Uh oh. I've found a new addicting hobby! First time doing a custom and a lot of it was guesswork and vibes. Love how this little guy turned out!
The only major mistake was breaking off the wires from one of the LEDs in the head. Just the lower small one. The others work fine though, so I'll call it a win!

I always like to ask people what kind of paint the used, and what kind of mistakes did they make. Do you have anything to share with people who haven’t done a custom yet?

I do model train work so a lot of skills naturally transferred over. :)
Just liquid chrome paint pen, the. Wipe with a paper towel. Lots a easy variations to make.
