Yes, very high quality work. Note the first coat of primer being 'dusted' on very light.. I thought the first colour coat was a guide coat for wet flatting but seems it didn't need it. I suppose it helps to have nice condition parts to work on, rather than the dented rusty cracked old junk more often seen.

Also the little details that really make an idea 'pop', like the drop shadow on the gold leaf.

Anyone know what clear he is using? he's putting colours over clear coats without gloves or goggles so not a 2k clear?

I guess about a £1000 paint job there, more maybe.
