Thanks,
I much prefer forums to things like Twitter. That platform can be a complete cesspool and sometimes Facebook is not far behind.
Here is where I am posting the videos.

The paint arrived yesterday and I will be painting it this weekend as along as the weather cooperates. I did a quick test on a piece of pine I had laying around and the paint is even brighter than I expected. Once I apply 7-8 coats of high gloss lacquer and polish, it might be too bright to even look at without eye-protection.
I have not applied the high gloss lacquer yet.
I love that colour Sidewinder. It'll be amazing with the clear coats on.

I hope to have this completed sometime next weekend. I'll post the final video for the build on my YouTube channel. .
The color is Synergy Green and is a super fine metallic. It's much brighter in person. Photos just do not do this color justice.
That is vibrant!
I see you painted the headstock. Have you painted the whole neck, or just the front of the headstock?
Mantra: No more pedals, must finish BlueyCaster...

The whole thing. After sanding and polishing I'll remove the gloss from the back of the neck like My Schecter Hellraiser Hybrid.
I have an even bolder color in mind for the V I'm doing next.
