Comparison Painted - Unpainted

Started to paint my no. 03. I used Rust-Oleum Hammered Black.

 

I like how fresh it looks just painted, without sacrificing the original look and approximate original color.

 

I was missing one nut, and I couldn't get the exact same size, so I just got all new nuts. They are a bit thicker but I think it might actually make it look a bit tougher.
