...then start adding depth every 5 to 10 poly/paint layers, adjusting the colour mix slightly between each batch.

So do you mix the milk paint powder into the poly? Or do you alternate layers of paint>poly>paint>poly etc?

I mix the milk paint into the poly. And actually, it would probably be a good idea to have a few layers of clear poly between paint-poly batches.

Interesting colour choice.. I was expecting black and orange......

Nah, it's the name of the style of the glasses. I do have a soft spot for the Tigers, but I'm more of a Richmond guy.

That looks great! I have never heard of milk paint. I aged the finish on my tele with some meths based wood stain, but I like this idea more.
Nice job!

That colour goes well with the gold, looks great.

Weekend action. Contours and headstock shaping. Lots of sanding next.

So.... only 3 on-the-go at the moment???

Are you going to use a neck plate or bushes to mount the neck?

Yep, only 3 on the go at the moment

And it will be a curved neck plate for this project. I've got a gold one en route.
