    My first paints!

    Hey I just thought I owed it to the guys of this forum who are alway posting up good info and all their cool custom paints to post up my firsts paint jobs.

    I have trolled in this forum for a while now wanting to try and get started,
    so last night me and my fishing partner painted some up(he is at Ky lake today with most of them while im at work) I will get better pics of them and hopefully reports of some fish being caught with some of these paints this afternoon.

    Anyhow these are a couple of quick pics from my phone of a few that i painted up, This is really fun and addicting I can already see that. OH and excuse the mess in my work area, I figured out that happens pretty quick also!

    Thanks again and let me know your thoughts/comments

    thanks guys it was a blast and I'm ready 2 get back to my gun soon.
    I think the thing that helped the most was spending some time with my brush and compressor before i started painting.

    I took a couple of night just playing around mixing the paint, adjusting pressure, just painting lines and dots.
    OH btw my setup is a harbor frieght gun, walmart paint, small 2 gallon 80psi max compressor and 30 min epoxy.
    I'm going on my lunch break to get some more colors of paint and supplies.

    THanks again!

    Cheaper to keep a kid in tourney fishing than paying attorneys to keep them out of jail !!
