I got the teeth to paint, then I am painting a Rose over the next few days.

[daveb]

teeth done, plus you wont believe this I have painted a flower  :wtf bit different. I still got another 2 stencils to go on the Rose.

[daveb]

full length photos of the guitar, all I got left is the Latin words on the banner then multiple layers of clear coat.

[EvilBetty]

Pretty wicked.  Lucky kid!

[daveb]

I have been asked to paint a red rose on a tank for a Suzuki.

never done a fuel tank before. although on the guitar project I never painted a rose or a banner until now.

[daveb]

banner complete 'to live, to love & to die' in latin  :?  why couldn't want Welsh on the guitar 'byw, caru, marw'.

just multple layers of cleat coat left and job done, ready for the next project.

[daveb]

well, finished the clearcoat, about 4 coats from rattle cans on monday just to protect the artwork, then today about another 4 coats of crystal clear, using the works spray booth.



you can see the metallic black base coat I used now


I also used a pearlescent white base paint for the flams.


the clearcoat is touch dry at the moment, I got about 48hrs before I return it, so it is drying on my sons guitar stand in free space.
