Tim,
Like your gas tank, in case you don't go back to that thread.

Couple things I noticed though. I think the highlight is up to far on the tank. I'm posting a pic I made up of my scoot to show what I mean. It is more toward the "corner" where the top and side meets.

Also, the tail end of the tank would be down over the backbone 50-80% in most cases, if not almost completely covering it.

Keep us posted on this project. I'd like to see it.

Thanks Mike,
Truth be told, I was working on trying to make paint that looked like it had debth and gloss.
Also trying to get the shadows and highlights right. This is very helpful to me.
My goal is to post one car or bike that actually looks like one before the end of the year! I'm guessing it'll take that long too:-)
Thanks again, tim
