 Camo stencil
Cant get on the old site to do a search so if you could please post some pics if you've got a marsh grass style paintjob. Getting ready to paint the boat in the next couple weeks and just looking for some ideas.
Thanks.

 Re: Camo stencil
Here's a couple of my boat that I did. Like BB said, I'll pay someone to paint all my boats from now on. It was a PIA!!!!!!!! This whole not being able to post pictures thing is getting a little ridiculous! http://img258.imageshack.us/img258/7218/pd2no4.jpghttp://img171.imageshack.us/img171/343/pd1is1.jpg

 Re: Camo stencil
Thanks guys. I dont know if I could live with myself if I paid someone else to do it. Mudd- thats exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for the good info. Has anyone used or seen the Styx River Grasslands pattern in person?

 Re: Camo stencil
I also agree on the paying someone else suggestion. I painted mine and had a fancy paint job on it for about a week. I used 2 different colors of green and had to completely strip one of the colors off because the paint would not stick. So now I have double time and effort into it so it could be right. Those guys that do it are to cheap to pass up next time. I wish I wouldn't have been such a dam tight wad when I was doing this boat.

 Re: Camo stencil
if you know a sticker guy (vynyl graphics) they can cut them in any pattern and size for you. I think it's .010 mylar. get all different sizes and make sure they make em where they overlap and match on both sides so there is no skip in the pattern.
