Title: $6 Worth Of Spray Paint, And 2 Hours Later
Post by: Boiker on November 18, 2006, 12:59:00 AM
Thats awesome for a couple of hours work. In fact, that's just awesome. It looks like you spent absolutely ages on it. Very nice.

Well I should add I'm not quite finished as grim_d pointed out its missing detail in the teeth area. I plan on borrowing an airbrush and finishing it that way.


ah you should have mentioned that, look forward to seeing that done.

Just use a satin or flat clearcoat. Art work is very vulnerable to damage so I would highly reccomend clearing it.

Don't clearcoat it. Flat black is the shit. I've got the same idea for mine but with a different logo. Be careful with that thing it'll scratch easy!

First of all... it looks VERY good and very slick.  Didn't go overboard with an un-needed window or do anything else really, just a VERY good, pretty original paint job.  I really like it.

My question: how did you make the blood "splatter?"
I think its really good and unique.

Thanks.

The red splatter was really simple to do, although the black paint made it a little difficult.

All I did was sand the box down, spray 1 tack coat, then 2 full coats of gloss red. let it dry 15 mins. taped off the symbol and then sprayed it with flat block. While the black was still wet (only about 1-2 mins.) I dabbed the black paint with a wrinkled up grocery bag(plastic). It leaves a really cool pattern and takes very little extra work.
