Ah good good! That was my plan for the project! I mixed aluminium metal powder in with the resin...to get a better shine I used Brasso and a polishing cloth!Eliste wrote:That's fiberglass?? Wow. Super impressed with your paint/weathering job. I was convinced it was metal.
If you don't mind me asking, what did you use to make it look so much like metal?

The inside you can see the fiberglass mesh...I didnt really have to worry about the inside so much! But it wouldnt take much to make it as nice as the outside, just time wasnt on my side finishing it!Pyper wrote:It looks fantastic. Out of curiosity what is the inside like? A similar finish?
