Re: new projects
A bit of wiring and adding the last plate, this is about as far as I can go until I get a J-O-B

Re: new projects
Doing my first paint work, headstock for my bass vi. Clearly it isn't perfect, but I am about to wet sand a run and some orange peel out of the clear in prep for the decal, then more clear.

Re: new projects
Shit tonnes of sanding and polishing later, ready for the decal, then a bunch more clear/sand/polish/repeat
There are some scratches under the clear as I should have smoothed it out more, but it doesn't bother me too much, learning experience and all that. I actually think these will be harder to see with a lot more clear over top.

Re: new projects
I think I tagged the decal a bit, so I am going to clear it once more, but this is what the decal looks like *mostly* finished, with a 3 stage polish. Getting close!
