Same thing, get more pictures, the split pics don't do your hard work any justice!

More pics are coming soon. It was in a one car garage but i took it to the shop yesterday so more pics to come going to paint soon. The color is the same as in the rendering a matte blue and gold. The gold is just for highlights.

Looks good.

Even though as fellow photoshopper that PS'd GS belongs to beginners section if you know what I mean.
Good thing the real work is nothing like the PS'd one.

In for more pics too!
