Born Paint 001 - Born Chrome 30mL

The low opacity is exactly what I needed for experimenting with different undercoats—over a dark base it reads almost like deep liquid metal, while a white base gives it a brighter, mirror-like pop. Dries smooth without brush marks, which surprised me for a chrome-type paint.

Took a gamble on how this would behave over a dark primer and the chrome effect shifts beautifully depending on what's underneath. The low opacity really lets you play with the base coat to get different plating looks without needing a second bottle. Dries smooth and even, no brush marks left behind

Layered this over a dark gunmetal base and the chrome effect shifted to this smoky, almost liquid-metal depth — the low opacity really lets the undercoat do the talking. Dries smooth, no brush marks, and a little goes a long way for the price.
