Well done! Mind sharing what colors you used / posting step-by-step pics?

I used the Duracoat "Multi-Color" colors and stencils. Unfortunately, I didn't take step by step pics, but I'll try to write up something on the steps I took.

That looks amazing...and from someone who sprays quite a bit of duracoat, it looks like the process was surely a bit tedious...great job!

ETA: How do you like that stock setup?

Thanks for the kind words guys. It was very TEDIOUS, and even frustrating. I made some mistakes that I won't repeat next time. It is the Lauer kit, but I bought three sets of stencils, and there weren't enough of the small ones. I cut many on my own, and should have cut more. The Lauer colors don't match exactly either, but are very close. I'll do this again soon and will post a step by step tutorial of what works for me. Thanks again for the nice comments.
