I've been keeping an eye on eBay and scored a mint, vintage George Dickel Whisky bottle for a Saurian Ale conversion. I don't know how this one got overlooked but I got it for $50, shipped. These amber ones usually go for more
This is the correct pale amber color. The glass, leather and brass are in fantastic shape and it has all the stickers, tax stamp, and even the little envelope with a gold foil sticker you cold personalize and attach.
It's almost a shame to do the conversion.
Questions:
Any consenus on the correct paint color? And a source for a small amount? (One bottle's worth)
How wide should the masking tape strip be? And is it painted masking tape or colored gaffer's tape?
Any other tips or advice before I paint it?
