Thread: Custom guitar Painting

Did a few murals on panelvans back in the day, havent done much since.
I love the mechanical themes
Id like to see a completed guitar to get an overall feel of the graphics
Do you plan to post any pics?
Looking good so far
Dave

Finished it off last night, just needs the clear coat.

if people are interested i will put pics up of the next few i am doing.
Also starting a set of drums shortly, in a Bio Mechanical type theme.

When I looked at the first pics I thought that this was going to look awful. I was dramatically wrong and I am now filled with envy at OPs artistic talent.
Well done.

Brilliant!!! If you have done more, I would love to see them

New business maybe?? I also want to get one I'm building painted. Thinking of blue but want it painted to look like its wrapped in barbed wire. Not sure id just the body or maybe put a few strands up the neck. I did find this guy, jabairbrushing.com | He's in melbourne. Another one is a guy who puts cards at my Motorbike shop, The honda dealer in ferntree gully. I didn't grab one then but can always go back for one.

I have done a couple of others, at the moment i am trying to get a portfolio together, of pictures,effects and the different sort of things i can do.
There are plenty of airbrush artists around, but only one, in Melb, who specializes in Guitars. I have some good things in the pipeline, and will keep you all updated.
Heres a couple of bits i have done in the last couple of months.

Your work is incredible, you should be pleased, just out of interest, do you do many commercial jobs?

I have never done anything with air-brushing, however we have a spray booth at work when we 2-pac kitchens, is getting a run while air-brushing a worry, or does it just not happen?

Regards,
Dave..

Never gt runs, the paint is too thin, and almost dries once it touchs the surface.
You certainly can get runs in the clear though.
