Build Diary of my RD kit

[mike1318crue]

I decided to sand the top, and my first idea was to re-apply a coat of dye.

But when I ended to sand, i cleaned the guitar with a t-shirt, and went to try another stuff.
I noticed that I can just "spread" the color with the t-shirt, since it never really fix to the wood. That was nice to sort of erase little defaults.
So I tried to do a kind of ("kind of") shade on the sides between the top and the back. I want to keep the darker color on the back, 1st because it looks good, and let the top sand, with a lighter red.
That will give a look of "vintage/used" to the guitar.
That was not really easy to make it happen, but I'll stick to my idea. And, anyway, if I don't like it after I apply the paint with glitter, I can still sand and restart.

So the pictures once again don't really reflect realty, since in the bright areas, the light comes in to make it appears really white.











I will maybe change my mind tomorrow with a fresh new look, who knows....
