If you try and rush or get tired of trying to make something perfectly smooth or flat, and think ahhh it'll be alright, DON'T walk away and come back later well rested it'll be worth it.
yeah im finding myself doing just that. especially on the hood and bed rails. i think "good theyre done" but actually i still have a few hours left of skimming and blocking to make em perfect. fortunately i work with a guy who has been doing custom body work for over 20 years and he is eyeballing it for me and giving me some pointers. and thankfully im starting to get some people looking on here too so im looking forward to comments and suggestions to help me along the way coupled with help and advice from my bro dragonwrecker.
