Just a quick post showing the progression of the piece ‘leech’ the frame of the chair has been painted in chrome the arms in gold and I’ve mounted the vice i also have some crushed red velvet on order for the backrest. The only downside to this piece is the paint I’m using to paint it. Although the finish is superb, it marks as soon as you touch it with any pressure at all. I found that lacquer couldn’t be used as a layer of protection as it dulls the finish of the paint. This is bothering me at the moment I need to get the chair somewhere safe once its all finished, hopefully within next week all being well.
Am I being too precious?
