Not necessarily but like I said it's a big risk. :\\
Burst looks good mate!

looks good the burst Andrew, you might need a bit more black paint to hide the filled chip area. Nice use of the PBG box to do a dummy burst run !

Haha yeah. The many uses for the pbg box. My wife used the other half for something as well. Going to fill the gap with some super glue when the black dries. I'll shoot another pass over the area to level the colour out then I'll clear this one and the candycaster tomorrow.
Holy moly, that looks awesome!
I'm in the same boat as Nick, and would have liked it au naturale. But it is a clever way to hide the chip, whilst still keeping it looking schweet! Can't believe the 3D effect you've achieved on top... Looks pro level. Gun certainly beats can. :P
This is going to be one very, very nice axe man.

Thanks man. The grain is just ebony timber mate and fw black sanded right back. The sides are with black acrylic in an airbrush. Amazing what a knob like me can knock out with the right gear. Lesson learnt, if the jobs worth doing, get the right tools.
Yeah man. I wish I had been able to get a $200 gun kit. I could afford that. Can't afford a $500 kit. :P
Very, very jealous of your bargain.
