Thanks for all of the nice comments! It's quite gratifying knowing that fellow ATers approve.
cojaclynsy - The bulk of the work was spread out over about a week. And it only took that long because I didn't want to tape over newly painted areas. The taping was time-consuming; but it made the actual painting a cinch.

Really meticulous work. I wish I were a bigger fan of the final product but I really admire the obsessive attention to getting it right.
