Here's the results of the spoon test. The one on the right has two coats of Alclad Aqua Gloss Clear. Is there a difference between 1 coat and 2? I realize it won't be as much protection, but it also may not dull the reflection as much.

Very nice! Thanks for sharing Tesoe! BTW just to check, you used ALC600 right? BTW I'm looking at the Alclad range now and they have something called "Holomatic chrome" (ALC-205) that's interesting...

I took a look at their line also. Lot of neat stuff. I've wanted to paint some legion beasts with prismatic shells for a long time. Make them look like beetles. If I ever get around to it I might look at Alclad to do it.

FYI I finally took some photos of these two. I actually painted both ages ago, and varnished the second one a while back (when my varnish FINALLY arrived in the mail) but then I was kinda busy and didn't get around to varnishing the second one for a while. They look pretty good; very bright and shiny, though not as mirror-finish-reflective as your Phasma/Sofia. I'm planning to use the chrome on a jack next, but it will be a while because, well, I'm still kinda busy.

That is awesome! I'm still waiting on the quadruped konquest, tesoe!
But seriously well done.
