So although I was pretty happy with the overall way the purple HSH Superstrat came out (you can see the entire process HERE), I was never really happy with the shade of purple I chose. Gonna dress her up a bit with some purple glitter paint. Oh, and I've decided to name her "Rain".

Here's what she looks like before I give her the new dress:

And here's what her new color will be:

I forgot about the shielding. I'll just mask it off with painter's tape.

Taped, lightly sanded, and ready to be painted.

Three coats of glitter paint. Gonna start the poly coats tomorrow. Still not sure if I wanna go with full gloss or semi-gloss.

Decided to refinish her using CrystaLac poly. I think she came out great!
