Flying V refinish green skull

Wanted something a bit more artistic instead of a solid color. It came out better than I expected.

Did you paint this yourself?

Well the image is a waterslide decal that I printed. What I actually painted was the base color and the wing tips to blend the image.

From the photo, that looks crazy good. Almost looks like a hologram. Makes me want to try to do the same thing.

The trick is to use a very bright vibrant color under the image to make it really pop.

I don't like many graphic-painted guitars. I like your graphic-painted guitar.

Yeah, that placement is *chef’s kiss*.

So, the guitar was painted that green color, and the decal was just clear and grayscale/black? That’s a super cool idea.

Yes! I got the idea from a guy who was doing a paint job on a motorcycle gas tank. The possibilities are endless really.

Like I said earlier the color under the image must really be bright or it will lose some details. It doesnt have to be fluo but the brighter the better in my experience.
