Beautiful Paintwork.. Any tips for painting the fish scales ?

I want to scale the side of my car.





Thanks for all the kind words from everyone.it has been a long time since I have painted anything like this.the pics I put up do not do it justice at all.here are a few in some different lighting without lettering.As for doing the scales it takes alot of time.About 7 hours a side just to do the scales,They are all airbrushed,there are 119 rows verying from 8 scales high down to a few where the wheel wells are.with candying & fogging the scaled sides for both were 20 hours straight of painting.needless to say that was no taping time.just painting.I was smoked after that.this is all done in base clear.God I miss laquer paint!anyway the more comments the more pics you get....here you go!







I am suprised that there was no mention of the wheels yet.The nos keystones I have are GM pattern.my disk brakes came with 4"&4 1/2" pattern.so I had to nix the keystones for now.So I got wheels that would be retro but modern.anyway enjoy!
