Painting

I sanded it too much fast. So my new bike doesn't have smooth surface. But I want to ride it right now. I'm like kid.
 Urethane  surfacer's color is cream. I didn't know it.
 The master of Fuuden painted almost of the parts.
The yellow looked shiny.
 This is handle.
 The color of paint and masking tape look same color.
 Main body is painted with Kandy paint. Kandy is one of high quality painting way.
We can see metal or pearl, mica. By these painting way, gradation can't be made.
 At first, surfacer, second silver metalic, at last clear blue are painted.
 I took lesson about painting by the master, then I tried it. this is for the first time.
 The master painted clear for the finish.
 Amazing ! really amazing. I regret that I had to brush the parts more.
 Really nice. Tomorrow, these parts will be built. Then I will ride it. On above photo, we can see new part to stay the handle.
This project isn't about making my new bike just for me. I think that I bring the technical drawing to the prison and the prisoners make this frame then people buy it and enjoy riding it. I want to make such social buisiness cycle in here. Off course I'm very poor so I need the way to earn money for my life.

Fini.
