New Paint laid
spent some time taping off a design on my tank... turned out nice so i sprayed it
I did the left side skull first and then laid down the flames... while drawing and cutting the flames i accidentally pressed my hand onto the skull so i'm gonna tape it again and spray another layer

Re: New Paint laid
Nice....I ilike that a lot.
Did you trace your design on the tape and then cut it with a knife on the tank? Just curious, looks like you drew it out on the tape.

Re: New Paint laid
I traced the skull... then freehand drew the flames on the right side, then to get the mirror i traced the flames and laid it over the tape on the other side and drew it out, and yeah i cut it with a utility knife
the flame design i found one i liked on the internet and just remembered the layout (i have a semi-photographic memory)
