Thanks Ekki! I'm quite surprised by the results, being my first bare metal finished. I relied solely on the gloss finish to give the look however Tamiya's X-22 nearly destroyed everything. Anyone else experience this? I ended up using Humbrol gloss varnish diluted with artists spirits. Very disappointed with Tamiya, however, with further research, it looks like the X-22 is not a varnish but an additive of sorts! Also tried panel lines with Acrylic for the first time, having always used enamels, and it was terrible. But I'm otherwise happy.
