everyone on here makes detailed customized paint work sound easy. honestly there are only a handful of people in the country who have the artistic ability to do it. seriously based on 315's notebook drawings, the kid can't even draw. all the pro's I've seen with sick airbrush and custom graphic skills are insane at drawing. it's one thing to paint a boat a solid color or add some stripes. It's a whole other to do ghost graphics, carbon fiber weave, smoke, graphics, shadowing, etc. as I mentioned earlier, I had a guy do the deck of my boat who was insane. anyone can pm me for pictures. I don't have my hopes up, especially based on what I have seen done.

dude I've seen artists sh*t out drawings in 3 mins that look like Picasso drew it. art is an inherent born with talent. something that can't be taught. I stand by my comments until proven otherwise, which I don't have high hopes for..

With the awesome easy to use catalyzed primers and base coat clear coats these days a Fukin retarded Monkey could block ,tape and spray a decent pain job fresh out of the cage.
Tape and spray some Awlgrip or Imron in less than perfect temps than we will see what you are made of.

Please re-read my comments. I said solid paint and a couple stripes is do-able by anyone who has some skill, knowledge, and patience to work with paint. What seperates the men from the boys is like I said...real graphics. i.e. smoke, shadows, ghosting, etc. there are only a few people in New England who are really good at spraying big boats in custom graphics. drawing is the easy sh*t. And from what I've seen. Yikes. Working with paint is exponentially harder. I'm willing to bet the top painters like taod, hunter, etc are sick at drawing and art in general.
