Of course LOOKING AT THEM it's no mystery why somebody in Taiwan wants them.

thanks man, I think my progress has to do with my art background. I took a lot of art classes in highschool and then got a degree in art history with a minor in studio art (brush painting, drawing, etc). I haven't gotten a chance to use my education to earn money until now. I fell into an accouting job after college and did that for 5 or 6 years and then started working in a bike shop building choppers and got into the paint there. Finally using my degree 12 years after I graduated! lmao

sorry I am rambling

Thanks Rene! I am planning on being at BF4 as a spectator and would love to see some of my work rolling around there! I handle the bodywork when I can but most of the time a good friend does it so I can keep painting. I'd rather be finishing (painting) projects than starting (bodywork) them!!! I have a constant flow of lids I have to work on so it is hard to keep up at times and bodywork is the last thing I would want to be doing LMAO!

I look forward to painting the tank you are gonna build!

Josh

Here are a couple of vids I took of the tanks posted on this thread. Gives you a better idea of the "sparkle" the flake puts off. Doesn't photograph too well.
