How much paint did you use?

I am nearing the end of my paint process. I am wondering if the amount of paint I have used is close to the norm. Mine is a RV7a
For primer I used VariPrime 3 quarts
For paint I used a single stage PPG Concepts
Main color white I used about 2 gallons
Biege accents I used 1 quart
Green accents I used 2 quarts
about 20% went into the air as most was painted with a HPHV gun.
It seems like a lot.
 
Jeff:
Sounds like about 20 pounds of paint found its way onto your AC. I think you'll find this number to be close to the average that you would get at a professional shop. Any pictures?
