I wetsanded all the silver flake today. Next I'll tape off all the black graphics.

Silver has always been such a hard color for me to paint.
some skill there

**Frank Molé** · 02-02-2016, 05:52 PM

looken good,nice work...

**AZMIDLYF** · 02-02-2016, 06:01 PM

Some interesting tape lines...

**Velocity72** · 02-02-2016, 07:51 PM

Beautiful as usual. Agree with tux, a stipe or accent or two and let the lines of the hull carry things.

I've been taping the scallop graphics all afternoon

A couple of accents or stripes and walk away with that paint gun!!!.....

Agreed. He lost me at "scallops".

Going to be a pretty cool setup... but sometimes less is more. To each their own, and it will be a nice ride when done.

Hes not making it simple "that's just Randy"-its not conservative-
I was over there looking at it and he is doing scallops, fades, marble etc.

It will be nice for sure but he considers my personal taste boring.

Less is more to me too, but it is a screaming eagle boat and to me those look like eagle wings. Maybe I am a dreamer but with a heart of gold.

Randy is the absolute master with graphic design and paint. I have personally witnessed many of his creations and each one is beyond stunning! Randy has a unique ability to visualize and create design and color that most of us can't begin to imagine. The scallop graphics and anything else that Randy decides will be Fantastic. The 22 Talon will be a one of a kind master piece! Believe me. Every one of Randy's customs is stunning.

**WILDMAN** · 02-03-2016, 08:03 PM

I've been taping for the last two days. Finally got to spraying the black at 5:45 tonight. Just finished a little while ago.

There has never been one that I didn't like but for sure some that I have loved. As you said, Randy has a talent and vision ability that most of us can only dream of-- I am really glad to see he and Todd working together so that he has a quality hull to create with. He is painting my River Rocket next and when we talk about what I want he just says "boring".
