    Then flaked, and started clearing... Sorry my camera doesn't pick up the flake at all.. I'll try in the afternoon to take a few.. Still need a few more coats.. then wet sand and spray a couple last coats... im happy so far!

    That does look bad ass. The flake roof with base color on the lower body is going to look great. Can't wait for another update.
