This was one that I was trying to get finished for a painting contest recently, but unfortunately did not get done in time.
It was my really my first true attempts at chrome-ish NMM. For having done any kind of NMM only about a half dozen times, I am pretty happy with my results.
With the zoomed in pics I have already spotted a half dozen problem points but oh well, i think it is time to call this one done and move on.
But, as always, opinions are always welcomed for improvement is always the goal.
Oh, and since it will be the first thing that everyone will point out, yes, I on purpose left the base bare. I figured it was going to be tough enough to paint chrome type issues with a bare base much less something that had a bunch of detail in it.
