Silver work, thus far. You can see where I drilled out the exhausts. Not much will be visible but going to do lots of metallic colours.

Smooth application, too, because sometimes orange can be a tough one to apply.

Gave it a coat of red and then orange again for an “interesting” colour effect. I think it worked. Given Ken a hairy chest.
