Now I get to paint, this feels like it is really coming together.
The first layer is just covering the whole area smoothly.
After that dries, I use a sponge to fill in the tiny holes that were missed. Instead of smoothing the paint like I did on the first layer, I squished the paint on all over. Kind of texturing the texture…if that makes any sense
I also painted the back and sides with a smooth layer of black, just because of the glaring difference. Didn’t feel right to me. I left it black and only one layer though
Then I did a thin, smooth layer of silver/grey to make it look more like metal.
And it’s done!
I still have to figure out how to make it stay on without me holding it 🙂
