After years of watching mates do it, I thought it was about time I had a go myself.
I mate donated a dagger brush, I bought some enamels and heres the results......

My first attempt, its pretty random, just trying to get used to the brush............


My second attept, has a lot more form to it........



It'll be a while before I put brush to car, but as I always say "you only improve as you get better":P

Thanks for looking,

Rhettro.

Talk to Darryl at Transart for some tips, he might be full of shit, but he can work a brush.

That looks great!
Pity I'm not down your way, I'd be more than happy for you to cut sick with the brush on my car! :thumb

Look forward to seeing some more of your work.

Rhett, you can practice on my new bootlid if you like, will make for a nice conversation piece. You seem to be picking it up pretty quick man.
P.S. I can see your undies on the clothes horse.

Ha Ha, Man I shouldn't have taken that shot in the laundry!

I'll do a few more boxes then I might give your boot lid a go.
