I have found that back painting and/or painting the tubes can have an effect on the look of the finished body. I colored the epoxy black on this one, and it seriously darkened the blank. I should have colored the epoxy with a lighter blue color. As for painting the tubes, I don't stand them on end. I put them on a piece of threaded rod to spray paint them.
