its not finished yet, but here is it in current form... right before i have another update for it!


 
Yeah, link is still screwed up. What brand paint/clearcoat did you use?
 
Excellent Job. Ive always wondered how to get that professional look. Its got to be the clear coat. That makes me want to paint.
 
looks amazing now, but from my experience(sp) it will look like total shit in about 3-4 months. i ahve tried painting my mouse several times with different types of paint using several layers. the oil and fraction/constent use starts to slowly take the paint of layer by layer. the place where i put my thump is down to the base, the left click is on the last layer of color, and the palm part is starting to go to.

anyways if you could post how it looks in 4 months,a dn if it doesnt look like total shit im gona be even more impressed?
 
I was kinda thinkin the same thing about how it's gonna look after 5-6 months. But the clearcoat is a good idea.

Really did come out nice looking.
