Contax II black paint project

[dee]

My Contax II beater is now destined for metallic silver blue paint and tan leather .
I wanted something delicate and unusual , it was to be a Kiev , but the Contax was pretty rough !
Having seen some of the paint colours used on Leica M cameras , I think that this is quite restrained .

Hi How does it look now, 4 years on? I like the idea of personalising a camera

I think I might fill the Contax name with some white or ivory color. Otherwise, looks rather cool, although it reminds me too much of the poorly made Soviet knockoffs.
