Got some paint on it. Slight departure from box art - I masked the windows. Thought about doing a quick coat of the black to give them a tint but decided against it in case it affected the silver coat.

With regards the black over the silver, as long as the silver is on thick enough, the black shouldn't show through. The TRF shell I got is white n black, but the whole of the inside is black. Like so......

The metallic silver is super thin and somewhat transparent - I think a black coat would have greyed it myself.

What it does is change the tone, white backing brightens and black takes the tone down. Mines gonna be translucent red with a gun metal backing. :)
