Gents, this was paint day. It is 2200 and I can say, it's still paint day!
The whole truck is now wearing a single coat of OD Green!!!!!!!!!!
Thing is, I have at least 2 more coats to shoot. Say 40 min between coats and 30 min to shoot, and I'll be into the wee hours of the morn before I see any shut eye.
I did a full court press today. 8-9 hours straight so far without a break. I just want to get this thing painted and give me that all important psychological boost as the truck takes the turn from coming apart toward starting to look like something!
Welp, time to get out there and get that second coat on...
My head is buzzing and I'm using a good respirator!
