Got my first kit late last year and did all the measuring and mock setup, but have only just started work on the finish this week. The body has been sanded and I'm using aerosol cans for the finish, almost done with the primer and looking forward to getting some colour on there (surf green).

The headstock has been shaped and I've applied clear dingotone to the neck - I'm not positive whether or not I've done a good job of this because from a certain angle in a certain light dark marks appear, which could be the wood grain, could be a dodgy finishing job on my part, or could be I didn't sand it well enough - any feedback would be much appreciated.

It's fairly dismal weather in Melbourne today, but hoping to finish priming and considering whether to apply another coat of clear to the neck or just start the final coating.
