looks great, im thinking of doing mine red. What paint did you use, and would it be possible to get a glossy kind of finish to it rather than it ening up a matt colour?

i use some gloss lacquer and give it several coats depending on what I'm doing, there's a really good how to on here to get that glossy finish
