Got bored at work yesterday...

[lincpimp]

So most of you know that I own an auto body and paint shop. Well my painter had the week off last week so I had to do his job (and my own job) and kinda got in a painting mood. His bus was late yesterday so I had to paint a few things, and found myself waiting for the paint to dry. So i scared up a boat I had laying around and started to do a little custom paint job.

Used an audi green, mustang chrome yellow with added yellow pearl, and some good ole ford oxford white. I had some undetermined silver metallic laying around, so I gave that a try for the tiki dudes! Bamboo and tiki dudes were done with stencils, the color breaks were freehand with fineline tape. Not too bad for a rush job...

Reminds of this song I heard on a cruise one time...

Nice job! How late was your painter? Can you post a more pics of that left hand? Maybe a few with the fingers spread wide open.

Thanks, he showed up this morning, did not get back into town till 7pm. Go Greyhound!

You are sick, why do you want me to take a pic of my hand? You hand porn guys are getting a little out of hand (no pun intended).

It'll look even better if you throw some Blue after the Yellow.

That looks awesome. Made the switch to water born paint yet? My buddy recently had to at his work and he hates it, but nobody likes change.

Very nice work James.

That's beauty man, did you do the design yourself?

Someone must have done a real job on you 'hand' guys, some sort of 'handjob'...

Exceptional for a rush job

Luckily I am in LA, the armpit of the US, we will most likely not have to change over for a while... No real epa activity here.

HARHAR

I did the the "wave" design where the color changes freehand with fineline tape, the bamboo and tiki dudes were stencils that I sprayed thru.

Thanks, maybe 1 hr in it total from start to finish, mostly took the time I was waiting for other paint to dry, kept me off the computer for the morning!

I forgot to mention. Don't forget the stars, there should be 5 of them .

Edit: If you need help, look at my Avatar for the colors.

I had a feeling it had something to do with Brazil... I can do a themed boat, you just need to send me some pics or images, or logos or something that represents the country, other than the flag!

What brand of paint do you normally work with linc?

[lincpimp]

I use basf r&m polyester basecoat, and the basf limco clearcoat line. This boat has some off brand clear on it, as it was free!
