Calais's first build - ST-1

[wokkaboy]

Calais has had trouble uploading pics so he's sent them to me to upload. He originally went for a chrome finish which didn't work out. Now he's got chromatic paint which he says photo's don't do justice. Mirror pickguard he's in the final stages of the build now

Looking nice Calais. So is "chromatic" paint the stuff that changes colour depending on the angle of the light source?

[wokkaboy]

hey Fretty yes Calais said the colours change in different light angles.

Its actually a holgraphic paint finish.Chromatic was what I was working on but changed it up a bit.Im am uploading a vid tht still doesnt do it justice but gives more of an idea.I have about 100 different colours to work with but pretty happy with this one so far.Thanks wokka for up loading.They look better on here.

Chromatic is more a transparent colour over a chrome base,like easter egg wrapping.

Very cool. Reminds me of TVR's chameleon finish on their cerbera cars

looks great- you got it right with the black pickguard etc too, nice job

pickguard is mirror,but i can see why it sort of looks black because of the background.
