Default 96 f250 repaint

Just figured some of y'all might to watch the process as I start getting my truck ready for paint this weekend. It's a 96 f250 7.3l 4x4, has scratches from bumper to bumper from the trails and dings and dents from the previous owner catching big limbs as well. I have a full spray booth at work where I can do all my painting.
I pulled the bed off to make it a tad easier to paint. I started doing some body work I will grab pictures of that Tom when I get to work.

As of now this is the color scheme I'm thinking about, feel free to comment or suggest other ideas.

I like that just as much, but I have a little trouble laying down metallic without it striping or grouping,so it will be much easier for me to spray the metallic just a few passes on the side I think compared to trying to reach over the hood and roof.

I started doing some body work, I still need to do a few more passes under the f250 logo.

My passenger side of my bed has a nice size crinkle in it from sliding it into a tree or something I think, not sure how to go about fixing that because of its size.
