i just talked to a buddy of mine..hes a graffic designer and insane artist! hes coming up next week and hes gonna help me with the stencil work..i was thinking scenes of death and destruction on the bow and along the front part of the ski. when you look at it from far away it will look like a solid color but up close you will see the details :firedevil:

Sounds sick.

Hey bro WTF is up w/ the pannels that appear to be 5200 to the side of tray? Is that from someone defoaming? Did you get rid of that mess and reglass propperly? Or maybe I am seeing things as no one else asked :dunno:

I would attempt to use a 300 ot 320 grit for final sanding unless your going to put assloads of paint and sand between layers. I have used 220 and could see sand marks through 2 coats of paint and 3 coats of clear, just my 2 cents.

so insert color of choice into the shaded area

insert scenes of post apocalyptic surf nightmare scenes: nuclear bombs going off, creating huge waves with standup riders snaking bodyboarders and longboarders alike forcing them onto the exposed bonecrunching reef etc etc basicallyt just a crazy collage of cool stuff

yea LPW sticker on the hood..full spec on the nose..

its either that or habiscus flowers in the same place as the collage..no im not kidding..i was thinking like a Hawaiian shirt or some boardshorts..that would be alot easier
