The Devil is in the Details.

"kommetgrau" (comet gray) is originally a color for mercedes benz automobiles back in the early 2000s. it's a metallic silver color and gives off a satin-like finish.

i personalized it by making it a bit darker. because of this, the "satin effect" turned into a "shimmer effect". the paint, when applied to the body, looks rough, like you threw fine sand on the wet body and then putting a layer of silver-gray paint.

the result is a slight shimmer when the car is moving while passing under a lightsource. that's the actual effect i intended. after all, the devil is really in the details.

that said, this blog is mostly about cars, with a little bit of gaming, tailored fashion, and tech thrown in. you might see a little bit of comics in here, as well as food and architecture. hello and welcome.
