    Ok, opinion time.
    I was trying to achieve a similar color to factory (Imperial Jade Mica) which was like a forest green with gold flakes in it. I ran to get this yesterday and ran it past my fam and nobody likes it.... But I don't think they realize what it looked like from the factory. The other option is just to clear coat with no flakes. What you guys think? This is kind of a big decision.

    Just sprinkled some on the paint for a sample. It'll probably come out denser, but I can play with different ratios when I go to spray.

    I think the biggest thing throwing me off about it is the random blue reflections.

    If it doesn't come out looking like a bass boat then you did something wrong.

    CustomPaints.com really needs to hire someone with a modicum of photography skills, because that looks awful lol. Looks like a unicorn turd

    edit -
    Hmm, I went to their website and the photography looks better on the main page at least

    Apparently I use my left arrow key a lot, because it broke and now I really miss it.

    I use the option/command/spacebar keys a ton when on Photoshop, you can tell because they have dirt halos on them from my fingertips and the rest of the keys look clean

    I should probably clean my keyboard

    Ew. This is why all my keyboards are black :laughing:

    I blew the keyboard out with the air compressor a bit and got a disturbing amount of debris out.

    Take that disposable electronics. Switch seems ok, probably break again once I solder it in…
