Ok let's have a vote. :D The choices are glossy black, Blue stained glass (semi-transparent), or Red stained glass (semi-transparent). And all of this with gold pin striping. Let me know what you guys think. And happy early thanksgiving!

I used the Duplicolor Metalcast in red and it came out nice. Comes in a few colors too.

I hope I'm not making this boring. If so I will finish the horn and go straight to the phonograph. I've decided to try blue semi-transparent with gold pin striping. It will be a few days until I post anything else. Right now I'm waiting for the new crank to arrive for the Triumph.

Finally picking back up on this. Sorry for the delay I've just been very busy. Any way I need some opinions on the horn. Below are pictures of the horn with the silver base coat. My original plan was to use red metal cast paint that Bob suggested which looks very close to the original semi transparent paint. But I'm tempted to leave it as is because it looks so good. What do you guys think?
