Title: custom painting techniques Post by: 58mintwag on May 22, 2010, 02:09:52 PM here is a lace bonnet that i did at tafe, step by step
firstly i preped and painted the bonnet in basecoat white then measured and masked up the shape i wanted to remain white (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/05052010.jpg) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/05052010001.jpg) i was kind of making it up as i went along adding extra scallops and curves (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/05052010003.jpg) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/05052010002.jpg) then i placed the lace down on the bonnet made sure it looked semetrical taped it in place then painted a verycourse silver over the lace (forgot to take a photo at this stage) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010001.jpg) then i made up some binder with a green candy in it. i wanted the candy to be darker on the edges and kind of blend into the middle so i painted evenly around the taped lines. (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010.jpg) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010002.jpg) then a couple more coats over the entire thing with appropriate flash off times in-between. (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010003.jpg) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010005.jpg) then i unmasked it (carefully) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010006.jpg) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010007.jpg) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010008.jpg) you can see how the silver really stands up through the candy. then i gave it a few coats of clear. (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010009.jpg) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010010.jpg) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010011.jpg) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010012.jpg) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010013.jpg) (http://i630.photobucket.com/albums/uu28/58mintwag/06052010014.jpg) i ran out of time, but i would like to block the whole thing back with 1200p grit paper (wet) and the clear the whole thing again just to try remove all the lines on the edges. hope you like it, would love to do a whole car like this would be grrrreat!

I had a go at some lacework on an FJ guard not so long ago. My attempt wasn't succesful though :-\ Title: Re: custom painting techniques Post by: customFC on May 22, 2010, 09:23:52 PM Cool!
