the fool on the hill Posted February 25, 2005 Report Share Posted February 25, 2005 I have a plan to get a picture on my next project, But dont know if it will work out. THE PLAN 1. strip the guitar and paint it black. 2. print off picture to good quility paper and use spray glue to stick the picture to the guitar. 3. Lightly fade the edges of the picture with paint. 4. lacquer over the guitar to finish. Has anyone tried this before? Would the paper bubble? Will the laquer take to the paper? + = Photoshop preview Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted February 28, 2005 Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 You'll want to do a light misting coat so the paper gets a seal first then you can go for heavier coats. Hi thomasteven whats up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the fool on the hill Posted February 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2005 Hey Brian, Thanks for the tip thomasteven, I did do a search but it didnt come up with much and the one post i found usefull didn`t have a replie to whether it actually worked or not. I did read the tutorial on a fabric finish, but i will search before i ask anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somewhere in the forum someone did it with beer labels and someone else did it with comic book pages - that may help you find the threads (I'm not sure where they are any more).

thomasteven Posted March 1, 2005 Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 I've seen multiple posts about this over the last few weeks. I didn't know that they weren't answered "well". If they were't you could always bump it and see if you'll get a decent reply again. Sorry for being quick to react. Friends? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As i will get a photoprint shop to print the picture onto paper for me, So it should be good paper and good ink thats used. Also i will be keeping track of my progress and logging it on a website for future reference Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
