Repaint of a guitar..bagged, purple pearl coated and skull added...

Typical realtor sign...

Okay, so not every job is funky...but it's a living. [Wink]

Yep, we all have to do the dollar making stuff that's kinda mundane!! The guitar and Sprayfoam sign look like they had the fun factor tho!!
Nice work Ray

Lookin good Ray.

I have had to do a few site plan panels time to time and the one thing that I do is just put the lot number in and leave off the word lots, it cleans them up just a little.

Keep posten, Sam

About five years ago I was asked to create a logo for a spray foam outfit. I had a heck of a time coming up with a design. I LOVE your solution. Very creative.

I agree with Chad...that foam looks so thick and sticky it's scary...Really nice treatment there Ray.

Thanks for the kind words, guys and gals.

Dawud,

The vinyl was cut, sprayed with OS UV Clear, and left overnight to dry. Once applied, the airbrushing was done with One Shot lettering enamel and freehand masks.

The guitar was painted with OS purple, bagged with magenta lightly, and then sprayed with a mix of reduced UV clear and purple pearls. Once dried, the skull was airbrushed on and 3 more layers of clear finished it up nice and smooth.
