Finish Style

This Nova has been painted in a "Anodized Multicolored" style, with the Graphite finish. In this style, the candy coat may be applied in a multicolored pattern. In the real world, methods could include silk-screening or adherable stencils. That said, this particular skin has been mostly painted in shades of gray. The look of the Graphite finish is affected by its pattern index. The skin uses the old legacy model.
