Current Stage Info:
I painted the frameset just before Christmas 2019. We went with a simple silver body and gold outlined lugs to compliment the gold chain. The part you cant see is the gold pearl in the clear coat. Only in person can you see its glamour. The setup isnt finished yet but since covid-19 happened. Mostly everything has been slow or non existent. We will all recover from this time and hopefully stronger than ever. Take care everyone ️
