Roll onto 2012/2013.
It was finally finished painting just before xmas 2012.
Got picked up in Jan2013 to start re-assembley of everything else.
I haven't decided what to do with the flutes in the guards. Mine were silver before, but don't know whether to black them out or not. We'll leave them for the time being, and when everything is back together, have another look and think.
Finished paint
The paint was mixed to Safforon code, except instead of silver metallic, we tied a bunch of different pearls, painted them onto some samples and picked what I liked best.
While it's a bit hard to see in the pics, it looks great. Depending whether it's in the shade, sun or artificial light it changes.
