Cheers Daz... appreciate the input, since I found a couple of small areas that I wasn't happy with I've decided to go for another couple of coats...
It's mad, I also found a small hair line (approx 10mm) not a crack but would it go after sanding! NO.... :wacko hence more coats of paint!
Mind you all this wet sanding is killing my arms...
Cheers Alan...
I've little progress on this sucker as work has invaded my personal time? But I at least layed down yet another coat of paint last night and I am very happy with the tweaks I made?
I think one more wet sand and back to the polishing!
Cheers Rob... I have a very shiny helmet *cough* and it's looking like I hoped it would! More buffing required in a couple of areas just to get that 'bling'...
Will colour in the arrows tomorrow and shoot some pics in the sunlight just so you can see the shine?
Small update...
I've buffed the .... out of this thing with T-Cut and white polishing compound! I like the look so far, just need to go over it again in a couple of areas?
I'm spraying th RF tomorrow (Black) maybe try and get a mix of chrome/silver sprayed onto the ears, then weathered with fine wire wool to give them some texture?
I painted the ears and filled the arrows today!
When I can post some better pics you will notice that I made some surface imperfections in the ear pieces so as to look like a set of cast ears? Or at least that was the intent...
The arrows just need a little cleaning/buffing around the edges... but I am happy with the results so far...
Next to paint the RF black...
