I'm going to give the first one babies. I think you put a little bit too much black paint on the second one.

I can see some white lines on some parts of the black, and it looks like there's probably a bump between most of the black and green.

IDK, it's not on of your best.

It looks a bit sloppy to be honest. just because the white in the black.

oh i see what you mean. to be honest thats the glare bc i used a flourescent green with a really glossy clear coat. in real life there is no white its just the lighting makes it look like that way. in person, its my favorite but i see what you mean.

No that is not the glare..... What ever color you put on last, you put way to much on..... Kind of looks like all the strips are sucked in, not even at all......

Did you prep your controller?

Did you use paint good for this?

Did you use a good clear coat and adhesive promoter?

Did you overspray?

Did you work in a poor quality work area? (Rain, etc)

Did you give your paint enough time to dry?

Why thank you. :)

My first controller was out in the rain due to unexpected weather, wasn't a happy ending.

Ive had some xcm shells before, i had a chrome one w/ red lights and some seude ones too, the chrome sucked and got scratched easilly, for battery use, it ussually didn't use up that much more battery than before. I would have bought a new viking mod if i didin't have to buy a new car,(my brother totaled ours), i should be able to get my parents to buy me a mod and those cases for my birthday.
