That’s a strange looking beastie – it’s looking very good though – you’ve done a nice job with that painting!

I actually used normal rattlle can spraypaint, color is super chrome...
However the decals were TERRIBLE to say the least.

Very nice! I've been looking for a nice bright silver in rattle can but haven't found one yet. What's the brand you used?
