Have you noticed what the skull is crunch on in Phils Avatar? Cheeky little bugger aint he.

Nice to see a photo Phil that comes close to doing it justice.

Les,
This part was inspired by your deflection to the dark side.



Thanks For the comments, the paint is something you have to experience first hand to get the full effect.

Message to all Darksiders .....

There is a reason Phil has gone to the expense of these murals.

He expects that we are gonna be distracted by checking out these skulls in our mirrors.

Don't fall for it.

Default Long enough

I must admit I not into that stuff but it seamed appropriate for ther car.

Les the whole paint took 12 weeks, the body prep was 6weeks the murals took 3weeks, but was only one week in actual work. and 3 weeks for the candy, chop and flow coat 3 times.

The photos do not come close to showing how good the paint is. In the light it changes colour and just pops.

What will really spin you guys out is the detail and hard work that has gone into the build of this car. Everything is done perfectly, and is designed to last.
