I don’t half swap tooo much but I really like half swaps of the same color but different shades. I have a sakura pink atlab ZERO and one half is a very pale pink and the other half is even paler. I like the subtlety to it. ---

That’s not bad. It’s a riff on silver / black. Silver gold is not great. Red blue is kinda fun. And silver blue and silver red and silver black work.. but silver black is imo best. ---

Wow you posted 4 half swaps I don’t dislike which is really rare! Silver and blue is very solid. ---

On one hand, it’s a black/white swap. On the other hand, it’s a bape swap. So whenever I get tired of either way of thinking about it, I can swap the cabal guts and make it blue/green on both sides. ---
