Are those roller scuffs on the wall from the ceiling in pic #7? I hate that - Sorry, not critisizing, it just pee's me off when I see someone do that - Bad habit/bad practice.
Looking forward to seeing the finished job tho

Yeah that is usually a huge no no in my projects but I was trying to beat the electrician who was milling about and irritating me, so I had to rush. They look extra heavy because of the color difference but they are Pro400 flat and disappeared quickly under the final coat.
As for the finish pics I will probably ship them to a select few in PM's that I know truly enjoy seeing the work of other craftsmen.
My sensitive nature can't handle anymore internet trolling...

I actually like what you did. Am a fan of Modern Masters products. (thier glazes have a longer open time than BM's, Ralph Lauren and others) Love the Metallics. Wish I got the chance to work with it more.
The cut lines is what I think most are refering to. (or the way they appear on my screen)

If your still looking for work I saw a opening at The Perkins School for painters today. I think you would be perfect!

Not that I care, or know WISEPAINTER, but I don't think he is looking for work or help from you NEPS.

I think there are plenty here that aware of faux techniques and what they cost.

Without summoning teh Mighty Googlez0rz...tell us quickly how much this particular material cost that I have specified!
HA!
I do however like the Faux Effects protective clear coat, it is nice. The company I spent months with as an apprentice used a buhttload of both products.
The best was a full shimmer stone room.
POPS!!
