Yeah, the Ultimate clay wash is freaky going on but it's honestly a treat to work with. Wipes off easily with a paper towel (kitchen roll) or you can use q-tips (cotton buds) to get some streaking. Great stuff and worth every penny.

Thanks, gents. It means a lot to me, no lie. I feel it isn't worthy of the praise, but then again if I say that out loud I know Scott (Twokids) will be in here soon to tell me to stop being so hard on myself. He's a mad scientist with his scratch work so I respect his opinions ;)

We're our own worst critics, yeah?

Going to fix up the canopy lines a bit before I stick a fork in it. For now, wife and dad-in-law are finally back and I;m free from dad duty for a couple hours. I'm going to drink some beer and/or rum. :cheers2:

I had one more update for this, but thanks to Photofuggit I'll need to fix a bunch of broken links first. While I do that, the reveal is up because why not:

viewtopic.php?f=604&t=22994

I'll come back and edit this up tonight or tomorrow so it's all purty with pictures and junk. :hi:
