So this is what im entering in the Valve Cover contest at the import alliance meet in TN this year. I wanted to stray away from the usual just stencil and spray paint and actually hand paint something on a vc. So this was my idea, to do the great wave painting. It actually turned out a whole lot better then i thought lol. It took me roughly a 5 days to paint. Tell me what you think! Its just for show, I used model paint, so that shiet would melt lol!

Original Painting

Primed and sketched

Final! Just cleared!

THANKS everyone!!!!!!! I went with some model enamel paint, I want to do another one but this time with a paint that can withstand high temps.
