Know thyself.

And I know I'll get too frustrated with all the equipment to do a PPG, top gun style of paint job.

So Raf you plan to paint part of it with rattle can and the rest with your airbrush? Are you going to clear coat it?

EDIT: Sorry I posted right when you were putting those shots up. Looks good No matter what you do, setting up a good place to paint and enough light to see (especially the clear coat) are very important.
