i think something like that in green or purple would look good with the orange and blue paint

tint was made in a paint shop , straight orange tinter 50% , and straight silver tint 50%. I really think it needs an orange pearl mixed with it , but it's looking ok so far.

Got a bit done today , mainly getting it completely in undercoat and rubbing it back.
Under bonnet will be painted tomorrow , think i might do some art under there as well.. be spending tonight making some templates for this , as welll as finishing off the ones i have already started to make.

This image is missing the block , but dopnt stress , its in the bucket of water is it doesnt stick to the car like the paper does.

You may also notice im rubbing with 240 grit wet ,this is because there was a few deep scratches in the prep , and its been coarsely sanded to have a finer , wetter undercoat layer applied , then it'll be rubbed with 400 wet.

Have also decided on the pattern for the 2 tone..

gotta wait and see!!!
