Tank & Stand Paint

I was a little bored today so I deceided to repaint the platform for my air tank.... It's not done and still needs some final touches. My buddy did the striping on the tank and I painted the platform, you can't see it to well but the skull is etched and the right side of the lettering is etched, I don't know how it's done normally but I used a big nail for my etching(LOL) let me know what you think!


Oh yeah, ther are photos......

Re: Tank & Stand Paint

I think I'm going to get my dremmel out to clean up the etching, make the lines straighter and more defined on the writting, scuff it up a little more and it should be done.
