This looks pretty sweet. Nothing like raiding the wife's nailpolish drawer for model car paint.

Chris, the wood looks great, do you add this product to the paint or do you put a coat of it on top of the paint? - Bill

Bill- I put the crackle paint down first then when the paint was dry i took the weathered wood distressed ink and vintage photo distressed ink and put it on top of the paint and it just filled in the cracks. i also sprayed a mist of water on the inks to blend them together.

Bought some stencils at my local hobby shop,the stencils are from house of color and seemed to turn out pretty good.
