I did a lazuli pearl the other day. Most of the bike it's over white, but for the lowers I shot it over black. This thing is amazing. It pops so good in the light. It looks like it is glowing.

Oh and I know the lowers (blue pieces) have a little orange peel. Those pieces will not really be seen unless he wrecks :D
I did flatten out the upper half of them. I know kinda lazy, but I was way behind with these.

That looks nice, I love that pearl.

I was wondering if you have any threads on here or anywhere that tells the steps you take when painting a complete bike. Im thinking of painting mine and would like to have an idea of the process before I get started.

It has some road rash on the left fairing(sp) and a crack on the lower. What would you use to fill the deep rash scratches and to repair the crack?

Also I will be laying the base and having someone else airbrush some stuff. Do I clear over the base and sand with xx grit before it goes to him then clear over the airbrushing after he's done?

Any help you can give would be awesome, Thanks!
