Thank you Mark! No rust, and straight are really my only priorities right now.

after that, the topcoat will make it or break it.
If nobody highly skilled offers to shoot it for me (which I assume will happen, given the lame response received so far)
then I'll have to buy extra materials, practice, develop something on my own and set up the shop a little
differently to do a makeshift booth. Tentative plans have been made and so on.
