here are 2 shots of the back panels in indirect natural light.
I also redid the gray overspray patterns. They're subtle, but visible, in the above shots.
I started doing some small touch ups already, and will continue to work in some smaller details and the silver areas over the next few days.
