When I read the title of this thread I thought "yuuuuck".... but having seen the guitar, thus far I think it looks pretty cool ;)

That’s a great guitar, i really like the simplicity of the headstock with your decal!

All done! Jazz/JB combo is a pretty sweet mix of pickups. ;D

First of all, this is awesome.

Second, the white part ALWAYS looks to me like some very bright reflection in all of the pictures you posted lol I always have to look twice to realize that's actually white paint. I guess you get extra points for having created an optical illusion with this finish!

Also if I'm ever to name a guitar I've made, I'll ask you for one of those weird, random and cool names you come up with 8)

Thanks! They are almost always words or titles from songs or bands that make me think of the design in one way or another. This one is named after translated parts of "the pillows" song "Thank You My Twilight" which is one of my favorite songs. :)
