You need to do the taping better. I can see where it kinda got by.

[coletrain]

what kind of tape are you using to mask off?

[CB7CH!CK]

not bad.. i mean you tried and after you fix it tomorrow it will look really good
i like the idea tho..

[AcEr]

not bad not bad at all i liek just go over it again and it will look sick

[cvc7chris]

i know, i used that blue painter tape...it's like the best imo..

i just didn't press the tape down enought at certain points and i guess the paint got into the white section..
o wellll..

ima redo it tommorow until it's almost perfect...

I like the look and the creativity, just gotta get the precision.

It's going to be hard to tape at the words. You could grind them off and have a nice smooth surface to work with for something graphic like that.

[cvc7chris]

i wish i had the tools to grind. i don't even have a power sander lmao..

paint stripper, hand sanding, and a sand thing adapted to my electric drill..

that's about it for me..

but yeah hopefully i can get it more presize..
