    I'd think here in the custom section would be fine. If you start taking customers and the majority of your work is for clients you can always ask a mod to move the thread to the dealer section.

      OP: "Hey guys, here's my first attempt at painting, it's not perfect but I'm pretty happy with it, what do you think?"

        Always wondered how splash Anne’s were masked off. How do acid wash’s work? Do a base color then top color, finish off by splashing acid on it to wash off some top color?

          Base color. Then mask (nail polish or rubber cement) wash in bleach to remove non mask color, repeat. Use a sponge with bleach for "wash" effects.

                      That's amazing. You gonna build a running marker out of this, or are you just anodizing random aluminum you have on hand?
