bpark yes i did sand it thats what the second pic is

and dakotakid im just awesome with a rattle can lol jk, the texture isn't to my liking right now needs to be more textured when i do the next coatings im gonna make it better, but to get that effect i stepped back a bit and did a final medium speed spatter coat not so even, its hard to explain just gotta eyeball it and get a feel for it, i was surprised it turned out as well as it did considering i did no planning what so ever for this kinda just winged it lol

OK so right now I'm doing more coats ill post pics later of the steps I'm trying to get it thicker as well as get some texture by just tapping on the spray and randomly putting droplets of liner everywhere hopefully it turns out good.
