Your project is looking GREAT!  Keep going!

Don't take this the wrong way, but your tank still shows evidence of that dent.  It looks good mind you, but as someone that repainted my tank, and found a small dent I didn't fix, after painting, it bears mentioning.

Yep, there is a very slight raised area above the dent, like the rim of a crater. I pondered knocking it down, but that would've flattened the curved area of the tank, leading to more problems. So I decided to leave it, with the Candy Blue paint I'm using its barely noticeable. Once the decals have been added and the clear top coat added, hopefully it will be even less noticeable..

The bodywork has had two coats of 2K clear top coat so far. Now waiting for the decal kit to arrive, once that's applied, I'll spray another 2 or 3 coats of clear, followed by lots of cutting back and polishing. The side panel shows the candy blue with the first two coats of clear on top..
