i saw the kit looks like a great starting point.. but i cant find it to buy on-line in left handed any ideas
-
wow great idea !!!!i know a guy who did one walls in house like that..looks like peikock"spelling" ill see where got wood from..

i have friend who does tatoos and comic books .i guess i'd have him paint the wings and the woman with water base ontop of final finish background then i would clear coat about 15 times then sand and buff...you the last one to me is hardest one, thats why i put it last... lol i'm so lost for another idea i'd like to do flying V bodie with cropduster body "you know the yellow and green metal ribit "and inlay of bi-wing cropduster plane flying spinning in 3d look like on falling bird one on PRS 22 guitars.. the whole reason i want to learn this is because i'm so sick of paying tons for nice left handed guitars

i have 4 ideas in my head and here they are.... 1.i was thinking about buying carvin starter kit then practicing my building & painting skills on it ,but are there any pros/cons with this idea .. 2.ok i was thinking for that mahogany sg body i have i may do a dark red swirl effect as one of the tutorials ...that would be evil dont know if i'd bleach it or not yet 3.i have maple gibson body i got of ebay . i thought it would be kool to do a gray dye effect on it ..ill use dye/stain info i got from my other post .. 4.my best idea i love danzig song "her black wing",well with that in mind i always wanted a white jag body guitar with a black hair haired spanish woman that has black angel wings that curve with guitar body and has white fretboard with black onyx inlay... ok i think i have lost it..but this is best place to lose it...

heres the pm i sent i figure could hurt posting it... heres the deal i have mahogany sg guitar bodie unfinished i got of ebay all routing is done already.. i just have 3 questions and ill leave you alone . 1.if i wanted to dye this guitar a nice ghost gray,is this steps i'd follow 1 use filler and of course sand it 2 add sand sealer and sand it 3 apply dye darker at first so grain of wood would show up better. sand it then apply ligher colour for disired colour 4 apply clear coat up to 12 or more times and dont sand till final coat has dryed use 400 fine paper then buff polish..and i'm done.. so are these steps right? 2.is there anything i'm missing? 3.any tips i need to know about the wood in question or anything ?

if i wanted a nice faded dye look like on gibson faded guitars ,would i get unfinished bodie sand it,use spray gun light coats then clear coat with spray gun? the reason i ask is i'm lefty and i'm sick & tired of paying an arm and leg for guitars that cost rightys half that price and well i have time and tools to do this just never put a guitar together ..seems simple for basic electric guitars painting only thing i'm kinda new at
